Meet Jim…

There is so much wildlife around the Mill, from peacocks to Jim, the slow worm. He’s great to have around as he eats pest like slugs and worms and he’s quite harmless.

I’ll never get tired of Mill life…💞

We love a bit of Town Mills history!

Here is a couple of photo’s from yesterdays Rolle Ramble.

To mark the 200th anniversary of the start of the work on the Rolle canal, the Rolle Canal Society held a ‘Rolle Ramble’, undertaking a special one-off walk along the entirety of the Rolle canal, including parts of the original canal not usually open to the public- including the now concealed parts at our very own Town Mills!

The canal was important in maritime trade and once enabled goods such as limestone to be transported from Bideford to Torrington. Although the canal is no longer present it’s route still offers some breath taking walking routes!

A big thanks to Mike at Rolle Canal Society for imparting some historic knowledge about the workings of Town Mills!

Living in the most beautiful part of North Devon, finds me embracing the wonderful nature that surrounds us & err towards natural products. I purchased an armpit detoxing product from Bee Organics which draws out impurities from your armpits caused by using regular deodorants. The product is charcoal based…I shared my experience of this product with my daughter Natasha & urged her to try it. I did warn her that you may get some black residue left under your ‘pits’….she forgot that advise & proceeded. Not only did she apply said product to her armpits, she applied it to her face & arms! You can see the horror in her face when I reminded her that there may be staining after use!! Oh my, I laughed so much. Fortunately for her, there was no staining! Honestly…,I was disappointed 🫣 🤣 sorry Natasha 🤭

If you love to see or hear the sound of nature, Town Mills is the place to be. This time of year there are Swallows who migrate here each year from as far as South Africa. They nest at the Mill, then their fledglings learn the art of flying & finally leave to take their long journey as generations before them have done. We have bats too who come to the Mill each year. We also have Peacocks who frequent the Mill daily. This is just a taste. There is much, much more wildlife to experience & enjoy here at Town Mills…come see for yourself. We can accommodate party’s from 3 to 12 people 🏰

Here at Town Mills we believe in keeping our staff happy. Jon Babb has waited a long time for a leaf blower. Today it arrived, & he could not be happier! You may well think to yourself that this is not something to get excited about. Not the case for our Jon, who upon delivery, was quick to unpack the new toy. Life is Good.

This week we mark our first year of taking over the mill- and what a year it has been. I’ve been thinking about what we’ve undertaken in that year and it really is incredible the amount we’ve managed to achieve:

⭐️ Removed the old dishevelled tennis court to start to create more parking
⭐️Replaced all of the bedding and linen and set up laundry to be outsourced
⭐️Replaced all cutlery, crockery and kitchen appliances
⭐️Installed coffee machines in cottages for all of our coffee lovers
⭐️ Updated the heating system
⭐️Installed super fast broadband to improve Wi-Fi for guests
⭐️Began the huge job of rewiring the electrics through our 18th century building
⭐️Given the swimming pool and changing rooms a face lift
⭐️Replaced three outside doors
⭐️Repainted all outside fences and children’s play area
⭐️Given the games room a facelift and installed a dart board
⭐️Refurbished the kids hideaway
⭐️ Outside lights installed
⭐️Pool roof windows removed and tiled over
⭐️New drainage system installed
⭐️Decommissioned old septic tanks and replaced with new
⭐️Maintenance work carried out on the roof
⭐️ New path to the rear of the mill installed
⭐️ Grounds cleared of overgrown foliage
⭐️ Facelift carried out on our garage
⭐️ Refurbishment of our up and coming tea room has commenced
⭐️ The full refurbishment of our first cottage is underway

We couldn’t have achieved all of the above in just a year without our hard working team and suppliers. We are so grateful to all of our guests this last year that have seen how hard we have worked to improve the mill and understood the minor inconveniences from it at times.

We really have so much more planned and can’t wait to continue with the renovating and to welcome more guests to enjoy its progress 🥰

Good morning and a happy Sunday to you all! ☀️

Thankfully, even after having some rain in the early hours, the water levels have gone down and we can now see the park again 🙏🏻

Now the water has gone down you can see just how high the water reached!

Thank you for the comments and messages checking in on us 🥰

We like to document our times at the mill- warts and all and we are currently in deep…The relentless rainy January really is proving troublesome and the river has well and truly burst it’s banks.

If you scroll back to our summer photos when you could see the river bank, you’ll be able to compare just how deep it is now 😢☔️🌨
