We rocked up 1 hour before closing and the staff were all fantastic and even gave us a little ride in a Willy's jeep, fantastic museum you'd be hard pished to find better
A hidden gem. It is a place which is hiding a lot of very interesting surprises with its theme as a working airfield during the second world war. They also hold display day's where people come with their stationary engines and military vehicles.
A brilliant museum with so many unique and interesting things to see. Run by inspiring volunteers who are vital to keep the history alive for future generations. Definitely worth taking time to visit.
Fantastic 40's weekend, all re-enacters of all ages taking part did a great job of being dressed for the part and performing the duties of their character. Very willing to demonstrate equipment/weapons on display, some fabulous old vehicles there today. My first visit to the museum, very impressed as lots to see, many interesting exhibits and photographs/educational information. Well worth a visit, reasonable entrance price, the Spitfire Cafe not to missed, clean toilets, all of the staff and volunteers are very friendly with plenty of smiles to greet you , making your visit feel very much appreciated.
What can I say this was a great experience! Everyone there was more than happy to show me and my partner around and tell us all of the great history around the building and in the hangers, we had a great time and the employees made it so much better by telling us stories! Will be going again for sure! Thank you for all the workers we appreciate you.
Cafe at the back serves hor and cold drinks, cakes and biscuits. There's no hot food. Plenty of seating, and a small shop area at the back of the cafe. Plenty to look around and read. Decent sized car park.
