A three night yoga retreat with Felicity Wood
Boconnoc is lucky enough to have one of the few remaining water-powered sawmills still in operation. Many know Boconnoc for its beautiful landscapes, weddings, events and as a film and photography location, but not for this fascinating feature. The Boconnoc Sawmill is run by a water-powered turbine which was originally installed in 1909, prior to this it was powered by a water wheel. The turbine produces 38hp and has a Stenner Rack Bench with an inserted tooth blade. The turbine was completely renovated in 2010. Mena Woodwork - a small focused workshop run by Olly, based on the Boconnoc Estate, specialising in functional understated and sustainable furniture. Where possible they use oak from the estate so the partnership between Boconnoc and Mena creates a sustainable and quality product with a beautiful story to tell. There are two ponds which are controlled by a sluice and feed a leat which runs the turbine. Boconnoc uses the sawmill to mill their own timber, mainly oak, which is turned into beams, lintels and other products. Some soft woods are cut to provide materials for use on the estate as well as cutting wood for businesses like Olly’s who have a sustainable ethos. Dates available: To book...
