The hat museum was not part of our original plan, but turned out to be a nice way to spend an couple of hours. The staff we're lovely and welcoming. I recommend taking a camera,for the little dressing up area, my daughter and I had a great time trying on all the hats in the activity zone.

I was very impressed with this place. Meant to go in numerous times and never quite made it. Ventured in on Saturday after the Makers Market and not dissapointed. Entry is free but I paid a fiver for the tour that I got all to myself. Highly recommend this! Sue was a great guide! Having a strong family connection to the industry made the information really personable and come alive. If you come to look around its still amazing but you may miss some of the inside interesting stories. Lovely gift shop too and loads of courses and workshops. Brilliant place and really makes you look at stockport and it's history as you walk around it today.

My eldest daughter aged 7 decided she would like to be a Milner so this was a must for us but the whole family enjoyed it (1, 3 ,5, 7 and mid 20's ) the place is immaculate, staff were friendly and its fully wheelchair accessible. There is a great deal of fun to be had for the children from making hats, dressing up and playing with materials. They have an impressive display of hats and machinery! It was free (tours are £5 per adult, kids free) but donations are most welcome and worth it, I would highly recommend this museum

If you'd think this was boring think again. The way hats were made is interesting, what it took to do it and how they were used so much in society is has a lot behind it. Great visit to this museum.
