    Right, 5 star rating for sure here. What a (as the name suggests) treasure!…read more Firstly, a stunning drive to our destination which always puts you in a good mood (and the baby sat chattering in the back instead of screaming which always helps mummy!) and pulling into a carpark with ample parking which makes us smile was a good start to our day out. When we entered we were greeted by a lovely lady who ushered us through to the museum part. Entry was £8 each for adults, and boo was free as she is under 6. She gave us a map and some information before we entered and then we turned around to the treasure trove within. This is a place that will throw you back into different era's. There is something for everyone ranging from tractors to toys, from clothing to cigarettes. I particularly enjoyed the old alcohol miniatures and paraphernalia, and hubby enjoyed the toys and electronics. There is a massive collection of colourful tractor seats in the last room which is beautiful to see. You can spend hours in front of one cabinet here. The women's hygiene/cleaning products were so fun to see, as was the gorgeous wedding dress donated by a lady who wore it in 1955 (or around then) Collections of many different types of things are on display here (shaving pots, steam engines, tins, signs, tobacco and alcohol stuff, perfume, books etc it just goes on) There is a café attached which we didn't have time to relax in, but it looked lovely. A very small gift shop which I think they could make bigger and have more items for sale, but we got two very humourous postcards and a magnet to take home. I am so glad we came here, boo was enthralled the whole time (only problem she wanted to touch it all haha) Would come again as you would see different things every time.

    Do you ever get the feeling at the weekend that you'd like to do something but you're not sure…read morewhat? You kind of want to see or do something but don't want to spend loads of money. Well perhaps Oakham Treasures is the ticket for you. You will happily be able to spend a few hours on a trip down memory lane here. Relatively new to Bristol opening in 2008 Oakham is a fascinating collection of memorabilia, everything from vintage sweets to huge tractors are on display! It's £6.50 for one adult, or 2 adults and 3 children can get in for just £15! Something for everyone.

    Very interesting (if expensive for £7) look at clothing through the ages. Ranging all the way from…read moremodern shirts and ties through the Victorian ages and even a brief (pun!) display of underwear. (Nothing you couldn't share with a little one.) The Museum is located below the Assembly Rooms and so gets a bit of noise from people walking upstairs. It's also a pretty good echo chamber, so have patience for the kids and the chatterers. Absolutely pick up one of the free self-directed audio tour guides. At most of the costume displays, there is a number on the wall. Key the number into the audio guide and the narrator will point out interesting things you might otherwise miss and worthwhile history. For some of the modern pieces, the actual designer is interviewed. A couple of the displays are interactive (for the kids at least). You can put on a couple of the costumes and if you have a helper can even try on a corset. Very interesting and I'm glad I did it! (No, I didn't have a helper, so no corset.)

    This was so much cooler than I expected! Could have spent a lot more time here, but we had a res…read more Got the dual ticket with our visit to the Baths, and this was an unexpected delight. Learned a lot about the royals and what they wore, and also just what people in general wore, how and why fashion changed. It was much more interesting than I thought it would be, and then you get to walk around some of the assembly rooms! Definitely give it a go.
