Beautiful Little Village
…Can't keep away from the vintage clothes shop and the gift shop next door. Lovely meals in the recently cafe with friendly cheerful staff, it's a little gem of a place. My Nephew enjoyed climbing up the old windmill, okay if you don't mind heights.

Lovely Café
…Lovely café, children’s playground and a set of lovely little shops. Great place to send a couple of hours. The windmill itself is very interesting and you can climb to the top.

Our History.
Wymondham Windmill is a restored 19th-century windmill, home to an award winning tearoom, unique boutique shops, play area and woodland trail, private hire venue and barn, with tranquil countryside accommodation—offering a relaxed and welcoming rural escape for all.
In 2016, Wymondham Windmill received funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) and East Leicestershire LEADER for an exciting project, The Living Mill, in Wymondham.
The project saw the historic mill conserved and its story told by people in the local community. Essential repair and restoration works were completed in 2017.
The beginning of a new chapter in our windmill’s history began.
