Small but engaging museum reflecting life during the second world war with much Churchill memorabilia. Free entrance. Allow an hour unless studying everything!Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Felt a bit misled by what’s advertised online, took us about 10 minutes to see the whole thing, do not intend to have a day out here as you will be disappointed. Interesting things to see mainly about Churchill. Online it states there is a restaurant and even a children’s soft play? Which is incorrect, the soft play is now gone and it’s just a sofa with a coffee machine in the middle of the room where you make it yourself and pay the receptionist, not a restaurant. A huge disappointment.
Stayed at Stratford lodge retreat based pn the site of the armouries,lodges ate very good,,two good bedrooms with white linen,rach jad s dressing area,one had bathrooms with bath and double shower above the other a large walk-in shower,all white towels provided, lovely lounge dining and kitchen,full oven and hob on the island, microwave and washer dryer,yea coffee jot chocolate sugar milk and biscuits welcome pack along with t towel scourer cloth and mini washing up liquid,lodge was beautifully warm with central heating and double glazing,there is a large balcony with good quality furniture,of you like peace and quiet then this is lovely.
A small but very nice museum - if you're a fan of Churchill there's quite a lot to see!Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Small but still very interesting museum and free. Friendly staff with small reception area with refreshments. Really needs to update the website as certain pictures no longer exist..however museum is Free! And on site is a new lodge Retreat with above and beyond staff at 5 * standard. Farm area nearby but peaceful and quiet with horses to feed on a nearby field. Lovely break at any time of the year.
Great little museum, with such a variety in one place. Pleasant staff. Shame there wasn't a card reader for donations too. If though small I am sure I will be popping back again to read through and study more of the exhibitions.
This is a great little museum based on World War 2 and located at the edge of a former RAF airfield, which is now used as a private gliding club. Although it is small, the museum is packed with lots of items on display. It is open every day and is free to enter. If you are interested in World War 2 history, then it is certainly worth a visit. There is not really anything for children unless they are interested in learning about the war. Taking your time to look at all items and read everything, it might take you about 45 minutes at the museum. So a small museum but filled with lots of rare and important historical items from the war. The museum has recently undergone a makeover, so old photos and reviews online may no longer be relevant. Plenty of space in the car park which has a hard gravel surface. There is one electric charging point for cars. Some grass alongside the car park for a picnic in nice weather. On entering the reception, there are soft chairs next to a hot drinks machine, and an information board with leaflets of other tourist attractions. There are toilets for men, women, and disabled. The museum only has three rooms, but they are large. The first room is dedicated just to Winston Churchill, and most items are in glass cabinets. There is a full size model of Churchill sitting at a desk, and some rare items including a few hats owned by Churchill. The next room has a partial frame of a RAF Wellington bomber that crashed in 1940 in Scotland; a full-size World War 1 trench scene made from paper mache; and some displays for Pegasus Bridge inside glass cabinets. The third room is dedicated just to Pegasus Bridge with most items inside glass cabinets. There are full size models of British and German soldiers, with a machine gun and mortar on display, a large model of the Pegasus Bridge battle, and a reproduction of a typical wartime office and army stores.
