A beautifully refurbished 11th Century Mill, turned pub, near Guildford

Welcome to The Gomshall Mill. Located in the beautiful, and historical rural village of Gomshall, near Guildford, on the A25. This building forms a huge part of Gomshall's history and has existed since the 11th century, as seen in the Domesday Book.

The Mill formed an integral part of the local industry, powered by the River Tillingbourne, and was still grinding flour as a working corn mill until 1952. Thereafter it became the village's post office, before being transformed into a beautiful, award-winning riverside pub in 2010. However, the Grade II listed site was fast falling into disrepair and was subsequently closed in 2021.

The derelict pub was purchased by New Dawn Pubs and, following a full refurbishment, re-opened its doors in December 2022 thus ensuring a secure future for its local community, and as a destination pub for walkers and explorers alike.

In December 2023, the team won the Pub of the Year award (Gold), which was voted for by Tourism South East and Visit England, an accolade for achieving the very highest of standards within the industry.

The Mill Pub; one of the best experiences of the past couple of years.
 
"The Mill is a pub full of character in a very cutesy village. Everything came together to make it a superb experience. From coming into the pub, everything just got better. Each member of staff we spoke to was friendly, helpful and professional. We (daughter, son-in-law and grand-daughter) sat at a table in the garden, which has a river running through it and a children's play-area. There was a garden-based bar and "kitchen", where we ordered exceptional burgers and drinks, all at a reasonable price. Nobody was chasing us to leave and make the table available. Maybe it was because it was warm and sunny day (end of June) that makes me biased, but it was such a good visit that I want to return for a full, restaurant dinner as soon as. Highly recommended for comfort, friendliness, quality of drinks and food, surroundings and overall ambience."

Top lunch and great service!
 
"If there is a better Sunday lunch in this area of the Surrey Hills then I’ll challenge you to a duel!

Extra gravy and you can ask for another Yorkshire pudding! Come on. It doesn’t get much better than that."

Excellent Sunday Lunch Place after a hike from Dorking
 
"Attentive service, excellent location after a hike. Food was fantastic, not your regular pub, more like a gastro pub so all the dishes were very well presented and prepared. Service was efficient even for a large table. We also were lucky with the weather so had a table outside!"
