Not a chain but a group of around 40 members with unsual buildings converted to hotels, b&bs and self-catering properties. For a copy of the groups' booklet send £3 payable to P Roberts + 50p SAE, to the above address.

Where

Across the UK. The group can also provide information on Moulin Etape, a French sister group specialising in wind and watermills converted into hotels and restaurants.

Style

Properties range from lighthouses to wind and water mills and also include oasthouses, warehouses, schools, rectories and a folly. The main criterion for inclusion is that character is more important than tourist board requisites. Further options are also listed but in less detail bringing the total listings to around 150, though only the full entries have been inspected.

Child Facilities

A booklet details where children are accepted unconditionally (at about one third so could provide for example a cot or children's food).

Sample Price

Room rates range from around £30 to £100-plus.

Child Prices

Varying depending on the property.
