This is probably the best interactive WW2 museum that you'll ever find! It's an amazing collection of weaponry, machinery, uniform, and local history, alongside a wealth of knowledge from its staff; It's definitely worth a visit.

We loved this interactive well thought out museum. Feeling the weight of the equipment and artillery really made me appreciate those who fought in the war. The staff were really helpful and knowledgable. We had an excellent experience.

I dont normally enjoy wandering around museums, but this place, wow. A great museum, well worth a visit if you are in the Weymouth area. Most exhibits can be handled and sat in. A great tribute to D Day. Spent 2 hours here taking it all in. £10 well spent and worth the entry fee. Well done.

This place is brilliant! It has great atmosphere, incredible range of vehicles that you get into, a wide range of artifacts, but most importantly it tells individual stories of soldiers involved on D-Day, some of whom didn't make it back. Knowledgeable and helpful volunteers too.

A great place to visit. Only meant to be 10mins but ended 90 mins! Very informative staff who even accompanied me around explaining and talking about it all. Lots of American equipment, including anti aircraft gun, used in Band of Brothers. Definitely will visit again when in Weymouth.PS, might even treat the wife!!Thank you to all the staff, fabulous visit.It's a MUST to visit.

Visited yesterday as a small family and all had a really great time a shame this place is so small as would of stayed on.Fully interactive museum with many vehicles and weapons to get your hands on.Plenty of information and very educational.One young lad (didn’t get his name) was extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the war and spent plenty of time answering questions and providing information.Would 100% recommend to anyone staying in the area, keep up the good work guys!

Wonderful museum exhibiting many items with which to interact. One of the docents, Geoff Freeman, was a great help in guiding us and making our visit an enjoyable experience.
