The museum itself is good but they could do with a better gift shop
Response from the owner 13:14 20 Sep 25
Thanks for reviewing the museum 😃 We're exploring ways of boosting our gift shop offering, and in the meantime our volunteers are working on building an online shop.

Cute little place, tea room was great only thing missing was a gift shop. Unless we missed it.

Hi Bekki, thanks for reviewing the museum, and glad you enjoyed your visit! On your next visit, look out for the large dresser at the end of the coffee room, where we have a few souvenirs for sale. We expect to have more there soon, and we are also developing an online shop on our new website, so extra retail opportunities are on their way 🙂

Great place to visit especially if you like social history.
I have to say though that just the cafe itself is well worth a visit.
The cakes are excellent and tasty.
Bought some scones to take home which were excellent value.
Will definitely go back to the cafe again when we visit the area , something to really look forward to.

This was a lovely place to visit. With countless items of uniforms, costumes, equipment from farming , homes etc. lots of historical stuff loved the all the christening robes and the traditional style of lace work patterns on them. Well worth a visit for young children , teenagers & families. The mill itself is worth the visit

The staff are absolutely lovely. We had lunch first at the cafe which was delicious followed by a trip around the museum. The exhibit on the ground floor was of East Asian attire. Cannot recommend it enough.

Glad you enjoyed your visit! Come back soon and see our new exhibits: Military Uniforms/Forties Fashion in the ground floor gallery, and Ayrshire Whitework on the first floor.

This is an absolute gem of a museum and will appeal to lovers of social history, the rural life of bygone Scotland and of beautiful embroidery of which there are stunning examples of Chinese and Japanese work and of the iconic Ayrshire Work. The team running the museum are really informative and friendly and there is a very good reasonably priced cafe to relax in afterwards.

Thanks for your lovely review! Hope you have a chance to see our new exhibition of Military Uniforms/Forties Fashion in the ground floor gallery.
