The Mill was recommended to us by a friend long ago and foolishly I forgot about it. I have no idea why I chose The Mill this time but certainly glad I did. On arrival we opted for pre-dinner drinks in the bar, relaxing next to an open log fire to peruse the menus with the added bonus of complimentary... More

There was a good choice of dishes in the set menu. Three of us had lamb which was beautifully cooked. We loved the chocolate and sorbet desert. A surprise celebration candle... More

I absolutely love this restaurant. I live in Lymington and have come here many times, for dinners, lunches, and even for my birthday. The food may be slightly expensive but the set menu is wonderful, and you just know that you can look forward to quality. The staff are lovely also. I would certainly recommend this - and make sure... More

This beautiful restaurant, with a pretty stream and ducks, is all one needs for a reasonably priced, chef inspired meal using mostly locally sourced New Forest produce. The bar has comfortable seating and a log fire; the large dining room is tastefully decorated in a pretty country style, with bow windows. The staff are very pleasant and helpful. There is... More

Good service, good decor / dining area, excellent menu choice & food with nice wines, all at reasonable prices. Look forward to returning in summer to enjoy the outdoors there.

We ate here on a Sunday evening; the place is so delightful, candlelight, art and great food. Great service and a good wine list. Would highly recommend it.

Over the years Liz Cottingham and her staff have produced excellent meals for both lunch and dinner. With 8 pretty guest rooms in the Mill a perfect setting for a special date and breakfast is not bad too!

Someone should merge the two reviews as this is the same place as The Mill at Gordleton. A lovely place to have a pint if passing, fabulous gardens and a wonderful style of decor. Just a shame it is so expensive for regular dining. Bar menu nice, Sunday roast superb.

A Superb setting in beautiful grounds with a great atmosphere in the restaurant. The service was very good with a good choice of menu and the food was excellent. It is expensive but it was very busy on a Wednesday night, which showed that people still felt it good value and worth paying the extra for something special.

This is my favourite restaurant in the area. The food is delicious and the setting is gorgeous - beautiful gardens in the summer whilst the restaurant feels really cosy in winter. Liz is always an amazing host and along with her team can not do enough for you. Highly recommended.
