About this property

West Mill, Wareham is located 800m from town on banks of River Piddle

Bookings are based on 7 day increments with a changeover on Saturdays.
Contact me for short stay requests and late bookings.

Situated on Wareham Common approximately 800m from the centre of Wareham surrounded by water meadows and a working dairy farm. The apartment occupies the ground floor of a Grade 2 listed water mill dating back to c1750. The River Piddle runs through the garden on one side and a stream on the other. The apartment is fresh, modern and sleeps 4. During peak season we have a 7 night minimum stay but out of season we are open to shorter breaks.
Bed 1 has a king size bed, TV with Freesat and a modern en-suite shower room, wardrobe, chest of drawers and bedside cabinets. There are french doors to the garden.
Bed 2 has large twin beds, TV with Freesat, window to front and use of the modern bathroom with shower over bath. Wardrobe, chest of drawers, bedside cabinet and dressing table.
Both showers have good water pressure from a combi boiler.
The lounge has 2 x leather reclining sofas, 1 electric and 1 manual. 52" wall mounted TV with Freesat & DVD player. Windows to side & front with French door to garden. There is a quiet area to the front with another sofa and oak dresser. A room divider is full of DVD's to watch.
The kitchen is large and has a farmhouse type kitchen table. Good to gather around when a meal is being prepared. Large range cooker with easy clean induction hob, washing machine (Not washer/dryer), dishwasher, microwave, large fridge freezer and plenty of cupboards. It is in a modern ivory shaker style with Oak worktops and Farmhouse type sink. The kitchen French doors provide the access to the garden.
There is a very large garden to the rear. We have allotted a section of the formal garden immediately outside of the apartment for your use with garden table and chairs, sunshade The rest of the garden is a bit wilder and lightly wooded with the river running its length and a stream in the middle. Venturing to the end of the garden finds some nice quiet spots but children should always be accompanied in the garden due to the proximity of the water.
Location is ideal. Being far enough away from the town but only a 15 minute walk to the shops and many pubs and restaurants.
There is ample parking just outside the front door.

Peaceful location near to the town
Very well equipped apartment in a beautiful and quiet location. Great walks near by including RSPB Arne, south west coast path, purbeck way and the beaches of Studland. Great short break.

Tranquil get away
Extremely well equipped property in perfect quiet location, but in easy reach of Wareham. Lots of well marked walking trails straight from the property. Good location to explore this part of Dorset. We had one minor issue while staying which was quickly sorted by the owner with no fuss or inconvenience to us.

Perfect accommodation for our needs
The Mill was just perfect for our needs. It was immaculately clean and well appointed throughout. The beds were comfortable and it was great for each of us ( 2 single women) to have our own bathrooms. It was very quiet with the sound of trickling water coming from the stream in the garden. An idyllic spot.

About the host

Hosted by John Cousins

Host profile image
Originally from London I moved to Dorset in 1996. I always loved the country, fishing and wildlife having spent nearly all my weekends in rural Oxfordshire. Here we have it all and the addition of the coast and beaches. My dream home.

What makes this property unique

Uniquely the apartment offers a rural location so close to town. Parking is easy and the town is easy walking distance. Returning to the property is always a joy as we exit the town and drive down the farm track to the weir on the river to be greeted by cows and other wildlife.
