3 Best Places To Visit in Aylesbury Vale, UK

Absolutely fabuous museum!! A true hidden gem!! Being lucky enough to find on street parking outside, we were warmly greeted with knowledgeable staff who directed us to different parts. Wc's were very clean, cafe although we didnt have time to frequent had a nice menu. The museum is in several parts, new, old and prehistoric! I struggled a little to find out what was actually on display before we went. Downstairs and please forgve me for not being more succinct, were two galleries displaying works by one artist, totally brilliant adn an exhibition showingcasing local artists works, before passing into a new area showing fossils, old bones, tusks foudn in the area and dating back to when Buckinghamshire was under water! Following on there was a myriad of coins, pottery, tools, and other finds from ancient time, and mor recent times. The wedding cup was spectacular! A very nice additon to see in detail was some very well kept taxidermy which helps looking out for it on your travels in the area. Brillaint for kids! The next floor were galleries displaying sewing paraphanelia, local works and yet more fabulous bits for kids and then up to to the tudor room! Great access for all, plenty of seats for resting and two lifts!

This is a lovely little museum. We’ve been multiple times and they often have some great on for kids in addition to the regular exhibits. Staff are friendly and you can park a 5 min walk away at the Odeon cinema car park. The Roald Dahl bit next door is great too!

We went to the museum for easter activities and found them very calming esp with young children. On a windy day, we spent almost 4 hours inside the cosy museum, and it is a win for any parent.

Lovely little museum, run by a very knowledgeable gentleman. We visited here with our teenage son. Francis showed us round and shared lots of fascinating facts about the history of the RAF and RAF Halton. You can get up close to everything and also handle certain objects. There is also a separate building with old and new flight simulators which my son could try out. We were given a personal tour of that part by another very helpful and informative gentleman. I would definitely recommend this museum. You have to email in advance to book your visit and then you are met and shown around in your group. A fascinating place. Well worth a visit.

The museum is chocked full with information and artifacts illustrating the legacy of RAF Engineering that Lord Trenchard created when he fought for Halton to be established. If you like the RAF, Engineering, or Military aircraft hardware you should arrange a visit. You wont be disappointed. Entrance is free, but you do need to arrange your visit before hand. Hurry there may only be a few years left.

It's amazing just how much history is packed into this small museum. I didn't have as much time as I would've liked to properly look at everything but I would highly recommend it and would definitely visit again if the opportunity arises.
