We visited for the Sci Fi Saturday event which tied in with a Dr Who temporary exhibition and had a great time! A fascinating museum with plenty of great displays on the history of the Somerset area. The museum is very child friendly with accessible displays and children's activities.Visited on

Been visiting twice and they have a nice museum with plenty of things to watch including fossils, English history, romans and many more or if you got hungry, they have a coffee shop where you can just sit and relax. It follows with a gift shop as you can buy mini fossils and rocks and if your children gets bored, you can have an activity for just £1 and they gets a treat at the end. Truly recommend this museum as it contains many stories about history.

An amazing place to visit, we went with our 5 grandchildren, age range from 15 months old to 7 yrs old, and their Mum's.
We spent a fabulous afternoon, packed full of entertainment and interesting artifacts and information.
We were lucky to have visited on Dinosaur week, which the older ones loved.
The cafe was very busy, but reasonably priced, with polite staff. We luckily found an outdoor table for us all
A great find by our daughter in law, and we will definitely be coming back on a regular basis.

It's mostly archaeology, military, and a Doctor Who display. The museum has been modernised, but the exhibits didn't grab my attention. There are facilities for a long stay but not necessary. I'm glad I went, but once you've been, there's nothing to make you want to return.Visited on
