    Amazing place! Lots of interesting vehicles to see. It’s a lot bigger than expected with some amazing history on vehicle manufacturer in Coventry. Definitely worth a visit.

    What a brilliant place to visit. The volunteers we spoke to... Ruth, Len and Bob were very informative and helpful, taking photos for us. We had such a lovely time.

    We only went to the bombed cathedral, and it was so moving.
    It was very emotional and worth the visit. The view of the old and new cathedrals was amazing.

    This hotel is lovely. Set in the park, it is secluded, quiet and very traditional. We had an excellent one-night stay; delicious full breakfast and the most comfortable king-size bed. The diningroom staff (and the Server in charge) were all welcoming and friendly) We will definitely return next time we visit Coventry.

    What a hidden gem. This quietly understated museum has an amazing collection of aircraft and memorabilia. The highlight of course is the amazing Avro Vulcan, open at times for you to climb in and see what it was like for the crew. We had a great explanation from Roger.
    There is also the most amazing collection of models and many for sale.

    It is great that places like this still exist, I feel it is important we support them. The volunteers are a friendly bunch - stop and look around then have a cuppa with them.

    Had afternoon tea here Sunday lunchtime with my youngest son who treated me to an early mothers day gift. The food was impeccable but the service was awful, soon as we got there we were given our drinks and the afternoon tea came out pretty straightaway, we felt we were rushed and didn't have time to go through the menu. I know it was a very busy Sunday afternoon but we wanted to sit and chat and not have the food basically dumped in our laps and there you go sort of thing.

    We came to see the new wildlife photography exhibition, and it was nice to see Dippy. There is an admission fee for the exhibit but if you have a GoCV membership, this reduces the ticket price by quite a lot.
    Well laid out exhibit, with photographs from the different categories laid out in four separate rooms. Well put together and some amazing, thought provoking pictures.
    The 10 years and under category was the one that stood out for me. Very talented children.

    We enjoyed watching Fascinating Aida here on Thursday, February 22, 2024. It was our inaugural visit to this venue. Helpful staff delivered efficient but friendly service – smiles were in plentiful supply. Seats were comfortable. WCs were spotless – and the same could be said throught the venue. We will recommend this theatre to others.

    First time to Brandon Marsh Nature Reserve and despite it being a quite time for wildlife I saw quite a bit. A Jay, female and male Common Darter Dragonfly, male and female Gadwall ducks, Black-headed Gulls and Mute Swans. A really great walk well worth the visit will definitely go back in the spring.

    What a little gem of a museum. Excellent work by Steve to get all these bits of memorabilia together in one place. My dad introduced me to Bilko and I only wish I could have introduced dad to Steve and his museum. Keep up the good work and I'll pop down again one day.

    Lovely park to walk around, plenty of seats to sit and relax. Great cafe and easy parking all within reach of the city centre.

    I know it’s only a statue of a lady on a horse but it is steeped in local folklore history. I’m glad I visited Broadgate whilst I was in Coventry. Other Towns/Cities have statues in their squares so well done for keeping up traditions.
