007 Mill

007 Mill, nestled on its very own ‘island’ in the shimmering Norfolk Broads, is the ideal escape for would-be secret agents in need of a well-deserved break!  

Better still, you get to bring the family and the dogs along to enjoy the fun, too.  

The 300-year-old windmill has not only been exquisitely converted for style and comfort, it was once owned by the late actor Sir Roger Moore – James Bond himself.

As such, there’s a glamorously quirky ‘film set’ feel running through the tasteful interiors, along with more than a few Bond-themed accessories to leave you feeling shaken and stirred!

Sleeping a maximum of (00)7 guests, you’ll enter the enchanting mill into the circular industrial-style kitchen… which we’re sure you’ll agree is a joy to cook in, with its gleaming electric oven and hob, and plenty of space to whip up movie-style banquets.

Take them up to the enchanting film-themed lounge and diner, complete with squishy sofas – one of which transforms into a double sofa bed when needed – a feature wood-burner, and a huge Smart TV and entertainment system. Oh, and there’s also a telescope for stargazers (or undercover spies who need to keep an eye out for evil adversaries!)

If you’re in the mood for al fresco dining by sunset, simply grab your Martinis and head through the double patio doors to the sumptuous, south facing decking area… where the views are sure to captivate you all evening long.

More information

There are three elegant bedrooms to choose from, and you’ll find the first double room just above the lounge, on a scenic mezzanine level. Head up the staircase, adorned with fascinating stories of the mill’s history, to reach the next bedroom… which boasts a luxurious round double bed and a Smart TV.

The delights keep on coming as you ascend further, with a quirky open-plan single sleeping space with a TV on the second floor, and a glorious Bond-themed office and dressing room area on the third!

You’ll be rewarded with truly mesmerising scenery as you reach the fourth and final floor, with its gorgeous balcony and viewing gallery that showcases the glistening Norfolk Broads and surrounding countryside to spectacular effect.

Outside awaits even more luxury, if you can bear it! There’s a private landscaped garden peppered with seating areas, all magically positioned for you to catch the sun as you curl up with a good book, while a charcoal barbecue and pizza oven help you change your holiday menu as often as your outfits.

Oh, and with private mooring available, it’d just be rude not to hire a boat and explore those amazing waterways at your own leisure, before mixing another round of Martinis to help you greet that blazing sunset.

(You only live twice, after all!)

Things to note

There is a small extra fee per dog. Please note that the mill is not suitable for small children, due to steep open tread stairs throughout.
