Saturday 27/04/24 Wow what a find absolutely beautiful buliding as old as 1826. Unreal to think all this was actually somebodies family home some very interesting children grew up here with an unbelievable fascination for nature and ther surroundings their collection expresses this and has been helped to be preserved with the up most care by some very talented people. There is no entry free but I did donate PS5.00 for 2 persons. (see photo of machine below) A souvenir gift shop with Pencils, Rubbers ,Pens,key Rings, little note books,. This place should really interest some schools for visiting . By the way the TITUS is reference to a T- Rex dinosaur. Secret Gardens only open Thursdays their is an entry fee.
The museum is set inside a beautiful building, its stunning. The exhibits are very interesting, and from what we saw of the grounds it is set in some fantastic countryside . We saw deers, which was beautiful and had some food and drinks in the cafe. The cafe is quite cold at this time of year, so wrap up warm. There are also a couple of nice little shops, all in all a very pleasant visit.
Loved it here lots to see and the miniature event was great.fantastic for all ages young or old
Walking up from the car park you will see the beautiful Wollaton Hall building from far. The museum has free entry available and it is exactly what it says: If you are a fan of dinosaurs and natural history, that's the place for you. It's a medium size museum, and it can take up from 30 to 45 minutes.
Surprisingly good taxidermy collection... If you overlook the fact a lot of beautiful creatures have been shot by Victorians and put on display, it's a good way to spend an afternoon.
Amazing place, if you ever get chance you must come, I did the tour & so worth it, my tour guide was amazing too & took me everywhere from Roof top to Cellar, would definitely do again
