With original features, stunning architecture and riverside views, we have retained the history of the past, whilst creating a bright, friendly and warm environment to create memories that will last a lifetime!

We just wanted to say a huge thank you to yourself, Adam and all the West Mill team for helping make our day so amazing. We had the most incredible time, we're still buzzing! So many people have told us it was one of the best weddings they've ever attended. The venue is absolutely perfect and yourself and all the team were so helpful.
