Solva Mill is the oldest working woollen mill in Pembrokeshire and the only mill in Wales that specialises
in weaving flat weave stair runners and rugs. The mill also offers a bespoke weaving service and recent
commissions include rugs for Llwynywormwood Estate, Prince Charles's Welsh home, and reproduction historic
carpeting for several historic houses in the USA. The original 10ft overshot waterwheel was restored to
celebrate the mills centenary in 2007. There is a mill shop, tearoom, free entrance and free parking.
