Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold

Woodwick Mill dates back to the 1800s and has been converted to an exceptionally high standard of self-catering holiday accommodation in a beautiful burnside setting. The current owners purchased the derelict Mill in 2005 and spent 5 years renovating the property along with the Dam which was repaired to supply renewable hydro energy to the site. The current Feed in Tariff is included in the sale which expires in 2035. There is approval to connect a hydro-electric generator with a 11kW capacity to the grid.

In 2011, the Orkney Heritage Society awarded the Laura Grimmond highly commended award to Woodwick Mill with the property also receiving a gold Green Tourism award.

The property is located in an idyllic rural location in the West Mainland of Orkney approximately 14 miles from Kirkwall and 15 miles from Stromness. The nearest village of Evie has a primary school and well stocked convenience store with post office. Also nearby is the Broch of Gurness which is a popular tourist attraction. There are superb views over the surrounding countryside and neighbouring islands of Rousay, Wyre & Gairsay.

The Mill and Cottage are currently operating as a self-catering holiday business, with a 4 star Scottish Tourist Board rating, which are to be sold as a going concern. The self-contained units are well equipped and finished to an excellent standard.

The Mill is insulated to a high standard & heated by a hydro-electric turbine and heat pump, with solar panels providing hot water. Each self-contained unit within the Mill has a spa bath, fridge, freezer, cooker, microwave & fibre broadband.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
