Morwellham Quay - Tavistock

Spaghetti P.

Being left to rot and overgrow. Absolutely vile. There are few historical gems like this in the world and it should be a crime to let it get in this state. There is black mold on the clothes in the victorian dress up. The historical boat is being left to rot in the boat area. There is a hole in Ruth's cottage roof and real books from the 1800s left to rot away on the piano and drawers. Lots of the owner's junk is left in the historical shed areas like a cake or pasty display thing which the barrels they placed just aren't going to hide no matter how much they try. The farm yard is closed off and full of junk and weeds and even had a recently dead mouse on the ground just to add to the lifelessness there. The market gardens where strawberries and pumpkins previously grew has been let to grow over and also has been closed off and you can just about see the old greenhouse over the tall over grown weeds. This is history rotting before your eyes. History that can't be made again.

Great day out to a place that I have always intended to visit. Spur of the moment decision and really pleased we went.
Very interesting with live interactive displays and a fantastic rail journey into the mine. Lovely people and very informative.
Oh yeah and a beautiful lunch in the local pub.
Only disappointment, I forgot to pick up a few bottles of the ale that is brewed on site. Never mind!

Beautiful place, me and my partner found this gem and have fallen in love. Beautiful place, views. Food was amazing, staff lovely. Will definitely be going back very soon and agreed we will stay there for our 20th anniversary in October. Thank you for having us

Honestly a wonderful experience. The amazing, friendly, knowledgable staff. The site is so beautifully maintained and cared for and resides in such a gorgeous location. The activities such as chocolate making and victorian school were so well done and the train ride through a mine was something I didn’t think I’d ever do. They squeezed us in early for a quick tour of the site which was really going the extra mile as they had a school trip in shortly after opening. I couldn’t recommend this place more if you have an interest in history, mines, engineering or anything Victorian. The site is also accessible for people whom may find walking difficult and they have a buggy to drive you up to the mine train as the walk up is quite steep.

To sum it up, this is a must see if you’re in Devon!

Wonderful place to.visit, especially the mine train. We've been twice now with a gap.of.5 years and things have changed. There is a huge soft play area and the mine has been much improved.
Lost a star because several of the cottages were closed.

Me and my husband came here as school children and tried the victorian clothing on so it was great to come back as adults and really enjoy everything morwellham has to offer which is also dog friendly, you can take dogs everywhere on a lead.
Everyone was friendly and the guy that lives in the old school bus he's done up was fantastic and let us inside to have a look. There was a classic car show on which was really nice there were couples having old fashioned styled picnics and listening to old music which was wonderful.
It's surprising how much there is to see at Morwellham and it's well worth a visit aswell as the pub serving really good food
