Multi-award winning Georgian Farmhouse, village location, short walk to beach | House in Brighstone
6 Bedroom House in Newport, Brighstone
The Mill House is a beautiful detached Georgian farmhouse situated in a quiet country lane. It has spectacular views across fields to the Downs and is a ten-minute walk from the sea at Brighstone Bay. Across the lane is a pleasant five-minute walk passing the mill pond, stream and mythical Dragon Tree, which leads to the picturesque village of Brighstone with its well-stocked village shop, family friendly pub, gift shop, library, museum, tea shop, cafe and children’s play park.
Set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, it is a marvellous nature watching and mountain biking/horseriding/walking/cycling area. Footpaths and mountain bike trails can be followed from The Mill House to join coastal and inland paths leading to nearby Brighstone Bay, Brighstone Forest and dramatic downland trails including the Tennyson Trail and the Chalk Ridge Extreme. As a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, with light pollution kept to a minimum, stargazing from the garden or nearby Brightstone beach is a great night-time activity for the whole family.
The Mill House is also less than a mile from the world-renowed dinosaur hotspot - an 11 mile stretch of coastline that runs between Compton and Sandown which regularly yields a large collection of dinosaur bones and fossils. The sandy bays of Compton, Totland and Colwell are a short drive away as are the small towns of Freshwater and Yarmouth offering a good choice of restaurants, cafes, pubs and shops.
The Mill House has been renovated to a very high standard with many original features retained and has been annually awarded the VisitEngland Five Star and Gold awards since 2009, The Beautiful South Bronze Award for Self Catering Property of Year 2019-2020 and the VisitEngland ROSE Award 2022 recognising Service Excellence. The Mill House is a comfortable, well equipped, spacious home from home for families/friends holidaying or celebrating a special occasion together. The house is centrally heated and has a combination of fitted carpets, rugs, stone and wooden floors and almost all the rooms have open rural views.
The property benefits from a beautiful handmade kitchen with an electric AGA, Miele Electric Fan Oven and Induction Hob, Microwave, Dishwasher and two tall Fridge/Freezers. The Mill House accommodates up to 12 guests in three large bedrooms with king sized beds (one with four poster bed and one with a wooden cot), one double bedroom and two twin rooms (one with full sized bunk beds and one ground floor bedroom with two single beds). There are three bathrooms - one family bathroom with corner bath and shower cubicle, one bathroom with roll top bath and one downstairs bathroom with shower cubicle.

The dining room with views over the garden is furnished with solid oak furniture seating 12 people and also has a wood burning stove.
