What visitors say
One of the best museums I have visited. I have been there on numerous occasions and loved it every time. Everyone there are friendly and welcoming and the gift shop is lovely. I highly recommend a visit.

This is an absolutely fascinating museum which really has something for everyone. It is unbelievably well-curated and -executed. There are a good café, good loos and a nice shop. The atmosphere is wonderful. The whole place reeks of local and wider history, from a thousand years ago up to last century, focusing on history, commerce and, above all, people. Nothing about it is worn or tatty, it's great for kids to explore and learn things and it's as interactive as you want it to be. There's even a brilliant exhibition to celebrate the first seventy years of Miffy! You must go! Finally, if you have any negative thoughts about Great Yarmouth, throw them aside.

Definitely worth visiting. Give yourself plenty of time. So at least 2 hours. You could easily go longer.Lots of things to keep both young and old entertained. We booked the tickets online. There's a carpark nearby if you're driving. Staff were kind and helpful. There was a special exhibition of 50 years of Miffy which was equally enjoyable. Certainly recommend as an great day out for the family
