Sixteenth Century, Family Owned
Sheene Mill began life as a working flour mill on the banks of the River Mel, and the water still runs beneath it today. We are a family owned venue, and over the years this old mill has gathered generations of celebrations under its beams. The character is all original: weathered brick, low timbers and the quiet of the river just outside. It is a place with a long memory, and a warm welcome for the next chapter of stories made here.
One at a Time
We host a single wedding or event at a time, never a production line. From the moment you arrive, the mill, the gardens and the whole team are entirely yours, with no other party sharing the grounds and no overlap in the diary. It is a calmer, more personal way to celebrate, and the reason couples tell us the day felt completely their own. Plan a wedding or an event here and the venue belongs to you alone.
What Sets Us Apart
In Caring Hands
A family owned mill where the welcome is personal and every detail is looked after with care.
One Event at a Time
We host a single wedding or event at a time, so the venue, gardens and team are entirely yours.
Award Winning Catering
Every menu is cooked in house by our own kitchen, because the food is part of the experience.
Ten Boutique Bedrooms
Ten boutique bedrooms by the river, so your closest guests can stay the night and wake to breakfast.
A Team Who Run the Day
Behind every celebration is a team of experienced event managers and wedding coordinators who plan with you from the first viewing and run the day so you do not have to. They are the reason so many of our reviews mention people like Helen by name: present, calm and a step ahead, so you can relax into the day knowing it is in safe hands.
