Exactly what we needed
Butterworth Mill was the most perfect place for our getaway. After the recent lose of our mum we needed some together time. The mill is sensational in its setup. The decor is warm, old worldy but fun and comfortable. The bath is divine! There is everything you could possibly need in terms of kitchen items, the beds are fabulously comfortable with crisp clean white linen, the fire was perfect as it was very cold and wet the whole 3 days we were there. We loved it. We loved the total feel of comfort. Carolyn was the perfect host. Thank you so much.

Burra Gem
What a great property that is very well equipped to handle groups of 12. It has a real charm about it that made our weekend. You can venture out and explore or stay in and relax. It has a nice fire, pool table, dart board and plenty of beds. It also has a great deck including bar area, bbq and fire pit. We dined in by candlelight and had a great evening. This property is brilliant and a real gem of Burra, thoroughly recommend.

The mill.
The mezzanine arrangement means smallest sound heard throughout, and one bathroom for all in main section right next to the beds was a little awkward. We enjoyed the deck.

Historic quirky old mill full of character. Excellent for a family holiday
We had a fabulous family holiday exploring Burra and the region over to Clare & Mintaro from our base here. This is not your standard holiday house. It's as described, with plenty of character, a big kitchen & large living area to enjoy & a fireplace that keeps the Mill warm. The beds were all very comfortable. It's an open plan set up with mezzanine floors dividing up the Mill into floors for sleeping spaces. The engine room provides sleeping for 5 or more. It was harder to keep warm , as its a bit draughty. It was July, so the coldest part of the year. We used that space for the young adults & they were OK there. There is a lovely deck on one side that caught the Winter sun beautifully. Carolyn, the host is easy to communicate with and very friendly & helpful. I would highly recommend the Mill for a different style of accommodation
