What visitors say

Malcolm Petfield

This is a fantastic museum and definitely worth a visit for young and old. It was so much bigger than we thought. Also lots of history in Tiverton from 2 VC medal recipients, silk making , wonderful church and a castle plus the railways. Come and see for yourself 😊🙌🏻👍🏻 5 ⭐️. All the staff were wonderful thank you 🙏🏻

This is such an essential experience for anyone visiting Devon. It covers everything since prehistoric periods with an emphasis on how people lived. Open the whole year with Tourist Information also on offer, it hugely added to my enjoyment of visiting Devon.

Absolutely lovely museum! There was a lot more to see than I originally thought, and I loved how it was laid out. There's a one way system which means you can easily see every exhibit on offer, without missing anything, and neatly be brought back round to the shop. The staff were really friendly and knowledgeable and it was clear they were passionate about the history too. I 100% recommend this museum if you're nearby and have an hour or two to kill.
