Had a great day out with the kids, they loved the telephone boxes, play ground and train ride. Volunteers were very friendly and knowledgeable, kids learned a few things along the way. Plenty of picnic spots around too. Reasonably priced day out and not crowded. We loved it!

Avoncroft is really lovely, the windmill is particularly impressive and I also love the telephone box collection. It's good for kids as you can phone between some of the boxes, and there is also a tardis. Avoncroft do weddings too, the main hall is a really nice space, and it's a great location for photos!

I was skeptical at first but wow, what an amazing place. It’s amazing how they dismantle and rebuild the buildings. The staff are amazing especially the really nice couple in the toll house. We WILL be back and getting a family season ticket, 5 stars isn’t enough 10/10

Fascinating old buildings - and phone boxes!
I visited the museum mainly because I wanted to see Danzey Green Post Mill (a rare Midlands type of mill) and the unique collection that includes all types of official Post Office phone box. But there is so much more - you can spend ages discovering everything!
I would like to thank Peter, our guide, for a lovely tour of the buildings and an informative talk. To have the focus of a tour guide always makes a visit more meaningful.
What a great museum, we will be back!
