I went there with my childhood friend. We arrived after 10.00 am and left after 5.00pm. we spent the whole time eating and drinking in the restaurant. The staff were great, very patient with us and we had a great time eating, drinking and chatting on the banks of the River Test.
This is a legend. Quite manufacturing amazingneas of the UK. Lovely place to visit. Interesting, wonderful and peaceful. Cafe also stunning, just look at this sausage roll 😋
Very interesting and informative. So many silks to see in all parts of the process. A young lady explained all about the thickness and gineness of silk cloth. We saw ladies learning with cotton threads on a small loom, the whater wheel and big weaving machines in operation. The mill race was beautifully clear with ducks and large trout. Totally fascinating and would certainly return if we lived closer.
Such a lovely place to have a really nice fresh sausage role with a salad the mustard sauce was absolutely amazing and a lovely coffee. Great walk along the river to the church the bird song along that walk is just awesome.
As a tailor I had a vested interest in visiting the Mill, but it was better than I hoped. Unlike most museums with static displays this is a working Mill so you can actually experience the process. Take the tour to get the most out of it and then relax beside the river and duck pond with a coffee. Highly recommended.
