Visited Dunster museum and doll collection with my wife after visiting Dunster Castle which is nearby, Plenty of history about the area inside and an amazing doll collection of all different types of dolls from different times in the past up to the modern day, Definitely worth a look around and it's free to enter, They do have a toilet on the ground floor as you enter on the right just after the stairs, There are stairs to negotiate inside, they do have a lift for people in wheelchairs, but it was out of order on the day we visited 25th April 2024, 3 ladies while we were visiting were spinning wool, Definitely worth a visit

I took my two daughters aged 4 and 6. A very nice museum to spend some time in. They enjoyed seeing the great selection of dolls and doing the colouring/drawing provided. We especially enjoyed the dollhouses which are beautiful. The lady who welcomed us in was lovely and took time to chat to the girls and show them how the dog coin roller worked on the front desk. Thank you!
