Great museum for youngsters. Set over 2 floors it has various themes to keep you and your children entertained for a couple of hours
It’s like a children’s & science centre in one. Great fun for couples. Incredible fun for both adults and children alike. Explore with a child-like sense of curiosity and adventure and enjoy the experience learning and experimenting with science, biology, maths, chemistry, physics, genetics, music, art and a fun play area for the under 6. Easily can spend 1/2 a day, get something to eat at The Grub downstairs and continue on with your adventures. Easily accessible. By the ASDA by the beach. Parking available and on a bus route.
Very good place to visit.
I visited with two kids 4 and 6 years.
We came only the last 1 hour and half, it goes quickly and they enjoy it.
I would recommend at least 2-3 hours.
They are 6 zones inside which reflect different sciences with entertainment to learn.
There is a free parking behind the building.
The price for a family ticket was 27£ (2 adults2 kids).
Thank you for the staff they were helpful.
Fantastic place, visited with 3 children age 6, 10 and 12. They all had a great time. We arrived at 10am (Saturday) and by 1pm it was extremely busy so I recommend visiting early. The cafe sells delicious food, highly recommend it too.
First time visiting today and the kids absolutely loved it. So much fun activities to do and interactive classes. We will definitely be back again in the future.
Fantastic afternoon with the family spent here. Was concerned it may be better for younger children but our teens loved it!
Brilliant since its been refurbished! Very quiet when we went in, plenty of staff offering to help and talkative with the kids. Very clean. New exhibits are great, a video or audio explanation to some of them would be useful though, as kids are dyslexic, gives them a bit more freedom to explore (just a suggestion). 3 exhibits were down when we went in and another broke while we were there which is a bit disappointing. Overall good learning experience.
This is a BRILLIANT ESTABLISHMENT!
I enjoyed every second of my visit there, and I found it's goals of the promotion of science and curiosity to be very noble and useful to the betterment of our society and species. I could see kids and adults having a good time.
The facilities and equipment are state-of-the-art, the booking system ensures that the building isn't over-crowded at any given time, and accessibility for everyone is taken into consideration. There are provisions for wheelchairs and other forms of mobility.
The interior is clean, beautifully painted and well-maintained, and the staff are very polite and helpful.
Regarding food and refreshment, there's a cafe in the building with a nice selection of a variety of food, and the prices are not exorbitant or extortionate.
