Award winning historic cloth finishing mill, now luxury restaurant with rooms,superb/unique dining

The Weavers Shed Restaurant With Rooms sits in the centre of Golcar, a village perched above the Colne Valley, in the foothills of the Yorkshire Pennine hills. Built in the 18th Century, the restaurant was originally a cloth-finishing mill, in what was an area at the very centre of the West Riding textile trade. In the early 1970's, its owner, Derek Wade, converted the building into a restaurant and it has been trading ever since.

Present owners Stephen & his family decided to plough over a fallow field at their home to create the Kitchen Garden, where now, in season, almost 80% of the restaurant's fruit, vegetables and herbs are grown on an organic basis. They then decided to buy the adjoining property (the former mill-owner's house) and convert it into bedrooms. Within a year, the Weavers Shed was voted 'Best Restaurant With Rooms' in the Which? Good Food Guide.
