Top marks for this quaint, yet important museum highlighting the way of life of so many. It's all free entry too. Has a reasonably sized cafe, small shop and good parking. Ok, I have to declare an interest I have a loom & weave, though not on this scale, but actually, the story of processing wool and the story of those involved was well set out in both Welsh and English. Sadly the machines were not being turned on to show them working and hear/feel the noise my visit was Tues early Jan 23, so I'm not overly surprised, but there are plenty of information boards and videos to help tell the story. Check opening times google etc before you set off.. they don't open every day! The cafe serves basic but good food with some gluten free options. Space for a picnic outside in more clement weather. Except for guide dogs, dogs are not permitted inside the museum. Worth a return visit? Yes ... I definitely fancy another look.
Spent a very happy couple of hours exploring this fascinating museum. Well laid out, very helpful, knowledgeable staff absolutely lovely to watch and talk to a lovely young man spinning at a spinning wheel, and with lots of information boards, photographs and more. Really brought the history of woollen mills in Wales alive.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
As I arrived there were gardens by the car park with plants good for dying wool. There was lots to see the museum with working machinery for preparing, spinning and weaving the wool. A nice selection of garments and other items made in the mill. Lots on the history and culture of the mill and Welsh garment making. Well worth a visit.
The museum was very interesting with lots of machinery and local history. We enjoyed seeing everything and had tea, coffee and wonderful cakes in the cafe afterwards. The museum shop had many colourful things to buy. The toilets were exceptionally clean and well looked after. Dogs are allowed in the grounds but not indoors. It is free to visit but you need to book your tickets online before you go.
Really great visit there. My first time but everything was so well explained, the displays understated but exact and with a wealth of history. Awesome to find out details of the local Women's Football team back in 1956. We are already planning our next visit.
No charge to enter but donations requested, £5 suggested and given. Tasty light lunch options soup and panini enjoyed. Maps in multiple languages available took the English one. On the upstairs floor, spoke with two women volunteers who had recently joined the museum and were 'in at the deep end' on a spinning demonstration. They explained the hand-process well and then compared with the 400-at-once spinning mule machinery. Back to the cafe for tea and cake before leaving for home.
What a good free experience. So much to see & learn about, a couple of activities and all the staff working were really friendly and knowledgeable, more than happy to answer any questions we had. Wasn't expecting much when we decided to go but learnt a lot about Welsh history!Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Lovely little museum with friendly staff and impressive story and exhibits. Its an hour or two to take it in, you'll need satnav to find the place as its down teeny tiny roads. The young woman weaving was particularly engaging and informative. Finish the visit with a coffe and panini in the cafe. .
Loved visiting the wool museum, very interesting learning about how the wool is treated and spun. Well worth a visit and no entrance fee, just donate what you want to keep the museum goingVisited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Very interesting and educational visit to this wonderful home of the wool industry The scale and complexity of the machinery is extremely impressive, not to mention the noise when running! Very friendly and knowledgeable staff, who easily demonstrate their enthusiasm and pride for the Museum.
