Our History

Steeped in history and surrounded by stunning riverside views, The Priest House Hotel offers a unique blend of heritage, charm, and modern comfort. Nestled on the banks of the River Trent, our hotel’s Norman Mill Tower and historic water wheels are all that remain of a once-thriving mill complex, first recorded in the Domesday Book and valued at “Ten Shillings and a Penny.”
