An interesting old 17th century watermill and Museum of Rural Bygones. There is a cafe on site, called the Tea Chest, as well as local crafts and a lake to wander around. The 'museum' is PS2.50 payable via an honesty box.

Eccentrcity gone mad Every implement under the sun Is housed.. Methodically arranged on three floors of the Ancient flour mill. A joy And just a small donation And nimble feet Allows you too Explore British history.

Great little hidden gem! We started our visit in the cosy little cafe, lots of choice and very nice food. A light rain shower then directed us into the very interesting museum, lots to see! including the wheel from the inside (apart from seeing the wheel, awkward steps are involved) then we emerged to the sun making an appearance onto the lovely lake, lots of benches, ducks and a little walk down to the sluice gates which is a very pretty little spot. Before we left we visited the gift/craft shop which was full of very reasonably priced items and plants for sale too. A very enjoyable morning of exploring and will definately be returning There was also an Art gallery but not sure on the opening days as closed on the Saturday we visited.

Wasn't open... Several others including a group of cyclist came up the pot holed drive . So money was lost. But understandably,the owners are not out too make cast amounts of money. MC Donald's would have redeveloped it,if they thought there was easy money too be made.. And that's why it's sits in a sleepy hollow. Well away from garish... West bay . Thankgod,it's tranquil unspoilt.. And I don't know why I'm telling you. Because the last thing I want too see is endless huge motorhomes With owners who haven't a scooby doo how too drive them.. Clogging up this idyllic piece of what England did look like before the motorways... But I still took a look around the mill pond and went up again too the sluice.. Muddy belut determined to get a picture. You could hear it before you saw it .. In full flood. And the snow drops were out. Use too come with my father,because Paul the owner worked with him. At the top secret weapons establishment on Portland which everybody knew was there . Because it stuck out like a sore thumb. But Paul gave it all up and has spent the rest of his life restoring the mill. And my father was left in the drawing office dreaming off the day he could get back too his allotment and his flowers...

Very quirky location with a lovely mill which can be visited. It's full of a haphazard collection of machines and equipment, which just adds to its charm. There is also an excellent cafe, unusual free range hens, a river walk, a beautiful lake which can be walked around and a gift shop.

Lovely walk along the river and around the millpond. Plenty of seating and well kept area. Art and craft barns on site. Also a lovely tearooms, with delicious home cooked meals and light bites at reasonable prices .
