Worth a stop, if nothing more than to have a coffee and see the beauty of the countryside. The people here are exceptionally nice and I can say from first hand experience I wish many of the other places I visited had such hospitality.
Old tools for males, old handicraft for females, wooden horses and other things for children. A lot to see indoor and outdoor. Overall nice building and definitely a good place for those who are interested in history. Was not planning to stay as long as we did, because it surprised us in a positive way. Friendly staff.
We were supposed to just stop by but our visit lasted more than two hours. Kids really loved the tractors and the windmills were beautiful. The food was ok too!
We happened to drive by the site and since we knew Saaremaa is proud of their windmills, we decided to stop. It was worth it. Our kids took great interest in how flour is made and they enjoyed the rusty tractors, as well as the duck-mum teaching her offspring on the small lake. The workshops in the building are also worthy of checking, I especially liked te things made from the local limestone, it is a beautiful stone!
Very interesting place, my girlfriend liked the animals, especially small puppy. We enjoyed the possibility to look into the windmills, nice exposition was also inside the building. Unfortunately we were here too soon to have lunch in the restaurant, so maybe next time.
It's now €2 to see the windmills close up although we mistakenly found a Scottish entrance when we arrived and dodged under a rope we thought was to stop cars. Oops. There is a bar and cafe with staff wearing traditional Estonian costumes. Some of the staff were very friendly and one guy went to his car to get out a guitar to play for us. The Estonians are really pushing the tourist strategy and this seems part of that.
Went to the tourist office in Kuresaare and told we could catch a bus or hire a car to Angla. You think if we told the lady there we would catch a bus, she may have mentioned what it was like in Angla?Caught a bus from Kuressaare bus station, which took about 55 minutes. Arrived at Angla to the windmills, which were great to photograph but nothing else there - it's a small village, no restaurants, shop, or even anywhere to sit except for the bus shelter. Had this been the summer, then it would not have been such an issue but as it is winter, snow, bitterly cold, and the next bus back wasn't until another 2 hours, then it wasn't the place to be.So how do you kill 2.5 hours in Angla when you've seen the windmills and there's nowhere for a coffee or anything? You walk back down the road in the snow for 2.5 kms to an old church the bus passed and take photos - lovely spot but then had to walk the 2.5kms back to Angla as the bus back to Kuressare takes a different road to the one we arrived on...interesting day!
We came to have a look at the windmills while visiting the Island, however there were only two which were complete, the others appeared to be in the process of being rebuilt, completely by scratch from the looks, they also appeared to be building some kind of visitor centre but that was still just a building shell. The structure of the local windmills are very interesting design with the whole windmill swivelling rather than just the top section. This site may be ok in season when open but not much to see at moment!
Very inviting location as the staff is welcoming seemed glad you came. Many things to see, inside the windmills and lots of old farm equipment too. Even some goats as well.
Quite nice. A turkey, some goats and geese are also available at the place. Also, a little suvenir shop is at place. The ground floor has a little museum.
