Juniper Mill
Enter through the stable door and into a double height open plan living area where lofty ceilings and beams give the space immediate charm and character. The overall vibe is enduringly stylish with a seriously impressive list of design names mixed with salvaged finds and industrial accents.
Painted throughout in Farrow & Ball, the kitchen has the rich warmth of Brinjal with customised leather handles by Dowsing & Reynolds adding a decidedly artisan edge. There’s a Nespresso machine for those in need of their morning coffee fix, and the smart oiled oak dining table seats six for those looking to spread out.....or for a little dinner entertaining perhaps.
Into the sitting room and a vintage Moroccan rug is a key design influence, while features such as the antique chapati rolling pins and original French balloon mould are sure to be an interesting talking point! Cushions by Rockett St George, lamps by Graham & Green and hand-made working shutters all add to its simple allure.
From the sitting room, a door leads out to the garden where the occasional otter can be seen in the mill lade which gently trickles through the garden. Sitting in 5 acres of grounds, it’s a lovely spot for a morning wander up the Boondreigh Burn listening to the waking sounds of wildlife.
For sleep, head upstairs to the mezzanine bedroom where vintage sack cushions and an Urbanara throw add texture and colour in an otherwise restful scheme. The monkey side lamps add a playful touch and a little dash of quirkiness too!
There’s a separate shower room which has been cleverly designed within the eaves with finishes by Tikamoon, or why not roll out of bed and into the roll-top bath for a sumptuous soak or a spot of evening star gazing.
