A most amazing little museum.. It is just reopened after closing for COVID-19. Well worth the visit and they really need our support right now. It was like a tardis unassuming on the outside but vast on the inside.. went on and on.. with bomb shelters, rooms of memorabilia and even a recreated high street...trenches too. My kids loved dressing up.. so much effort made by the owners. Great thing to do on a rainy morning

This museum gives a fascinating insight into wartime Britain. It is great to see how much they've fitted in. I took a group of school children, and they all thoroughly enjoyed it.

Fascinating place, I would really recommend it for all ages. Information is clearly displayed and exhibits explained in a straightforward way, but also provide a depth of information if you want it. I came here with my mother - who is 86 and lived through WW2 in Swansea - and my best friend who, like me, grew up in Swansea. There is a lot to see and experience here, and we all learned a lot.

I brought 90 children from our school here to learn about WW2 and we had a fantastic day. The staff are dressed in 1940's clothing, there is a dressing up room for the children, a 1940's street, original newsreels and artifacts and the staff make it a personal experience. It is small but plenty to do, you will need to take your own food but we were made mugs of tea and tables were put outside for us to sit at and very much appreciated. Thank you.

Took my nan over the summer. She really enjoyed looking around and telling me stories about the things in there. Staff were super friendly.
