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.

"We came specifically for the gluten free menu and how the pub catered to allergens. The information on the website was clear and reassuring, the staff were knowledgable and the food was excellent. The most relaxing meal we have had since our son was diagnosed as Coeliac."

"Just the perfect location for a long walk followed by a well earned roast lunch. The roast did not disappoint - very good sized portions, great quality meat and seriously tasty! Staff were really friendly and attentive. Great cosy pub feel. Thank you, we will be back."
