Nice time

I didn't know what to expect but I am happy to go there. The place is c. 5-10 min. from the main square, next to the castle. It is a Victorian house with three floors where in every room there is a story about Robin...More

An enjoyable experience

We visited for the first time today, upon arrival the children were immediately impressed. Robin and Little John were outside the museum with the pillory stocks and they wanted to try those out before we even got inside! Robin and John were lovely and once...More

I’d say give an hour and a half. Our tour was just over an hour when it wasn’t very busy. It’s quite tight in there so if you get a few groups you may have to wait for people. Nice fun way to spend the time though.
