What visitors say

Nick Coleman

Interesting little museum in a housing estate. They gave a good activity centre not just for kids. Good example of a private roman bath.

A small roman site in the middle of a residential area. A bathouse and some other rooms. Some finds. Some good documentation about it's excavation. Helpful staff. Only taking cash payments.

This fascinating place is situated on the outskirts of Newport, Isle of Wight. The remains offer a most interesting insight into Roman history and are in a remarkable state of preservation. Some of the floors still contain remnants of mosaics and there are well written labels giving interesting information about each section of the villa.

Went to an activity day, had lots of fun. Check on opening dates and times. Just a short walk from the bus station. Very compact but very interesting.
