A pleasant enough stop but probably best suited to families and younger visitors. The Winter Gardens features a tropical glasshouse, souvenir shop, cafe, and a koi fish pond which are lovely, and there are a few exhibits dotted around, but it's more of a quick visit than a full afternoon out. Free entry makes it worth a look if you're nearby, just don't go in expecting an extensive museum experience.
such a cool place to visit for FREE.. Taxidermy display is pretty awesome. so much history about our local docks. very interesting for all ages !!
The Lowry exhibits were especially interesting. Make sure you see and touch the relief copy of one of his paintings. It was created by a blind and a partially sighted person to allow such people to appreciate the painting.
This is a fun little museum. Free to enter, with no need to book. It covers a variety of things! Like history, geology, biology and art! I went with my kids who loved it. And I really enjoyed it too. The winter gardens are very beautiful and the little cafe is comfy and nice.nWe will absolutely visit again to keep exploring it!
I recently visited this museum and since it’s free, that’s definitely a big plus. It makes it accessible to everyone, which I really appreciate.nThe first few rooms felt a bit odd and slightly hard to connect with. I’m not sure if it was the layout or the way the exhibitions were presented, but it didn’t immediately draw me in. There’s also a small library located in the middle of the museum, which felt unusual. It’s more like a mini library, but its placement was unexpected and slightly disrupted the flow.nnUnfortunately, the toilets near the entrance were broken, which led to a medium to long queue. That was frustrating and something that could definitely be improved.nIt was also quite noisy during my visit. There were many children running around and screaming while people were trying to read the displays. I understand that museums are open to families, but it did make it harder to fully focus and enjoy certain parts of the experience.nThere is an indoor humid garden area, which is a nice idea in theory. However, some of the plants looked like they could use better care.nnOn a more positive note, the art on the highest floor was genuinely nice and probably the highlight of my visit.nOverall, it’s worth visiting, especially since it’s free, but there are areas that could be improved to make the experience more comfortable and cohesive.
