Reviews of Bletchley Park Mansion
J. R.What a lovely day we spent here despite the Weather.and didnt get to see everything. So much to see and do. We had a very nice tour guide, an absolute gentleman and what a story teller. He had us all mesmerized.. All staff very friendly and welcoming. Obviously all enjoyed their jobs. Will definitely come back again. So well kept and well presented. We just ran out of time. 10 out of 10
C. S.Very enjoyable day. We took the tour which is well worth going on. I would think its better to visit when the weather is good as there is alot of walking between attractions. We sat in the picnic area near the front gate, it was lovely with a view of the house over the lake. It is worth at least one visit. We plan to go back soon.
G. F.Quality attraction. Very good day out. They had a 40's music trio in the park and they were very good. The food and drinks on offer may be at the pricier end but the quality is good so you don't mind the price. We enjoyed the day and didn't get round it all so you may need to start when it opens, we went for 11.30 as the music was due to start at 12.15. There are guided tours included in the entrance price, well worth it. Would recommend.
M. M.Wonderful experience.
So much information available.
Well organised. People were friendly and ready to help.
Well kept grounds. There is so much to see it would be wise to go more than once.
The tea room was beautiful, clean. Service was
fantastic and the food was a wonderful experience.
R. w.So much to learn, well set out lots of interactive areas, staff were only to pleased to give you as much information as possible . The ticket is an annual pass so you can return as much as you wish free for a year. Absolutely spotless & plenty of hand cleaning available well done all. 😀👏
J. J.Brilliant historical museum run by fantastic volunteers who are knowledgeable, friendly and often quite funny. The website said the museum takes 2 - 3 hours but it's more like 1.5 days if you really want to get the best out of it. Even if you're not particularly interested in the history of Bletchley, the mansion is beautiful and overlooks a large pond which is nice just to sit by and relax. Well worth the money (would have happily paid double the price in all honesty). The only negative point I have is the audio tour isn't very good, it's much better to follow and speak to the guides there.
N. C.Our heritage. Open for all to see. To our surprise, we spent four hours exploring. Absolutely fascinating. Great day out. Food, drink and live band playing on the lawn in front of the mansion.
Was well worth the money.
Heros each and every person that contributed here.
P. C.There is such an incredible history at this place. Incredible sacrifice, hard work and commitment from the amazing codebreakers who were instrumental in our victory in WW2. I was moved. There is so much to take on board I will definitely return because I couldn't absorb it all in one visit
A. C.Great place for a morning/afternoon out. Lovely buildings and landscape. Pricing a little high (entry, food, drink etc) but still a
Great venue.
M.Amazing place, steeped in history, with modern touches and media experiences
D. G.Bletchley Park Mansion is a beautiful 18th century mansion to visit. The main building is a part of the larger Bletchley Park, which is a wonderful day out for families and anyone with an interest in codebreaking WW2, or the history of computing.
The mansion has a few exhibits which show what it looked like when it was a base for the codebreakers.
Staff were extremely helpful and could answer any questions we had confidently.
The lake to the front of the property is serene and is a very easy walk to take in the peaceful surroundings.
A. P.Was great to visit and learn all about the codebreakers and this beautiful place however not alot was interactive (covid possibly 🤷) it was mainly just written boards everywhere, which is fine for us but my child (13yo) got board after 2 hours with "all the reading" 🤣🙈 Although my son absolutely loved the radio shack and chatting to the lovely guy inside the entrance and then the 2 lovely chaps who explained how everything worked with the short wave and long wave radio..,.so much so, he bought himself a book in shop all about it. Also the ticket is a return anytime but to be honest we wouldn't return as we have seen it all now and read everything. The gardens are nice as is the lake/pond but for the grounds its not very big & we walked it all in less than 30 mins.
D. D.Fascinating place with an impressive story to tell. Especially interesting for parents wanting to promote STEM subjects. Lots of interactivity, and I love the vibe of the huts - full of desks that look as if their occupants had just popped out for 5 minutes.
T. S.Wanted to visit here for a long time and wasn't disappointed. The era captured, the atmosphere, the artefacts, the information, the secrets, just incredible.
