We enjoyed the informal garden. We're disappointed by the formal gardens and the house needing a lot more care.
The forest walk was worth it all the same.

Very good Museum. No entry fee just donations a good thing for a family group. Spent a good three hours there. Well worth the visit.

Lovely movements at own pace, very educational. My Grandaughter was very questioning.

Good place to visit but there was some issues with the online booking as the staff members inside the military museum told me that I would have to book it online to enter inspite of the staff at the entrance having records of our booking ( she was a very friendly lady and 5stars for her). There was a failure of communication between the reception staff and the staff member inside causing us to wait for some time. That being said definitely recommend visiting it . Loved the fossil exhibit

Fab way to spend a couple of hours for children and adults alike. It's free, a donation is very welcome but it's not pushed! Enjoy.

Fantastic Museum. Well worth a visit. Spent 2 and a half hours there and could have spent more time but the car parking ticket was about to expire. If in this area in the future we will definitely go back again.

Lots for children to get involved in. Very interesting. My grandaughter enjoyed tThe Horrible Histories and drawing event outside in the ground. Thought the Saxon house and talk on the history of the ruins grandaughter was very interested and thrilled to be able to do some archery.

A super covid safe experience today with the addition of meeting illustrator, Annabel Tempest, and seeing the Martin Brown Horrible Histories display! Caring staff, especially in the court yard to welcome you and check you in. Yummy coffee in the courtyard afterwards. Yet another fabulous visit. Thank you!

Nice little museum that’s located in castle square in Taunton city centre, free entry although a donation is requested which to be fair is well deserved as it is small but packed with information and knowledgeable guides. Very friendly staff

The museum and the palace are ok, nothing spectacular but it is free so 5 stars are well deserved. The staff is the top!
