Visited for a car show and found that you could have a tour of the windmill. £16 for a family of 5. Guides were very knowledgeable and it was a wonderful experience. My 8 year old loved it! Small shop selling flour, ice cream and souvenirs and a used book shelf with books for a small donation.

We popped in here just expecting to take a quick photo of a windmill and be on hour way. However you can take a tour (£5 pp absolute bargain) we ended up staying for about an hour and a half. The tour is brilliantly done and the hosts are great. There is a small shop for coffee and light snacks. We'll worth a visit. We'll dome guys we loved it. 👍

Went here today with our grandchildren. Lovely little place. Very good parking. Reasonable price £5 admission for adult £3 for children (under 5 free) guided tour of the windmill was really interesting and enjoyable. Nice little gift shop selling snacks etc. Was also a tractor festival there.

Wonderful place for a stop when cycling. Views are manificent as is the engineering of the old millwrights. Support this project and visit if you are in the area.

A delightful place, that shows the workings of a traditional windmill. Excellent guides (although ours did seem to prefer jokes to facts). Very reasonable entry fee, and cheap hot drinks. Will definitely return!

Visited as part of the heritage open days event. We were given a fantastic tour of the mill which was working. The mill usually has 6 sails but currently only has 4 as 2 are being repaired. The tour started with a history of the mill, there was also a virtual tour for people unable to climb the stairs. The mill workings are fantastic and the guide we had was extremely knowledge and friendly giving us a real insight into the history of the mill. Great views of Heage village from the mill.
