Visiting the UK from Singapore and made the trip down from St.Andrews to made a special visit to the museum only to find out on arrival it is closed. As a Fellow of the Lunar Society I had planned for months to pay a visit to this historic house and was very much looking forward to exploring what was on offer. UPDATE YOUR TIME ON GOOGLE.
Sadly closed although being told by the info people at the library it would be open today. Been trying to visit since before covid times. As visiting from australia. Sad such wonderful local history blocked. Told because of council debt of millions
Only went once back in 2010 around 14 years ago. At the time had to sign photo release form. This was before the Birmingham Museums Trust was formed. Sad to hear it's now closed for maintenance. Used to be a cafe here. Also the Soho House sphinxes was moved back here years ago. Only saw them at BM & AG in early 2010s.
Lovely , quiet and relaxing atmosphere. Volunteers were very knowledgeable and I learn about many facts regarding Soho house. There were a tall gentleman with grey hair and a lady with a beautiful flower cord over the hair and they tell us different interesting things about Lunar society , about Birmingham in that time. That make me feel proud of the city I live in.The museum looks great and take us in 17th-18th century. In every room were panels where you can read about what that room shown and other few important informations. Museum are laying on ground and first floor where you can reach by using the stairs or using the lift. On the other wing by the house is a Cafe where you can have a ground coffee,tea, cakes, fruits, drinks. You can serve it in or out in the little garden. Also, anyone can enjoying doing some crafts while having a hit/cold drink. There is a little garden and also parking, including for disabled people. Despite that Soho House is located by Soho road which is a very busy road there was so much quietness and peaceful. I couldnt believe I'm just by the main road and the sounds can penetrate the peaceful and relaxing atmosphere here. I would definitely be back soon and spend more time here.
Had a lovely picnic last Sunday. We set off Handsworth choir sang well. An orchestra entertained us while we are. There was arty crafty stuff going on and entrance to the house was free, it was great meeting friends. There was a lovely cake for the 100th anniversary of the civic society. We lazed on the grass, watched people play croquet, dribbling football, having a good time. We didn't go in the hall but some of the guys came out in costume. It's strange that in the way there we asked people who didn't know where it was. They need to leaflet
We were so disappointed that the house was closed because of a plumbing issue. I have been waiting 3 years to visit during my trips to Birmingham and this time holidays did not block it. With all the birmingham industrial age history crammed into the new museum, this is the only place left to get a feel of the historic importance of bham.
Fab visit Once the home of the great Mathew Boulton and a regular meeting place of the Lunar Society.
Enjoyed viewing Vanely Burke's 'Blood and Fire' photographic display. The photos were inspiring and informative, and the memorabilia ignited some happy childhood memories. The staff were helpful and knowledgeable about the exhibition and the venue.
Our guide, Ali, was very knowledgeable and very interesting. It's great to have a museum dedicated to such a important aspect of Birmingham history. As we entered, it was clear that a children's activity had been taking place, but the house itself had plenty to occupy our attention too, as a much older generation.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNot sure
This building is an important part of world history. The industrial revolution began to take shape here. The guided tours varied in quality tho the content was interesting. National trust members get a good discount although I had to ask.
