Avoca Village
Historic weaving mill with shop and café in Avoca village; seasonal guided mill tours and garden picnic tables.
About
In the heart of Avoca village, this is the original Avoca site with a working weaving mill alongside a compact retail store and a simple self-service café. Families drift between the throws and gifts, grab soup, sandwiches and cakes, then step outside to picnic tables by the garden and river. The guided mill tour (spring to autumn) is the standout for kids who like seeing machines and making; you watch looms working and walk the short route with a guide. It’s a gentle outing rather than a full day: browse, a bite to eat, and the tour. Best for ages 5+ if you plan to do the mill tour.
