Great museum/exhibition of the local area with lots of historical information, very unique bookstore on the top floor with a wide range of books from new to old. The cafe is decent (have had drinks/snacks from there multiple times over the years.) and only a tad pricey.

Worth a visit. You can fill your belly with good food (carrot cake is especially nice) from the cafe downstairs and visit the gallery, book shop and learn quite a lot about local history upstairs. There's also a tourist information there with leaflets, walking trails etc. Also, a detailed map/model of Gatehouse of Fleet. The galery features arts and crafts made by the local artists. We were there soon after they reopened after the lockdown and they only served cakes, scones and tea and coffee. Staff are nice. Toilets are clean. John Watt's coffee seems to be popular in the area. You need to decide whether it's to your taste or not. Seats are available inside and out. On a nice day it's nice to sit outside. River Fleet runs right by the mill and there's plenty of wildlife too.

Now converted into a museum, information centre, and second hand book store. The Mrs. would still be in the old book section, if we didn't have somewhere else to be that day.

An old mill with no working equipment but some great exhibits about the area & the mill. There is also a lovely cafe as well.

A fleeting visit as we were in a hurry , museum and craft shop were the highlights , book shop felt like the ones in Wigtown , all volume no order and as we had already eaten elsewhere didnt go into the cafe

A nice little museum which gives a great picture of the towns history. The staff couldn't be more helpful and friendly and gave us a really good chat about the town and its history. Definitely recommend a visit.
