A Festive Setting Unlike Any Other
The sixteenth century mill house and its riverside conservatory make for a genuinely special festive backdrop. Original beams, warm lighting and the sound of the River Mel running alongside create the kind of atmosphere you cannot manufacture. The kitchen cooks everything in house, and our team are on hand from the moment you arrive.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make dietary requests?
We will try our best to meet requests but this may not always be possible. We can advise if our dishes are suitable for certain allergies. Please email reservations@sheenemill.com and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
Is there a dress code?
We would like you to wear whatever you feel comfortable in.
Can I book on the day?
We always advise pre-booking as we order stock to satisfy bookings several days in advance. If we can accommodate your party we will of course do so, but to avoid disappointment we recommend booking in advance.
Do I need to pre-order my menu choices?
Some of our dining experiences require menu pre-orders to reduce wastage. A member of our team will be in touch prior to your date to collect this information if required.
Are bookings refundable?
Unfortunately, once you have made a purchase we cannot offer any refunds. You may however offer your booking to a friend or family member. Please notify us in advance if you wish to transfer your booking.
How do I pay and what is included?
All bookings require full pre-payment and must be made via the website rather than over the phone or in person. Any drinks or additional items ordered on the day are charged separately. You can leave any special requests in the comments box at checkout.
