Very interesting and atmospheric,easy to imagine living in those times.Plenty to see and ponder at your leisure.

The innovative audio presentation in the main hall set the scene perfectly. Audio guides added further interesting information. Displays were clear and appropriate, giving sufficient information without overload. The plants in the garden were very well labelled and the area looked well tended, even in January.
Very pleasant cafe - coffee before our tour and lunch following our visit made for the perfect 3 hours. Thank you and congratulations on an excellent refurbishment.

What a wonderfully set up museum, full of information and using some innovative ways to set the scene and impart information. We used the hand held audio sets, which worked perfectly and gave just the right amount of detail.
We finished off with lunch in the cafe, which was reasonably priced and served good food. Thanks especially to Clare in the cafe for her efficiency and calm at what was a busy time.
Absolutely worth a visit, a beautiful, atmospheric place.

We collected a hand held audio set at the entrance and after a dramatic introduction in the "Hall" set off to explore. The commentary was easy to listen to and interesting. Well worth a visit whether you are a Southampton resident or a visitor.
