Lovely place! I loved to learn about the wool making and we had a great lunch at the café, with the smell of fresh baking wafting around. Def give it a try!
It is a lovely area to visit. A working woolmill on-site from 1749. Watch the 30-minute video to familiarise yourself with the processes. Sheep's wool through to woven products. Super friendly staff. Absolutely loved it. They do tours with running machine, if you email in advance. A volunteer comes in specially for this.
One of the most underrated experiences of the whole Speyside! Most people will see a million sheep in Scotland but miss the part how the wool is transformed into textiles. Tip #1: Book a tour or all the machines involved will not make any meaning to you. But when explained by a volunteer guide you will appreciate quality clothes. Tip #2: Buy a bear in the shop. Yes, it is expensive, but the fabric was made at the woolmill with a lot manual labour involved at Scotland rather than buying the China made bears in the tourist shops. Tip #3: Have an espresso at the Red Roof Cafe, it taste like in Italy, which is rare in most part of the UK. Highly recommend!
A stunning example of pre industrial revolution weaving - a small family mill that has survived and been restored as a working mill. The restored cottage and it's multiple layers of period wallpaper were a real snapshot of rural life. Highly recommended!
We visited today Knockando Woolmill .Enjoyed this tour very much. The shop is amazing . Thank you for your welcome .
Simply amazing! Really interesting, great tour. Lovely products made on site and sold in the shop. Café with beautiful home baked scones, cakes and traybakes.
Not too tricky to find, but the GPS in our rental car only got us close... good thing there were good signs to direct us the rest of the way! We had a lovely lunch, and I was thrilled to find so many things to buy for Christmas gifts. Would love to come again!
Great small place, chance to see working Victorian woolen mill. Much more intimate experience than New Lanark, and also free entry. Ah, and a great cafe.
Very well preserved mill buildings with excellent presentation of the history of milling in this area and how wool mills work. Interesting! Bonus: good coffeeshop we had fresh baked, flavourful scones and extremely high quality woolen items for sale.
This was a very pleasant experience and one that we were glad to make please support them as they are doing a great job with preserving our manufacturing history bravo
