The Isle of Wight Military and Heritage Museum is operated by and for a registered charity . The charity uses any excess income from that museum to support ex service personal . It is firmly under the control of a board of trustees with a professional management team in place . This will secure the museum as a living memorial to the sacrifices that ordinary people are , all to often , called upon to make when diplomacy fails and armed conflict breaks out . It brings together items of historical interest and is largely staffed by volunteers who are typically ex service people who regularly give guided tours and talks . It has a cafe and the fully licensed Mess Bar in a former barracks building . The museum is not just a store of artifacts, it aims to be a hub for ex-service personnel to meet , share their knowledge and experience and access services tailored to their needs. The museum also provides volunteer posts for others in need . Any surplus income and donations from the museum go towards furthering these aims.
We incorporated this into a day trip to the island. Wow! This museum has plenty of parking and a very reasonable entry fee. For anyone with even a passing interest in militaria this place is a must. I don't think I've ever seen so much stuff in one place. Weaponry, vehicles, local heritage items (even some weapons that you can handle - rarely found in museums). The place is run mainly by very enthusiastic and knowledgeable volunteers, and in my experience museums like this are overtaking the major, national museums in terms of content. Definitely going back on any future trip as I didn't manage to study and absorb everything. Oh, and there is a cafe so you can eat there as well!

Great place and staff with good selection of Ales German beers and various gins. Great live music and friendly company in a cosy environment as quite compact so get in early when music is on.