A. L.Such a facinating place. Having watched several films around the enigma machine and code breaking we finally got to visit. Booking was easy on the website giving us a timed entry. On arrival we got a warm welcome from the gate house and directed to the free parking. Entering through the main building tickets were checked and a map provided. The visit was well signed with a good one way system. Guides managed entry into each building to manage social distancing. All very covid safe with compulsory mask wearing and hand sanitizer available. Each hut/building tells the story of a particular aspects of codebreaking and links it into how it affected WW11. Lots of information with photos throughout with some stage setting, you may need to appriciate as a top secret organisation a lot of documentation and resource's were distroyed after the war. All staff we met were knowledgeable and happy to chat and answer any questions. On site there's a good cafe selling meals and snacks and an outside kiosk. Plenty of toilets also around the site. Lots of space for picnics with tables, benches and deck chairs. We did see a play area for children. A great day but may take a couple of visits to take it all in. On exit there's the site shop selling a good range of momentos. The site is mainly flat and has good wheelchair access.
P. W.An amazing place, pay once return as many times as you like. This was are first visit so much info and things to do watch and touch.... see you again soon
S. P.Lovely museum with beautiful gardens. The staff were all really lovely people. Amazing variety of exhibits. Tones of free parking and a cute little cafe
E. L.I am not a stupid person but by the end of our visit to Bletchley Park I felt like a window-licking idiot.
What these men and women achieved in this place is truly amazing and you really get to feel the atmosphere due to the preservation of the sheds and other buildings.
Not an inexpensive day out but very worthwhile.
To those that worked at Bletchley Park, I thank you for your service; you saved thousands of lives and helped end WW2 earlier than would have been without you.
A. W.Lots of information to digest. Good clear map given on arrival. Exhibition is well laid out with lots of reading and equipment to view.
Need to allow at least 4 hours to see it all.
Thought cakes were very over priced. £5 for a slice of a Victoria sponge or a smallish sausage roll and £3 for a muffin I thought was excessive. Suggest a picnic.
Well worth a visit
D. M.So much history in one place. Wish I got there earlier so to absorb everything better
G. C.Been meaning to take the family here for years. Despite the rain, what a great day - if you haven't been, just go
R. B.Fantastic experience of the WW2 Code breaking site - the guides around the site were very knowledgeable - could be improved with more items from that era i.e. Mansion Snooker Room needs a Snooker Table for full effect - plus more military things must have been a high security place - definitely recommend well worth the entrance fee
P.Very interesting to see this place which played such an important and vital part in shortening WW2.
p. d.Very interesting place ,a lot to take in in 1 day,staff were excellent and very helpful,cafe in the old hut was very reasonable
J. S.SO much to see! Fascinating and atmospheric. Will visit again.
J. R.Very interesting. Friendly helpfull staff
L. N.Excellent experience even in the dodgy weather. Very informative and definitely worth allowing sufficient time to explore the exhibitions
J. R.Excellent day out, with lots of very interesting, informative things to see. Such respect for those who worked here.
A. M. D.What a great place, full of history and interesting facts!!
We went there to see Santa and it was great. Our kids got wooden presents and they were very pleased as they dislike plastic
P. C.A beautiful Mansion, the huts not so much, but the contents really interesting and well displayed. The voice guide was interesting too, but could do with directing the listener to the central most interesting parts, perhaps with a quick tour, an essential tour, and a full tour giving approximate times for each. Wheelchairs are welcome.
A. L.This is in the grounds of Bletchley park where the codebreaking was done
I have written a separate review about Bletchley Park
The cost of the entrance fee allows you to go into the mansion
Good exhibits and grounds all around
Guides are good and plenty of things to read and interactive stuff too
It is about a 5 minute walk to Bletchley station (probably quicker to get there than to the car park!!)
A. M.This was one of the best days out we'd ever had, thoroughly enjoyed it. We went when reopening after lockdown and their system was spot on, it wasn't crowded, you could stop read, have a good look at everything and didn't feel like you were rushed or no one was on top of the other to have a look at something, all the guides are volunteer's and you can tell they love doing this. The guy filling the hand sanitizer and cleaning the grounds was very cheerful and took pride in keeping the place clean and everyone safe. Lots of space to have a picnic with tables and deck chairs laid out, there is a hut to get refreshments from but a can of pop and a water coming on at just under £6 was expensive, although as you walk in there a mobile coffee stand, best latte Ive had, that was reasonable. 5 star day out!
