"It has been a privilege to share our Listed Mill with hundreds of guests over the years who hopefully have not only benefited from a unique space to stay but also a greater appreciation of Cornwall’s heritage. There is a continued and growing interest in staying in heritage properties in the UK. If you have any questions about listing your heritage property you can connect with me here."
