Our opinion
Water is the driving force here. It has carved out the valley, turned the millstone, nourished the meadows and, unwittingly, shaped the contours of a way of life that few places in England can still offer. The 18th-century mill has stood the test of time, changing its purpose without ever losing its essence. Brick, oak, beams: materials that time has ennobled. Around it, Arabella Lennox-Boyd has designed gardens that follow the River Allen rather than resisting it — meadows, woods, vegetable gardens and paths that the seasons constantly reshape. Three cottages for entertaining. A library for reflection. An estate where life slows down without ever coming to a standstill.