D. C.Not really sure why this has appeared on my time line? I visited Bletchley Park and the mansion is one building within the grounds of the park. It's not really a separate location unless you're attending an event? As part of the museum there are a number of interesting elements to the mansion as it contains the rooms used by the senior officers. It also house much historic information about the ownership of the property, but all in the context of the overall museum. The site as a whole is of immense historic interest and should be high on any list of museum visits. The mansion is just a part of that.
C. H.Fantastic visit thanks to wonderful, helpful staff who made us feel we are back a few decades with their politeness. The mansion and grounds are very well kept and layed out for ease of the visitor for which there were a lot on our visit. We learnt a lot about the work done here during wartime concerning breaking of the enigma codes, it seems the staff involved were truly magnificent. Can highly recommend visiting BP as it will indeed be time very well spent and you will come back highly enlightened!
G. H.The house and it's elaborate architecture proved to be very fascinating. Rooms also contained a variety of artifacts, which are well displayed and labelled. The collection helps to convey the importance of the work carried out here and the contributions made by so many people.
I. H.What a fantastic historical place. Everybody should visit the place where so many clever people helped shorten the second world war. Also very good value as the tickets are valid for a year.
M. R.Visited on a rainy autumnal Sunday which added to the atmosphere. A really interesting place which is full of ww2 history. The food and drink offering near the mansion is spot on too, along with the gift shop. We will return.
J. W.Amazing place to visit. The mansion had a number of exhibits reflecting its 2nd World War history as well as the amazing people who worked there. Felt very safe as the tour was run extremely well with frequent hand sanitizer stations and limited numbers. Afternoon tea was lovely too.
R. F.Great place the effort and work these people did to save our country is crazy. If only the same effort was here today!
M. S.Looks fantastic, as a building but also as a museum of what happened at Bletchley Park.
l. b.This place was awesome and you cant help but feel emotional at the total authenticity.
J. M.After watching the film The Imitation Game during lockdown I was determined to visit the place and learn more, see that Bombe machine, understand a little of code breaking etc..Awesome day visiting an awesome place
J. B.Brilliant day out.. kept us very busy. Informative. Loved it. Out tickets last for 12 months so we can go back. Had lunch in hut 4. This was lovely and our drinks came in tin mugs. A very nice touch. Everyone was very helpful. We use the audio guide and found it very informative and gave us a great tour. Highly recommend.
M.fantastic day out. The huts especially captured the essence of what it would have been like to have worked there during the war. really informative. The staff seem to be really friendly and Informative. Even the kids loved it.
I. S.A great tribute and historical museum, giving credit to unprecedented technical achievements, creating world leading birth of computers, with WWII code cracking that won the War. The incredible technology developed in this Best kept War secret. It confirmed Britain's unique, unrivalled intellectual capabilities. I also consider this technology as the practical development and proved application of AI, which only currently and belatedly is the raving 'discovery' - artificial intelligence, by some!?
S. m.Great day out for most of the family and having live music and food trucks on site over the summer was a great touch. Can't recommend it enough. Will be going back again. The only thing that didn't work to well for me was, being a diabetic, there wasn't enough drink options for me on site but this was only a small thing.
N. M.Obviously Bletchley Park is steeped in history and very informative. We had afternoon tea at the Mansion house, this was beautiful, mismatched china set on real tablecloths. A very fresh selection of sandwiches and sweet delights, highly recommend a visit along with the afternoon tea. You will be catapulted back in time, learn about the brave men and woman who helped win the war and enable us the freedom we all enjoy today.
F. D.Amazing history behind WW2 Need to get there early as so much to see tickets are yearly admission and can go back many times in the year and very interesting 😀
A. I.Beautiful piece of history! A lot of green space, plenty of benches and chairs to eat a sandwich or drink a coffee. The immersive exhibitions were very interesting as well as the architecture of the mansion. A really nice place to visit and relax on a sunny day!
P. M.An important historic site shows off the incredible pioneering work of the code breakers. Huge numbers of dedicated people have worked many hours to preserve it for posterity. The multimedia exhibits are excellent.
My only gripe might be that it's a little too clean and tidy for what would have been a busy hive of activity.
