Tranquil and beautiful, Claythorpe is a small, family run attraction set in the grounds of our 18th century watermill. The mill last ran in the late 1970s but you can still see the remaining millworks and learn more about its varied industrial history.Today the pace of life is slower. Enjoy the animals, sit by the river, soak up the atmosphere or unleash the kids on the swings.We're a small place and most people will allow a couple of hours for their visit, staying for coffee and cake or lunch in our excellent café. But there’s no hurry so why not feed the birds and take your time over a relaxing visit and a glass of wine?We are closed during the coronavirus crisis. These are cruel times for everybody, and for the foreseeable future, sadly there will be no business as usual at Claythorpe.
If you're planning to visit in future and would like to help us with cashflow through this crisis, we'd be grateful if you could think about buying your tickets now using our Gift Vouchers page.
Our zero-contact pizza takeaway is operational – Our next pizza nights will be SATURDAY 11th APRIL. Open for bookings NOW.
We are also working on a plan to offer very limited zero-contact visits to Claythorpe for some vital fresh air and safe time away from the house..
We'll announce our plans very soon, though all plans are subject to change in line with the current official advice.
Stay well.
Rebecca & Mike
