What visitors say
What a great museum covering life on dartmoor, highly recommended, staff were lovely, car park around back.

A quite interesting museum with a very fascinating history. It’s child-friendly, which makes visiting much easier, as there’s something at every step that helps kids learn in a less boring way. The staff are very helpful and friendly. A quick tour can take around an hour, but if you want to dive into the details, you could easily spend the whole day there. I highly recommend a visit and wish the museum continued success