Free visitor parking. Food in cafes a bit pricey.
A.Super interesting. Really thought provoking.
The video tour is free and very good so make sure to pick up a handset.
Would have been a 5 except they don't seem to have the actual machines on display anymore which is a real shame.
G. M.Second visit with our concession tickets, and we'll be back again. So much to see and absorb from the history, people and events around this fascinating place.
C. L.Bowled over by the place. So much history in those huts! What I really, really loved most was the enthusiasm of ALL the staff & volunteers. Genuinely taken aback by the warmness of the welcome and their insatiable quest to impart their knowledge with us. Still can't believe it, beautiful really beautiful. 😍
R. W.Part of the Bletchley Park museum, this building is at complete odds with the utilitarian nature of the rest of the site. Definitely not to be missed as part of the visit.
M. L.An excellent visit, with a both informative and entertaining tour followed by a general meander around the site. All topped off with an tasty lunch and to find out that once you have bought your ticket, it's valid for 12 months!
s. w.Fascinating place. One day just not enough time.
Just as well entrance ticket valid for 12 months.
Went on guided one hour long tour.
Guide was very knowledgeable and kept it entertaining. The hour just flew by.
M.Absolutely amazing. Highly recommend the guided tour. Staff were helpful and friendly. Thought £5 for a sausage roll or £2 for a small water was a bit excessive, but then I am a Northerner so not used to these prices . Going back again tomorrow as didnt get to see everything. Was as good as I was hoping it was going to be.
p. a.A Tribute to the people who worked on this site as the codebreakers the mansion is just how I expected lots to read good guide information well kept well worth a look great feel to the place.
J. D.Fantastic day out (perhaps not for younger children though 😉). We had 4 hours here and that wasn’t enough. Luckily, the tickets have a 12 month expiry and so a further visit will be possible. Food and drinks are expensive so I’d recommend taking a picnic but overall a great day out and fascinating experience. Fully recommend a visit.
A. K.Had this on my bucket list for a long while. Finally made it. Steeped in history, a brilliant story of the attitude that makes our country what it is. Spent 4hrs there. Only 4 stars cus I have to go back again and visit the rest. Fortunately your ticket gives you 12 month access. If history interests you at all, absolutely must be on your list.
C. A.Glimpses of history. So we'll kept and very interesting
K. I.Lots of information to take on board. Very entertaining. Allow plenty of time if you want to see it all.
A. D.If you are interested in the code breakers during the war then this is the place to go. A good day out. Afternoon tea served in the house but also other places to eat. Lovely grounds with a large lake. Guided walks available again. Ticket valid for whole year. Can highly reccomend.
J.Incredible place! Lake in the centre is beautiful and the individual huts have been recreated to look as they once would have looked in the 1940s. Alan Turing section of the museum is poignant with the pardon letter from Gordon Brown on the wall. Videos, pictures, actual artefacts and recreated elements all help to bring the work alive and the volunteers and staff were all fabulously helpful. A truly worthwhile day out.
P. W.We've visited twice on successive weekends. Your ticket is valid for the whole year and there is so much to see that it's well worth coming back again.
My daughter and I visited a couple of years ago and she's been asking to go back. Now that lockdown is lifted it was a good opportunity to go. She is almost 11, and while she doesn't appreciate all the fine details of the war and the mathematics of codebreaking (who does) there is plenty to keep both of us interested.
The story of Bletchley Park is well known, but there is a real sense of history to be had from standing in Alan Turing's office, in the hut with a working bombe, or by Dilly Knox's office where Enigma was first broken. All brought to life by superb displays and information and enough interactive exhibits to keep a 10 year old happy (with ice creams on the deck chairs overlooking the lake).
Well done to Bletchley Park for preserving an amazing part of our history and bringing it to life. All the guides are friendly and helpful and the covid safety measures don't get in the way of a fascinating day out.
L. G.Not been here for 20 years. Big changes for the better. Wonderful experience
A.A very interesting and enjoyable visit with so much to see but suggest taking a packed lunch as food and drink is very expensive there and they have lovely outdoor areas with picnic benches where you can eat. I paid £2 for a small bottle of still water. We were there for 4 hours so well worth the money we paid for entry. Be prepared to queue on entry. Even though we had booked online and had a print out you still have to queue behind people who are paying on the day. They maybe need to think about fast tracking those who pay in advance.
