Fun for all the family

Hi - My name is Mille and my job is to make sure all the children that visit The Darley Mill Centre have a fantastic time. I've been working very hard and would like to tell you all about what I have been doing.

  • I've spoken to the chef and we have a very special children's menu - absolutely yummy!
  • You can feed my friends - the ducks on the mill race
  • There is a small children's play area outside
  • We sell some great Childrens books - I'm sure you will find one you like
  • There is a Duck Hunt - with prizes for everyone who takes part.

I hope you will be able to visit me soon and let me know what a great time you've had.
