Reviews of Great British Car Journey
"I have been multiple times since it opened and every time there is something new and different. Very interesting background stories from the interactive electronic tour guide device provided on entry and you can go round at your own pace - listen to as much or as little as you like. The cafe is a great place to have some nice coffee and cake while reflecting on all the cars with your party at the end of the tour (and has some great memorabilia and quality souvenirs) The staff are very friendly and helpful too. A great family day out if you have a generation or 2 in your group - many of the cars have interesting celebrity and movie connections - it's not just for pure car enthusiasts. I took my Mum and she said she found it fascinating. Would recommend and will return again"
"Nice to see a different way of showing cars with an audio tour and lots of info about the cars. It takes you through the ages of British cars ( as you might guess from the name ). I enjoyed it and the cafe food was really good. I’m not sure that this place would appeal to children so much and I did feel that the entry price was expensive for the time we spent in there. I suppose you could spend longer but it depends how deeply you are into the history of British cars. They do also have a thing called Drive dads car, which I really wanted to do but it seems it’s only certain days which didn’t fit in with our holiday."
"If you’re interested in cars than this is very very good. Very friendly staff. Clean toilets. Excellent audio guide. Extensive range of cars all beautifully maintained, restored and cared for. Large cafe and shop on site, was closed when we were there sadly. Looks like a good range of British car themed gifts to buy."
"Great day out looking at some of the cars of old that used to be common on eve streets when we were younger. Some classics that we all yearned for back in the day. Well worth a visit, an audio guide is included in the ticket price and the cafe is reasonably priced and serves food and drinks. Well recommended"
"Wonderful exhibition of British Cars. All cars in good condition. Very clever hand held laptop / audio player loaded with masses of data and stories issued for free on entry, enabling you to investigate in depth any particular car that you are specifically interested in. Older visitors will enjoy seeing again cars that they once owned. Good Cafe for teas, coffees and light meals. Thoroughly enjoyed the day and will definitely visit again."
