About FSC Flatford Mill

Stay in our historically rich buildings either Willy Lotts’ House, famous by John Constable’s ‘Haywain’ painting or Valley Farm, a medieval great hall built in the 1450’s, and of course the Mill itself that was owned and renovated by the Constable family in the 1700’s.
Guests can choose from high-standard single, twin and family rooms, some of which are en-suite. Guests who stay with us can enjoy an à la carte breakfast.
