I have to say that this was far more exciting than I had expected it to be! On visiting Matlock Bath we did one of those ‘shall we pop in here’? visits that turned out to be great! Really informative on the Mining in the Peak District (as you’d expect) with fun shafts to climb through too. A well stocked gift shop, great for adults wanting books or keep-sakes and plenty of pocket money value items too. Would definitely recommend, great value for money. We plan to return to do the guided tour into a mine.

Such an interesting and fun museum! Even if you're not interested in mining etc, this has some fascinating exhibits/information about geology etc that will intrigue any visitor. Also some fun things for kids, like being able to climb through the tunnels built in the walls in and around the exhibits. Definitely recommend!

Fantastic please to visit. I've been soo many times and it never gets boring. A wealth of information. There are also tunnels and shafts built into the walls of the museum for the little and big kids amongst us to enjoy. The mine is also a fantastic visit. Not very expensive either. Well worth the money

An incredibly interesting museum with lots of enlightening exhibits including recreated mine shafts and tunnels, mining equipment, steam engines. Just the right amount of explanation on adjacent boards. More than worth the £4 entry fee. A must if you are technically interested or interested in mining history.

Really enjoyed the museum and the tour but the guide is a pervert! Made a brilliant day very awkward. I really don't get a lot of time to spend with my kids as I'm a single mum and I work very hard so when I book time off and take my kids out for the day I don't expect the tour guide to ask me out on a date with my children present! I came to have a good time and to spend time with my little family ..... not to be perved over by a bloke who looks old enough to be my dad!
