A Gingerbread Christmas
Step into this beautiful historic mill, brimming with the delights of Christmas. You'll find richly decorated trees with gingham bows, copper baubles and strings of gingerbread characters reflecting the heritage of flour production here. Green garlands, shiny baubles and stack of presents will bring all the festive feelings. See if you can spot some familiar friends between the branches!

Our spiced cake with toffee sauce can't be missed! A warming drink is also a must - savour one of our luxurious hot chocolates - topped with marshmallows and cream.
