Cheshire's Historic Working Water Mill
Try some of our delicious cakes!
No trip out to the Cheshire countryside is complete without a cuppa and a beautiful slice of cake.
Choose from a variety of cakes including Chocolate Fudge Cake, Victoria Sponge, Coffee & Walnut, Vegan Flapjack, Bara Brith and Lemon Drizzle Cake. (Choice varies each week)
Bunbury Water Mill is the perfect setting for relaxing with a picnic, especially in the picnic area outside to enjoy the sylvan backdrop of the mill and millpond.
You might have ducks as 'guests' to share your picnic, but please remember that picnic food is not good for their well-being. We have small packs of grain available for sale in the Centre - it's much better for them.
Whether you've just finished your tour of the mill, or are waiting to go around, there is always time for a quiet cuppa and a piece of cake by the pond or on the lawn at the side of the centre.
A snack before you head home will give you time to reflect on your visit to the mill, and take in the centuries of history which have been presented to you by our knowledgeable volunteer guides. There are many leaflets, books and gifts available in the Centre's gift shop, for young and old alike, as a memento of your visit.
The Visitor Centre and Mill stand in two acres of wildlife-rich Cheshire country-side. Play the video to see the mill in a bird's-eye view over the rolling plains of Cheshire.
Depending on the time of year you may see butterflies, kingfishers, herons, damsel flies and dragonflies, frogs and ducks. You can feed our resident ducks and even watch our busy bees buzzing around their hive and making us some honey.
