Lewell Mill on the Frome Very little recognisable seems to remain of the old mill. No sign of a waterwheel although some of the leats and mill-race are still visible.

8.2/10 Very Good! (1,000 reviews)
Room very clean, staff nice and friendly hotel itself also clean and fresh. Swimming pool and spa dated and not as clean (due to age rather lack of effort). Food and drink slightly over priced £17+ for a pint of lager and glass of wine.
