Old Mill Hotel & Lodge

'Bath's most beautifully located hotel, by the River Avon with lovely gardens & stunning views over the countryside'.

The Old Mill is located on a site that housed a flour mill until 1907. Since then it has been developed into an attractive hotel with lovely bedrooms, all en suite, banqueting suites and a delightful restaurant by the river with a unique waterwheel feature. The banqueting rooms, restaurant and bars have stunning views of the River Avon and the beautiful countryside surrounding it. The picture is completed by the pretty hotel gardens, alongside the river, which is popular with rowers, boating enthusiasts and for fishing holidays. The current owners, two very experienced hoteliers and restaurateurs acquired The Old Mill in April 1998. Since then they have completed an extensive refurbishment programme, resulting in all bedrooms, banqueting rooms and the restaurant and bar, being totally redecorated and refurbished. Please note that the hotel has no lift.

Food & beverage

The Waterwheel Restaurant is surrounded by sliding glass windows leading out onto the lovely gardens. The gardens have picturesque views of the river and the surrounding countryside and are beautifully illuminated in the evening. The restaurant takes its name from the unique working waterwheel, which is another attractive feature. However, the most important aspect of any restaurant is the quality of the food and the service, and we are justifiably proud of both in the waterwheel. Our menu is based on the principles of using quality raw materials, freshly cooked and attractively presented. There is a wide selection of dishes to choose from, including fresh fish, grills, vegetarian items and dishes with a Mediterranean influence. In addition to the extensive à la carte menu, there is also a 3-course fixed price menu, offering plenty of choice. These fixed price menus offer exceptional value for money, as do the individually priced dishes on the à la carte menu. In addition to dinner being served every evening of the week, the Waterwheel Restaurant is open for lunch on Sunday, when a special 3-course fixed price menu is available, offering plenty of options for each course, including a choice of 3 different roasts. Children no older than 12 years old receive a discount on the fixed price of this menu.

The Waterwheel Restaurant is entirely non-smoking throughout.
