Historic Water Mill, Guest House & Self Catering.
Burcott Mill nestles between the Somerset Levels and the Mendip Hills.
It is one mile from Wells (England's smallest city) and Wookey Hole Caves, and within easy reach of Bath (European Heritage City), Cheddar (Caves & Gorge), Glastonbury (Festival & Tor), Street (Clark's Village), Weston-super-Mare (Victorian seaside resort), Taunton (Somerset's county town) and Bristol (Maritime centre).

Burcott Mill is a working water-powered flour mill, reconstructed by Devon craftsmen in 1864.
There has been a mill on this site for over 1,000 years and few such watermills still operate commercially today.
We now specialise in the production of 100% wholemeal flour made from organic English wheat grain.

Our local baker makes the bread, made from our own flour, which is served with your breakfast in the Miller's House. After breakfast, you are invited to enjoy a private tour of the Mill with the miller (your breakfast waiter!). Between Easter and October you may also visit our country tea room. For children, we have a large adventure play area built to required safety standards, and a number of small friendly animals and wildfowl.
The Miller's House is a charming Grade II listed building adjoining the Mill. There are six guest rooms, each offering comfortable and private facilities. Your hosts are Lesley & Ian Burt.
We look forward to welcoming you to our family home.
