Fantastic place made to feel really welcome by Mike and his son. Mike is the font of knowledge when it comes to motorcycles and cars. A fascinating visit if it wasn't for the wife i could have stayed there all day.

One the best museum experiences I have ever had, Mike has a fantastic collection of old motorcycles, if you want new bikes don't go, it's not a clean and shiny place which is part of it's charm, you can even touch the bikes and if you wish you can even have a cuppa and a biscuit, he even has two very friendly retrievers and a collie to welcome you, I can't speak highly enough about the place, if you love old motorbikes and talking about old motorbikes whilst wandering about with a cuppa this is the place for you.

What a great place. Stopped in on our way home to Scotland. Owner has a lifetime of fantastic memories to share. Modestly shared some of his TT racing experiences. This place is jammed pack full of history. You can spend as short or as long a time here as you like. All for a donation. Definitely worth a visit.

Stumbled across this today while driving round in the rain on holiday and what an amazing find!! Mike is so interesting, he is a champion TT racer and can tell you so many stories about everything and kept us entertained for almost 4 hours. My partner was in his element being a motor bike rider and enthusiast.
I loved listening also and the 3 lovely dogs kept me company. On a dry day you can also have the run of his beautiful garden and there’s tea / coffee on tap. All for a £5 donation
Superb find and time we’ll spent
Thanks from Ken & Heather (Lancashire)

Fantastic place and Mike talked us through the story of each of the different bikes he had ranging from as early as the 1920s!
