The Old Mill Knitsley  

Set in the countryside just outside Consett (Knitsley), this 16th‑century converted mill sits among woodland and by a riverside beer garden. It’s about 2 miles from Consett town centre and a short drive to Empire Theatre, Hall Hill Farm, Chapman's Well Local Nature Reserve, with Beamish Open Air Museum and Durham University within easy reach.

Six individually decorated guestrooms retain original features like fireplaces and offer desks, TVs, coffee/tea makers and en‑suite showers. Expect garden and river views, a cosy pub vibe in a historic building, and wedding services on site for a memorable stay.

Riverside beer garden, restaurant and bar/lounge with alfresco dining options. Complimentary full breakfast is included. Outdoor picnic and BBQ areas, karaoke, tour/ticket assistance and wedding support round out the offerings—perfect for relaxed country breaks and small celebrations.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi across the property and free on‑site self parking make short work of practical needs.

On‑site restaurant serves meals with garden or riverside views and the bar/lounge pours drinks into the evening. Alfresco dining is available when the weather allows, and a complimentary full breakfast gets your day started right.
