An historic former mill with approx. 5 acres, equestrian facilities and an income-generating annexe.
Nestled between the Forest of Dean and the Wye Valley, Woodmill Farm is a unique former mill set within approximately 5 acres of level pasture, paddocks and gardens, bordered by a natural freshwater stream. An outstanding equestrian property, it benefits from a menage, stable yard and direct access to excellent hacking through surrounding lanes and woodland.
Dating back to the 16th century, the property retains remarkable period features, including the original mill wheel and grain hoppers, while offering spacious and comfortable family accommodation. The main house provides four bedrooms, two generous reception rooms and an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and family room. A connected yet self-contained three-bedroom annexe, currently operated as a successful holiday let, offers excellent income potential or flexible multi-generational living.
A range of substantial outbuildings includes the mill wheel room, stone workshops and stores, three stables, tack room and additional ancillary accommodation. An extensive in-and-out driveway surrounds the property, providing ample parking and easy access for larger vehicles.
A rare opportunity to acquire a character-filled country home with equestrian facilities, income potential and exceptional rural surroundings, all within easy reach of local amenities.

I love that Woodmill Farm feels like something from a storybook — a 16th-century mill with its original wheel still in place, surrounded by five acres of paddocks, woodland rides and a babbling stream, a complete delight!
