What visitors say

Amy Hallett

Been to Budleigh lots of times but never been to the museum. Fascinating visit, lots of different areas for all ages to enjoy. Volunteers friendly and knowledgeable. Particular highlight was the Polyphon upstairs, worth taking a few extra 50ps for this! Definitely worth a visit!

Lovely little museum giving the history of the local area, from Sir Walter Relegh to local smugglers. Very helpful volunteer staff. Very interesting. Only access for disabled is a ramp to ground floor.

Lovely visit to the museum, arrived at 2pm and walked straight in, charge of £2.50 each was definitely justified, the ladies who were there were incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, lots of information shared, well laid out exhibits with a small shop at the end. We live locally and found this museum to be a wonderful afternoon visit worth every penny, highly recommend.

went to see the railway history part of the museum, friendly staff and they went to the archives and brought out three railway history files. Because i only had two hours parking I was unable to see all of the museum so i will be making another visit.
