A bit of a family tradition at Easter time. Duck races are great fun despite how competitive the dads get. It's a nice day if the weather is fine. There is also a short walk in the country that is well worth the effort.

Only 10 minutes from home. Excellent guide and interesting to learn about local history. Well laid out site.

I visited this mill last summer. Although I wasn't initially particularly enthusiastic about this visit, I found it to be extremely interested and enjoyed my afternoon there. This was mainly due to the staff, in particular the nice, enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide, who showed us around the mill. It was evident that he had a great knowledge of the mill, and enjoyed showing it to visitors. I highly recommend it.

Well worth a visit, I had been previously but took my husband as I knew he would be interested - he LOVED it! The National Trust for Scotland have done a wonderful job in saving this mill. Special mention has to go to the manager Peter Ellis who is so passionate about the mill and also very interesting. We had a great afternoon and would recommend a visit.

Worthwhile going to see. You just sometimes don't know what is on I your own doorstep. Miller was very knowledgable. Great interaction with all there.

We walked from the Carnoustie Golf Hotel to Barry Mill where we were greeted by the miller. We gladly accepted his offer of a personal tour complete with commentary round the mill - he was very knowledgeable and we really enjoyed his enthusiasm for the mill. Beautiful location. Well worth a visit.

We arrived before the opening time of the mill on a Sunday but access was open and we had a lovely walk along through the grounds and along the mill lade. On our return the reception area was open and we had a chat with the very friendly staff. We were dissapointed that there was no milling demonstration planned that day and while they waited for more people to arrive before holding a tour of the mill we went to look at the information display in the mill. Within 5 or 10 minutes Peter arrived and said he would do the tour with just the two of us. Peter has enjoyed a long career in milling and listening his expert and knowledgable explanation of all aspects of the mill, technical, historical and social was a pleasure. We learnt far more than if we had just walked round ourselves. Next time we are in the area we will definitely be visiting again.

It was really interesting seeing round this old mill. The chap responsible for the workings of the mill was very interesting and information, clearly knowing a lot about the history and running of the mill. On Sundays, subject to numbers, they do milling demonstrations, which we'd like to see another time.

Excellent place to visit. The tour was very informative and both members of staff were knowledgeable and enthusiastic.

We were lucky with the weather as our visit was over the Easter weekend. We had a personal guide which meant that you could ask as many questions as you wished. We were given a bit of the history surrounding the site. Records show that there has been a mill on the site since 1539. The current mill was rebuilt in 1814 after a fire. It was extended in the 1930's. The mill stopped production in 1982 & was sold to the National Trust for Scotland in 1992.We were shown how the grain was dried, stored and then milled. The nearby stream supplies the water to turn the wheel at constant speed. Our guide was very good at explaining the way the mill was operated and how those who worked there spend their day.Really facsinating. Great day out for the family. There is a picnic area on site.
