I’ve had a some discussion around it over here (not my thread, another Mill owner).

Smartening The Mill House

Right. Having just placed several orders, eyed up several more devices and committed Tim-the-builder to making a number of holes in the walls and ceiling, we’re pretty much on the no-turning-back path now Hi! I’m Mike, and The Mill House is an old (1862) house in Peterborough in the UK: it has a number of interesting features including foot-plus thick millstone walls (getting WiFi through THAT was fun), but we’ve just started remodelling the living room and adding some HA features. I’lll leave this post as the intro, and tack an outstanding issues list as well as progress on subsequent posts.

Looks like I’m going to have to look at using 2 hubs. The only concern for me there is when there’s integration between the two. At the moment I’ve got minimal tech on the side of the Mill. I need to determine if I can use z-wave which seems to get through or wether I need to get the 2nd hub which I’m not keen on the idea of for a number of reasons.
