The Mill House Hotel & Restaurant

The Mill House Hotel is conveniently situated in the ancient village of Swallowfield, near Reading, and offers superb hospitality. The Georgian building dates back to 1823 and is run under the personal direction of, Mark & Kim Pybus. After careful restoration to its former Georgian glory, keeping the original design of high cielings and large spacious rooms individually decorated with en-suite bathroom/ shower and all the expected facilities, the Mill House lent itself naturally to become a renowned and fashionable restaurant and hotel whose charm and character is much in evidence

      We are so grateful for making our wedding day run so well
      A quick line to Jessica to convey to you and the team at The Mill House for making our wedding day run so well. Both Catherine and I felt so relaxed during the day and since we returned from our honeymoon we have received many compliments on your behalf from family and friends who were present. Our lone ''gluten'' intolerent guest said it was the best food he had ever had! We would also like to thank David & Chris on the day for helping it all run so smoothly. They could not do enough for us for the day, the evening reception and even breakfast the next morning.

      THANK YOU
      Obviously the weather was on our side that day, but we would like to say how delighted and very pleased we were with the whole event, everything went smoothly and from speaking to family and friends, not only did they say it was a smashing wedding but some said it was the best they had been to! The food was highly thought of, particularly the chicken and the dessert, and the men especially appreciated the hog roast in the evening. We must say a particular thanks to David who was in charge and his professionalism throughout. He kept the whole event working smoothly. We know that this doesn''t happen by accident but a lot of hard work and thought is put in beforehand and behind the scenes. Also, thanks to his hard working and courteous staff.
