Owner chronicles: A place to re-root

Owner chronicles: A place to re-root

There's something unmistakably romantic about waking up in an old Cornish watermill, where everything feels frozen in time, yet the breath of new life drifts in like morning breeze through open windows. This duality lingers throughout Riverstone Mill: in the kitchen, where timeworn flagstones find harmony with deVOL counters, and in the once-forgotten garden, whose soil now offers its own seasonal harvest.

In restoring this old mill, it's clear something in its owner has been restored too. Crafting a sanctuary in which to slow down; to live and breath the values held dear; to re-root. Now shared with others in search of the same.

"What is most striking is the quiet. The only thing you can hear at Riverstone is the birdsong, the occasional pitter patter of rain on the old slate roof, and the trickle of water as it runs past the house. It’s a little, tranquil lost world.”
