In 1859 Thomas Williams bought the mill which is still owned and
run by his descendants and manufactures traditional fabrics in contemporary
colours for soft furnishing, garments and accessories.
The mill generates its own electricity and carries out all the processes
from fleece to fibre on 40 - 50 year old machinery.
Weaving and the hydro-electric can be viewed all year (see hours).
The working mill museum is open Easter - end October (see hours).
Please note that the machines run according to productions needs.
Handspinning and the plant sources of natural dyes can be viewed
plus an opportunity to "try weaving yourself" (see opening
hours).
Our Welsh bedspreads, throws and tweeds are exclusive ot our shop
and website. We also stock beautiful textiles in natural fibres
and pure wool knitwear and sheepskin products.
Wool is the original sustainable fibre with many amazing qualities.
Out of fashion for many years, people are beginning to again appreciate
its true value.
Hot and cold drinks, cakes and scones are served in the tearoom.
Situated on the edge of the Snowdonia National Park, Trefriw is
surrounded by beautiful scenery. The lovely lakes Crafnant and Geirionydd
which supply the water for our hydro-electric system are in the
foothills above the village and can be visited on foot or by car.
A number of waymarked walks (www.trefriwtrails.org.uk)
start in the car park opposite the mill.
