Eden Camp Modern History Museum

Really good day out! Great facilities too, a really big dining area so plenty of space to eat inside and out, grest Cafe and the new toilet block is pristine!
Some really interesting artifacts to see and the sound affects and nostalgic smells really bring it to like ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Excellent experience, great day out for family lots to do and see.
Give yourself a good few hours to have a look around and see what is there.
Parking is easy. Food on available and is very nice.

I have visited the museum on many occasions over the years which is testimony in itself. I usually attend to coincide with 1940's events as the reenactors add an air of authenticity. On this occasion I attended as part of the Ride Of Honour 2022 (hundreds of motorcycles riding in aid of various military charities) which ended at Eden Camp, with a fantastic welcome upon arrival. A great museum lots to see for all ages. Smashing grub especially the chips and gravy.

Wouldn’t go back! I remember visiting here with the school years back and having a good time. I took my two boys here thinking it would be very good and educational…. It wasn’t…. The only part they liked was probably the army vehicles, they was no rooms to have fun in, no interactive elements, everyone just seemed to be walking around bored. The staff member in the gift shop was miserable and had zero patience whilst one of boys picked a souvenir. If they wasn’t a small park inside we’d of left 20 mins earlier. You can’t expect kids to walk in each of the huts and read everything, so I’m struggling to see who the museum is aimed at? If it’s adults then kids should go FREE, if it’s for kids you need to add interactive learning parts to the museum or even have some activities and maybe items or answers they have to find?! Save your money and visit flamingo land next door instead. 👍🏼

Visited here back on 2013, and the attraction has been updated since then. Digital room and definitely a must see when in this area. Visited the shop where we met one of the owners, really lovely to see a family run business who care about the camp.

I haven't been to Eden camp since I was a child and wow it didn't disappoint! We attended as a family with children aged 11 and 9. Even though smaller children were there I do feel it suited older kids, as the information was in its plenty in the different huts. Favourite hut was 'The blitz' the interactive content was brilliant! We had food at the cafe and it was lovely! Fresh and some of it 'homemade', but there is the option to take your own packed lunches. Plenty of parking spaces and it was the school summer holidays. Nice little gift shop. Will definetly be returning and have been recommending to friends and family.

A very interesting place to visit. Lots to do and to take in, really like the way the huts have been converted to show the history of the war and the people who fought in it. The play sections are a good idea and are suitable for all ages.
Food wise there is a good selection of hot and cold snacks and drinks. Try the jam Roly poly and custard! Toilets are well placed and clean and easy to access.
Our boy loved the moving gun and the cars and tanks so much he's asked for some for Christmas! All the huts help tell a story of certain aspects of the war, however some should carry an age warning. The blitz one was very good but some smaller children should possibly swerve this.

Came here with our junior sea cadets a few weeks ago. The museum has some great history and lots to see and learn, the park and games are great the only downside is there needs to be more interactive parts in the museum displays to keep the younger children more enthusiastic and engaged.. it would have been 5 stars but I think that slightly let's it down...for the older children and adults it's a great leaning experience and good day out, admittion prices are fantastic.
