I discovered Path Head Watermill a few yeas ago while walking past with my little dog and the place intrigued me. I always felt it would be lovely to be able to go in for a coffee, which you couldn’t at that time.
The Mill Race Tearooms are now open on Saturdays and Sundays from 10.30am – 3.30pm. Last orders 3pm. See you there!
The mill and grounds are run entirely by volunteers, who are involved in all aspects of the life of our special place: gardening, woodwork, operating the cafe, meeting-and-greeting, fundraising, erecting the marquees, building bridges, dry-stone walling, general maintenance, family activities, helping at events…
You don’t need to come every week, and you don’t need to have any special skills – if you want to help but don’t know what you could offer, just send us an email or give us a ring to arrange for an informal chat.

Hi I'm John … a retired Engineer and fell walker. I really enjoy working here, grass cutting and general maintenance. My fellow volunteers are so easy to work with and the craic is great fun.
In 2022 I took part in a well-being walk with Gateshead Art Diamonds at Path Head Watermill - I was completely delighted, it felt like falling in love! I've been coming to the Mill most Tuesdays since then.
