Meeting Chrissy Smith was a true pleasure. She is a very talented textile artist with a deep knowledge of that art. Her shop is a jewel box of yarn and fleeces. Her determination to secure fair prices for the sheep farmers for their Welsh wool is commendable. We look forward to meeting her again.

Just came across this Museum absolutely fascinating, but will come back as after 1.5 hours had only managed half of it. Very well put together exhibition.The cafe is also lovely and we were very surprised that our delicious food was all Vegan. I thought my sandwich was egg and my Husband thought he was eating Pastrami amazing . Will return within the year with the annual pass.

Fantastic shop, Chrissy is so knowledgeable and passionate about keeping British sheep breeds alive and offers lessons in all types of wool crafts. Love this place!

I visited Chrissy last May, from the States. She made me feel at home and was very friendly. She even had me sit down and spin at her wheel! I also got to see her raw fleeces. She gave me all sorts of information and advice for washing, carding and spinning! She has a Wonderful Shop!I bought several of the native Welsh sheep wool that day, and I will be ordering more wool from her shop in the future!

Really interesting museum, and great to learn how the tapestry came about, and businesses created by Quakers. Self guided commentary tour made it easy to learn and understand what you were viewing. Would recommend, plus lovely cafe (small) on the left as you approach from the car park

We are here on holiday and I was really excited to visit! However yesterday and today the shop was closed even though on the website it says open, I shan't bother again. A local person said she is unreliable and only turns up when it suits her. Don't waist your time.

This is such a gem of a shop.It combines olde worlde charm with meeting the need of the modern handspinner.Their range of processed rare breed fleece and hand crafted wooden spinning tools is the best I have ever seen.Chrissy, the founder of The Lost Sheep Co. taught me the joy of spinning and inspired me on my own journey. Little did I know, when I began that I would soon be co-running a weaving studio myself.I look forward to working alongside The Lost Sheep Company on various community projects to inspire new spinners and weavers for many years to come.Julia MusgraveWeaving for Wellbeing FacilitatorSAORImôr
