It is a lovely rural life museum based around a working 12th-century water-mill. It has tearoom craft shops, craft activities, old fashioned games arcade, sandpit area, adventure playground, soft play area, tractor play area, ducks and geese. Plenty of activities then haha!

Hiking

A small, varied museum of rural life. Perhaps more useful for Komooters, there is a small shop selling food and drinks, and a bicycle shop. Shepherd's cafe is right next door too.

Hiking

This is a super nice place, a bit busy these days, but it has food and drink facilities, camping, parking. It is basically the hub for activities in Parkmill. If you are walking from here there is a great cafe to buy sandwiches from with olive bread.
