    Treated like a Queen for the day!

    Fantastic experience. Good access. Lift was big enough. It was good that there was seating. We didn't expect it to be so accessible. I didn't use the accessible toilet but I know there was one. There are no toilets I could use above ground level. Staff couldn't have been more helpful.

    Great accessibility and so interesting

    I went twice in one month it was so interesting! Both times were mid week afternoons and the museum was very quiet, first time no other visitors and the second time I saw two in passing. I had almost no problems with accessibility in my electric wheelchair. The staff were very helpful, friendy and knowledgeable. The food was amazing and they have plenty gluten free options.
