We decided to pop in as the last part of our "Tour North Wales With American Mother" trip. Totally a great stop if you're interested in really nice textile and knitted products. The fact that it is a fully functional, water powered mill, where raw wool works it's way to amazing woven products is fascinating. The people working there were super friendly. We didn't have any snacks as it was late in the day, but we did go up and watch a mill in operation. That was amazing. You can feel the power of the machine in the floor and see the intricate mechanical parts working together to create beautiful textiles. Proper true craftsman working these machines. I got a great sweater for a great price. Remember people, though products for sale may seem expensive, things with the Trefriw label are very unique and handmade. I'd say totally worth it. Would definitely pop in again.
The answer to the question of where to go to find traditional woven goods in Wales. The site, itself, is beautiful, offering tours through the workshops. The workshops features everything from modern to wonderfully preserved and maintained classic looms and tools of the trade. I found it interesting. My mum, who is a weaver, herself, was absolutely absorbed by the processes. The shop offers up many products, which are made on site, as well as items made from local textiles, crafters, and artisans. You can also buy the usual sort of tourist-tat here but, really, it's the traditional craft that deserves the attention.
Amazing Welsh blankets!!! Wide range of top quality products on offer.The lady on the sales counter was very helpful and the customer service was exceptional!Diolch yn fawr/many thanks.
Its great to see a working mill. We were there at a time when they were using 2 looms, which was nice. Unfortunately, that meant we didn't see the spinning and other processing in action. It would be great to get a little more information on the processing and work involved. To see all areas one needs to get up/down two flights of stairs. The products in the shop were not to my taste but well crafted.
Very friendly staff and lots of localy made wool products. We were a little late, but still got a quick walk around the machinery.
I’ve just received a beautiful blanket from Trefriw as a wedding gift from my sister. The craftsmanship is amazing and the quality is second to none. Highly recommend if you’re after a piece that will last for generations. I look forward to cosying up with it this winter.
I visited Trefriw Woollen Mills a few years ago as I absolutely love Welsh blankets. It was a lovely day trip and so nice to see that these traditions still exist. Having bought Welsh blankets for every bed in my house, I recently bought one as a wedding present for my sister, to remind her of childhood holidays in Wales, and to keep as an heirloom for years to come. The staff are helpful and lovely to deal with, the blanket arrived this morning and we are all delighted with it. Thankyou!
We wanted to show our daughter the mill workings but were initially disappointed that the weaver wasnt usually there on Mondays. However he arrived and showed us all the process. You could see from the raw wool to the finished products. Also the magnificent water driven turbines. Thank you all xx The shop has a wide range of lovely things including products made at the mill. Seeing the work and process to make them makes you realise they are a bargain.
Visited this shop after a long walk around Trefnant lake. Nice large shop, high quality woollens. Unfortunately it was late afternoon and the cafe wasn't open for refreshment!
Self guided tour is free. My kids were able try making a rag rug and weaving in a loom. There are a lot of signs explaining each part of the process. Great gift shop with all sorts of items for sale.
