Took the in laws to see Nundle, with its fully working mill. Great welcome from the lady at the counter, great seeing the mill and even better the shop offering great items for sale. Something for everyone. Awesome attraction.
Don't miss this area!! The woollen mill is great, the antique shop is a great little wander and the pub for a drink in the beer garden is relaxing!!
Nice to visit this little village worth the drive. Rich in gold mining history and very interesting. Wish we had more time to look a bit more.
A lovely part of NSW driving to Nundle through all the sheep filled fields. The mill is fascinating with 100 year old machinery, still working, but sadly not on the day we visited. A vast array of wool & garments available to purchase. Appeared to be much imported product, from Japan, Peru, Spain etc which was surprising.Also, I was later informed that the prices were rather steep so you would need to know exactly what you required for a garment before visiting.The friendly staff said they have a website but online shopping was "under construction".
我们是去年年初去 Hanging Rocks時经过此镇. 镇里见到一个小教堂、旅游咨询部、一个酒吧、几个小店、很宁靜. 我们停下参观了本地这个毛纺厂,外面展示毛纺机的工具. 听说这个亦是澳洲全国最后一个这样的羊毛纺织厂. 里面可以看到工人在工作,并有不少羊毛织物出售,我买了不少纯羊毛制作的,价钱对在大商店便宜!
The working heart of the woollen mill is right in the shop and there is a free tour. It was interesting to hear about how the wool is milled but probably more value doing the tour if you knit or are really into woollen products.
Like the town of Nundle the woollen mill is somewhere special. Operational machinery dating back to 1918. Informative and enthusiastic owner. We had a group booking of 80 who had gathered in the Fossikers Tourist Park. Shows the whole process off raw wool to finished yarn. Retail shop attached has a great selection of wool garmets and yarn. Loved the amazing merino wool blend jeans (cool in summer, warm in winter) - amazing feel & excellent fit ($130). Can you believe how fine wool must be for t shirts and business shirts. Business shirts highly desirable garmet but we resisted the $140 for a shirt. I did buy a pair of jeans. Delighted with these.
The Nundle woollen mill is a lovely place to visit, Browse the history of wool making as well as buy gorgeous pure wool to make lovely garments. There is also lovely ready made products you can buy to wear...it is very hard to find lovely pure wool garments like this in other places.
Wonderful free tour, fascinating to see each piece of machinery in action. Very knowledgeable guides.If you can't find anything in the gift shop you haven't looked - wool garments, souvenirs, toys and an impressive range of Nundle's beautiful yarn.
Well worth the trip to Nundle to see the last fully opertational woollen mill in Australia. My grandsons loved the tour and learning about how wool was produced. The fact they could touch the wool in its very stages and also see the machinery full operational had them in awe. The gift shop is also impressive with a wide range of woollen products on sale and reasonably priced. Thoroughly recommend the experience worth the detour if travelling in the area
