Really interesting museum about a Roman Villa and life at the time on IOW. The volunteer was so very helpful and gave a lovely insight into the history of the site and the excavations. Great information boards around site and some amazing mosaic s. Allow about an hour to view it. Free parking. Cafe was lovely with small menu, must try those cheeseabd bacon scones :) Be careful though as cafe close at 3 in winter and 3:30 in summer and kitchen stop cooking thirty minutes before. Museum also close at 4 and last entry around 3
