Visit here mid-week and you'll probably be able to wander on your own around the swamp. Some of the paths, particularly near the entrance are very muddy/wet at this time of year so good foot wear is essential. This is a great space to clear your head and just enjoy nature.

I took my son and his friend (both 5) to the first “free” Open Day on Thursday 6th August. We were told it was the first day that the Museum had been opened in 2020 and due to covid restrictions, some of the exhibitions were closed hence having a free opening to the public. My son and his friend hadn’t been before and were wowed by the windmill (exterior), the classroom, vintage vehicles and the telephone exchange. The staff were really friendly and prices of items in the gift shop were really reasonable (luckily for Mummy)! We hope to return again once more of the exhibits are allowed to re-open again.
