Entrance fee is 7.50 and absolutely worth it. Collections were amazing filled with WW1 and WW2 relics and firearms. Even had a chance to hold a rifle with permission from staff under direct supervision!

Paid £7.50 per adult. Amazing historical artefacts. They have many things to see from medals, guns, uniforms, tents and even trenches! They have items used from World War 1 to World War 2. There are also military vehicles used during the world war. This is worth every penny of your money if you are really interested in historical military artefacts.

What a fantastic museum to visit. We visited today and spent quite a few hours taking in all the information, displays and memorabilia on display. Nothing was too much trouble for the volunteers who took the time to make the visit such a brilliant experience. I would highly recommend that you take the time to visit and support this venue you will not be disappointed. We look forward to going back in the new year to take in the new displays that are being planned.

An Aladdins cave of military items. The staff/volunteers couldn't have been friendlier. Fascinating listening to real life examples of how they used certain items. Would highly recommend.

What an amazing Military Museum and collection of military memorabilia and historical artifacts from before WW1 to present day. Run by Ian Stuart and a wonderful Team of people who have dedicated their time and effort to preserve the memories of the fallen too A fantastic experience just to wander around the museum and outdoor displays is a humbling experience. I'd recommend visiting here, and thank Ian and this team. The coffee and Tunnocks were well received too. Thank you 😁 🇬🇧🎖️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍

Fantastic museum! I absolutely love it here and I will have to say you'd likely spend many hours looking at everything and getting the full experience or may need to split it into two days as there's so much on offer here. If you love military history this is heaven. The staff are wonderful and a good laugh to chat to. super welcoming, very good value for entry cost, great location, although no cafe there is always the offer of tea/coffee etc from staff. Many things here to enjoy and also one of the biggest military history libraries (I believe it's in the process of being catalogued). Accessible and just a great place to visit. The ww1 trench that is there to experience is amazing! So many things... please visit and enjoy. Fantastic experience.
