Stayed here over a weekend in my campervan, apart from the glorious views from the campsite, I don't think I have ever met such helpful and friendly owners. Will most definitely be back. Full review by Franklinair

We visited as a group and arranged with the owner befor the visit to accommodate a tour for all of us,we were split into two groups,as for a discount we did not ask for one as it is a privately run museum and you need to pay to keep theses facilities alive,a great place and I am sure they could arrange food for you on the day just get in touch with them before you go

The drive itself didn’t take too long, maybe 30-45 minutes. There’s basically a biiig figure 8 course that you’ll go around 3 times or so. There’s no age limit to go in the tank, it has a capacity for at least 10 people inside it while it’s being driven, so it’s great for groups- but there may be an age limit for operating it. I recommend giving them a call, they were extremely helpful over the phone when we had questions. We also emailed, so that’s an option too, but calling was easiest. Just keep in mind any time difference!
Q:
is there enough to do for a 4 year old as my husband will be taking the tank lessons! Thanks
A:
There is a children's play area/playground and covered picnic site on location. There were young children in our party who enjoyed themselves immensely.
