The mill pond can also be seen where trout and eels come down from the lochs on their way to the sea.
Otters pass between the lochs and the bay within a few feet of the mill.

The ground floor of the mill has the kitchen, hall and dining area. There is plenty of space for large groups. There are seats and nooks all over the mill for small numbers.
The strong floors, made to take the weight of grain, thick walls and large volume provide excellent acoustics for music.

The kitchen back towards the wheel house.
The stairs to the first floor of the mill worn by countless pairs of feet taking grain up to be dried or ground. They are strong and safe with good hand rails, but they are also steep so not really suitable for the very young or very old.
However the cottage and ground floor of the mill are ideal.
The cottage and mill can be rented together for £800 per week.
