Fantastic place to visit, The old Mill has history, the healing stones of St Fillan, a set of 8 river stones,given healing powers by the said Sr.Fillan. The Stones were given to Killin, so they can never be removed. The Old Mill also has local handmade lical produced wares to purchase. The Falls are stunning and well worth a view and more.

Popped into the Mill today for the fayre which runs for the next couple of weeks. It consisted of a lot of local artist and crafters wears. What a lovely, historical environment with knowledgeable, warm and friendly staff. So welcoming and gave us some local tourist advice.

Very lovely shop. It's my pleasure to support local artists. Cheryl was very friendly and explained us the history of the mill very well. Her rings are beautiful and unique. I just had to buy one.

Cute building by the falls, with amazing little finds inside. Besides the thrift store, done if the local crafts/jewellery was quite beautiful at a bargain

This place is run by volunteers and as quirky as it is I loved it. Happened to meet the gentleman who runs it on the street and he opened it for us, while giving us lots of really good information and local tips. It may look like not much but make sure you go to the first floor to check out Saint Fillan's stones and relics, and to learn more about the history of this place. They have an interesting souvenir shop and all the benefits go back to the community so please support them if you can.
