Oriri presents Boddington Mill, a stunning countryside retreat steeped in history and rural charm. Multiple levels intersect the original mill parts for a generous and sociable living space. A south-facing garden includes alfresco dining, wood-fired hot tub, and large lawn, home to fruit-bearing trees and wildlife. Bedrooms feature luxury bedding; vaulted, oak-beamed ceilings; and period windows. Guests will enjoy fine comforts, modern media, and a kitchen fit for the highest culinary ambitions. The space Boddington Mill sits in a picturesque hamlet outside Cheltenham, home to its own excellent pub/restaurant and web of public footpaths. Cheltenham racecourse is a 10 minute drive away and the town centre is 15 minutes. Sleeping Quarters. Boddington Mill has three gorgeous bedrooms that comfortably sleep up to 6 people in a 3 or 4 bed arrangement. Our bedding is consciously sourced to minimise environmental footprint and provide the highest levels of comfort. Bedroom 1. The master bedroom comes with an en-suite bathroom and super king bed for extra sleeping space. Situated on the top floor, the room has high vaulted ceilings, and views out onto the lawn and water feature. Bedroom 2. Bedroom two has a king size bed and seated, snug area. Also, situated on the top floor, the room matches the high beamed ceilings of the Master bedroom and features blackout curtains, dual aspect period windows, and storage space aplenty. Bedroom 3. In bedroom three, guests can choose between a super king bed or two standard singles. Separated from the living area by old oak double doors, the room is warm and cosy and houses a Captain's writing desk, perfect as a private work area. Living & Dining Rooms. The mill shaft is a striking centrepiece to the living spaces, in which a large mezzanine lounge overlooks the dining room, which in turn overlooks the kitchen. Tall windows intersect the lower levels for further cohesion and an abundance of natural light. The living room is generously proportioned with plenty of comfortable seating. You'll find a modern TV and entertainment set up, including Netflix and Sky Sports as well as multiple board games for interactive entertainment. The dining room has a large table under ornate chandelier shades. It's the perfect space for sharing a meal, arts & crafts, or an evening card game. The sourcing of furniture and electronics is approached with an environmentally conscious mindset, choosing only antique or up-cycled furniture and eco-friendly, energy-efficient appliances. The house features a solar PV system to help offset our carbon footprint across the year. Kitchen. The mill's ground floor kitchen features an electric Leisure range cooker, Aarke soda stream, large capacity fridge-freezer, microwave, dishwasher, kettle and toaster. Additional seating aside the mill makes this room just as cosy as any other in the house. Bathrooms. The master bedroom features a modern en suite with standalone bath and separate bidet, basin, and toilet. Also on the top floor is a family bathroom with standing shower, toilet and basin, all styled with a timeless and traditional finish. There is a third toilet and basin situated on the ground floor. The Garden. The garden features something for everyone. Play a spot of croquet on the expansive lawn or soak in rustic luxury in our wood-fired hot tub, with its onboard low-carbon log burner for true relaxation!
