About
Melin Tregwynt, a delightful whitewashed woollen mill in a remote wooded valley on the Pembrokeshire coast, has been weaving since the 17th century, when local farmers would bring their fleeces to be spun into yarn and woven into fine Welsh wool blankets. Owned by the same family since 1912 it now employs over 35 people. Simple in spirit, satisfying in quality and timeless in design our Welsh woollens can be found in design-led stores and hotels worldwide. Simple stylish clothing, accessories and bags, blankets, throws and cushions – all in our own unique fabrics. You can buy directly from our mill shop and order online or from our catalogue. Our millshop, and great cafe are open 7 days a week. You can also see the mill working from 10.00am – 4.00pm Mon - Friday. On the edge of the Pembrokeshire National Park, just off the Coastal Way road we offer electric car charging and free parking. There are spectacular beaches, cliffs and coastal footpaths all within easy reach of the mill.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The old mill was so interesting and located in a lovely valley close to the beach. We had delicious lunch in the cafe, where they accommodated my gluten-free diet with ease. Santa is bringing me a beautiful woolen throw for Christmas!

Great food
Free 7kW EV charger (for customers) …so buy something from the shop as well as a thank you
Wool mill (obvs) not working on Sat and Sundays…but clearly still a working mill.
Nice walk down to the nearby bay

Fabulous woollen mill in the Pembrokeshire countryside. Amazing products in the shop and lovely dog friendly cafe. Made very welcome. Had a blanket made for our motorhome which we collected a couple of days later which we are delighted with.

Had a lovely time here today.
Decent sized car park. Lovely cafe - you have the choice of sitting inside, outside in the garden or outside in little covered huts. We chose the huts as the weather was drizzly. Lovely food, served quickly.
We then went into the Mill and watched a very interesting film about the intricacies of making the fabrics. You can also look into the working mill and observe the staff and machinery working.
Finally we had a look around the shop - the products are gorgeous but as expected very expensive, nearly £200 for a throw, which is out of most people's reach but when you see the care and work that goes into the product you realise why the price is as it us. I bought some off-cuts so I can have a go at making a few things myself.
Finally, if you have walking difficulties, like me, everything is really close together and the loos are assessible and beautifully clean.

Saw this on TV, so we wanted to visit. It’s small and quaint but really worth a visit. We even took our Dog, though not into the weaving room, as it’s to noisy. Dog was welcomed in the shop and the cafe. The Mill room is very small and doesn’t take very long to walk around but it’s fascinating. And the Water wheel is beautiful

Such a lovely place to visit. The shop is wonderful purchased a few items here and the cafe is a must visit, proper portions and proper food. So good and I can’t wait to return… definitely a place to visit for that piece of Wales.

Lovely goods in this shop ranging from clothes, soft toys, jams, confectionery, diffusers, and a wonderful array of throws and cushions. Nice lunch (cawl) in the cafe although the pie proved to be disappointing. Well worth a visit to this mill even though it’s off the beaten track.

Had a lovely toasted tea cake and coffee after walking my two dogs down to Aber Bach beach. Sat outside in one of the heated units which was comfortable and clean as not allowed to dine inside understandably, with my dogs. Menu is interesting and I will call again and sample a proper meal the next time. A rare gem this place.

Is this dog friendly ?

We like to think so. We have a grassy field next to our main car park where you can walk the dog away from the other visitors (and their dogs). You can take dogs into the millshop and although you can't take the dogs into the cafe, we have sheltered areas immediately outside, where you and your dog can sit together under cover. In fine weather you can sit at any of the picnic tables outside and there are water bowls available in these areas. I don't think dogs would enjoy the noise and clamour of a working mill, but we have loads of walks available from the car park via quiet country lanes and footpaths down to the coast. We have three labradors ourselves and they spend their days here at the mill very happily.
