The River Waveney marks the border between Norfolk and Suffolk and Mendham Mill sits astride the river, surrounded by hundreds of acres of beautiful water meadows. Four award-winning cottages which include the stunning Georgian Miller’s House have been created from houses, a granary, and other estate buildings. The owners are on hand assisting visitors who wish to fish or make use of the canoes or rowing boat in the sparkling private waters of the river. With places like Southwold, Aldeburgh and Norwich all within easy reach Mendham Mill is ideally located.
This was our third stay in North Meadow Cottage. Each time everything is exactly as you would want, lovely comfortable, spacious cottage, beautiful grounds and the warmest of welcomes.
We were joined by our sons and family’s for a weekend birthday celebration and the general feeling was that it would be a lovely place to live.
No improvements necessary everything is spot on for us.
This is our second visit here the weather has been fantastic Beautiful location very Peaceful- tranquil surroundings- accommodation & facilities 1st class. Nick & James very welcoming, friendly, helpful, excellent hosts. No wonder people keep returning back here.

Nick and James are great hosts, never too busy to chat or sort out any problems and don’t show the slightest frustration when certain guests (ie us) manage to lock themselves out of their cottage (again).
This is our second visit and intend there to be a third next year. I think that says it all about how much we’ve enjoyed both our holidays at Mendham.

The bedrooms were made up as per our booking request, clean towels and fresh linen were where you would expect them. There was fresh milk in the fridge, tea, coffee, milk and sugar and even some ki...more
