What visitors say
Beautiful gardens, well looked after by a team of volunteers. We saw a wide variety of birds and a couple of rabbits whilst we had fish and chips gazing out to sea.

Absolutely worth a visit. All of the volunteers today (121025) were very informative and helpful. Fantastic hour seeing the bits and displays. Please make a donation as they don't charge administration.

Absolutely brilliant hour or so soe t here. My son is mad about military and especially WW2 and one of the volunteers spent so much time with him. All the volunteers were brilliant, chatting and so informative. Free to enter but I would have paid for the experience so please leave a do action in the jar as we did. Thanks to all the volunteers for a great time. Paul Borland Glasgow

Fantastic place to visit. One of the smallest museums I've ever visited but also one of the best. I would honestly give more stars if I could. The staff are very knowledgeable and passionate. When you visit make sure you donate (Free to visit, but they run off your donations), we need to make sure places like this exist in the future.
