An absolute gem! The main museum and gardens are free - the butterfly enclosure, aquarium and additional exhibitions are a small cost (which add up if you do them all). Plenty to look at for free though if you're on a budget and fancy a day out.
The butterfly enclosure is actually magical, you'll feel like a Disney princess (yes, even you Dave).
A wonderful world culture collection full of interesting artifacts and information.
Also a huge collection of musical instruments from different places and times in history.
Hands on educational things for the small ones todo and the museum is not so huge as to be completely overwhelming!
The gardens are beautiful and there is an animal walk with rabbits, sheep and alpacas which is free to walk through.
The shop is full of things to spend your money on and the staff /volunteers were absolutely lovely at every encounter.
Parking available at a small cost behind sainsburys, it is an uphill walk from there so be prepared for that. The museum is also accessible by public transport.
Overall, an old favourite and lovely day out to fit any budget and all ages.
