    Worth every pence!

    Brilliantly organised, we arrived to the car park which has no hight restriction! Welcomed by the super helpful car park man who was such a kind soul, parking for free! Then going to reception to a woman who remembered us from a phone call the previous day! The setting was lovely, fun, informative history fact, with things to actually touch! And very clear instructions to where to go! At the end, we went through the gift shop which had great selection of things, all with an electric wheelchair, access was 10/10! Highly recommended.
