Sopley Mill, Sopley

This is a restaurant, where drinking alcohol, including draught and bottled beer, is only allowed when food is being consumed.

The beautifully-situated Riverside Sopley Mill Bar & Restaurants sits astride a millstream off the River Avon, in an area rich in wildlife. Milling ceased in 1955 but some well-preserved machinery survives. The ground floor Swannery Restaurant is beamed and overlooks the riverside lawn. The top two floors, reserved for special occasions, contain a function suite and the Riverview Restaurant. The riverside garden and front patio are available all year for alfresco dining. Morning coffee and afternoon tea are served, and Ringwood ales are available by the bottle.
