Excellent! Well worth a visit, I underestimated how good it would be. Much larger than I expected with a great variety of things to see. Make sure you have plenty of time, I was there several hours. It really is someone's collection thats gotten out of control which is great to look round. Many areas could have done with better lighting and dusting of display cases to be able to see things better but still great.

It is a great place to visit to see old military vehicles preserved in a great used condition. Also, many items from the WW2 period to support the displays. The roads off the main roads are typical Devon country lanes.

Me and my 2 boys found this by chance. A little hidden away place but it was a place to surprise and wonder. My boys were fascinated by all on display. The displays are set out so well plus there are things to watch or listen to, the makeshift bomb shelter with the sound effects was a real eye opener. They also seem to have arts and crafts days? We didn't get to do that as it wasn't running but that's what it looked like. A little cafe run from a converted van was awesome, lots of things in the shop that certainly aren't like your average shop!

All in all, educational, interesting, doesn't take hours to get around so you can fit something else in before or after.

This place is massive and has so much stuff I don’t think I even saw 50% of it as there are items everywhere you look. The collection is absolutely huge and has something for everyone.

The tanks are something that everyone should see, if not to just appreciate the sheer size of them!!

Attended during a memorabilia event and there was all sorts of items for sale.

Perfect for people of all ages, loads of parking and lovely people.

Can’t wait to go back

Excellent and eccentric collection from military toothbrushes to main battle tanks crammed into every available space. Several hours required to appreciate it all. Snacks and drinks available, and a wide range of militaria for sale to take home.
