These superb historic cottages have been meticulously converted from outbuildings of the Grade II* listed Torr Vale Mill, which was once England’s longest continuous working mill between 1785 and 2000. Sitting in a deep valley on the banks of the River Goyt, the cottages are wonderfully individual and retain many fabulous clues as to their heritage.

To access The Old Workshop, from the mill yard you step through a door and then climb wooden stairs up to the first floor. You emerge into a stunning open plan space that merges contemporary furnishings with the original stone walls of an 18th century mill workshop. Looking up quite superbly the old drivebelt wheels runs through the open roof beams, and you are instantly reminded of the incredible heritage of this unique building. On the same floor you’ll find three spacious bedrooms, one of which opens out onto a small, gravelled terrace with views down to the river. Outside a short walk past the mighty chimney stack and you’ll reach the award-winning Millennium Walkway. This 160m long cantilevered walkway provides a route through the previously impassable gritstone gorge at Torrs, New Mills which is an area of exceptional natural beauty and unique industrial archaeological heritage.
