SCHOOL VISITS

A great family day out...

“I cannot praise this museum enough; the fact that the site is of historical importance is one thing but what they’ve done inside the original huts is amazing!… There’s truly something for everyone here.” – Steven, Trip Advisor

Perfect Weekend...

“We went at the weekend which was perfect as not too busy. Lots to see, read and experience. We loved all singing in the Vera Lynn music hall and the bunkers were really atmospheric. We were a family 8 years to 66 years and all enjoyed, plus a great history lesson”. Gill – Trip Advisor.