A. H.I really enjoyed Bletchley Park and found it very interesting. However I think it would be even better if they added more social history. It would have been interesting to know more about the every day lives of the people who worked at Bletchley.
P. T.An absolutely amazing place. Was treated to a surprise visit here for my 60th. The place is so utterly humbling and you can just feel the atmosphere here. This is undoubtedly a very special historical place once staffed by some of the country's brightest people in total secrecy during WWII. We owe them all so much!
B. &. J. D.Stunning, thought provoking, informative and emotional.
A place we feel you could visit time and time again, vstill gaining more understanding of the sheer brilliance, utter secret, dedication and effect the work, both as a team and as brillant individuals, at Bletchley Park had upon the war and the modern world as we know it!
L. C.Very efficient. Staff helpful, courteous and polite at all times. The room was quite spacious and very clean. The meal at night was OK as was the breakfast. All round a very pleading experience
S. D. M.A lovely day out for all the family, but allow plenty of time as there is so very much to see and learn about. Very detailed rooms , exhibits and films to keep you entertained.
A. L.I'm a bit of a history nut and am fascinated with that era, so I really enjoyed my day here and if you read everything like I do, it definitely is a day. Well worth a visit.
T. S.Lots of personal stories and problems to solve for the kids. An amazing place with a lot to see and read. Definitely a day trip as we didn't have long enough to take it all in.
W. R.If you like secret codes/puzzles/WWII 'away from the direct action' stories, then this experience comes highly recommended. It is necessary to book in advance. Half hourly arrival time slots are offered. The price seemed high (£21 per full adult ticket) until we discovered (when we checked in on the day) that that entitled you to free entry for 12 months. This will be necessary, we discovered. There is so much to see and take in that it warrants revisits to appreciate everything.
We booked for a 10:30am arrival and stayed until around 12:45. During this time we had explored the initial display in the entrance hall, the Hut C exhibition, the Mansion (main house), and the lake garden. There was so much more left to explore that we had to miss out.
I would recommend picking up a free audio/video guide, it was very useful to precis the information from the exhibits and to reinforce the key information. It was fun and interactive too, which was great.
Young children, and/people who need brief easy to digest displays will potentially find it a grueling/boring visit. However, it comes highly recommended if you would like fascinating details and insight about complicated machines and the process of inventing and creating them, and the business of breaking cyphers and codes.
The staff are very friendly and approachable, and give a brief explanation of the exhibit you are about to enter.
N. B.The only downside was in the cafe by the side of the mansion the tables were never wiped down the food was good but overpriced. In view of the price of the food amazing that such a basic hygiene essential was ignored
S. W.A really interesting insight to the codebreakers of WWII. Staff are freindly and helpful. Had a great day despite the weather.
J. H.Well worth a visit. It brings the past to life
T. D.I can't think of a better way to present the historic events that occurred at Bletchley Park. The staff are friendly and helpful. The place has been beautifully kept.
L. B.Fabulous history, lovely relaxing surroundings. Covid precautions in place, plenty of sanitizer, quite strict enforcing social distancing but still no queues to see various huts with their exhibits. Staff very helpful.
C. G.Such an amazing house. The wood panelled rooms are beautiful & the part it played in cracking the enigma code is truly brilliant. The whole Bletchley park is an experiance not to miss.
R. L.Wonderful place to visit, too much to see in just one day. I first went here 10 years ago and the place has changed so much having been updated and modernised.
B. P.Can be a lot of reading and can be busy
c. r.Lovely place to visit very interesting will come back. Was a bit busy but I think that was due to children being on half term.
A. Z.Really disappointing place considering the tickets are so expensive. Good cafe. The colossus and Bombe computers are not there, you need to go to the National Computer Museum 5 minutes walk up the road to see it but there are no signs to tell you that. There is an extra charge of £3 to see them.
R. G.The buildings have been transformed into a varied and interactive museum which tells the story of code breaking beyond, but of course including, Alan Turing and Enigma. The character of the buildings and the many people that worked there are brought to life.
M. B.An excellent visit, so very interesting and the staff were knowledgeable and polite. A rich source of history on how Europe won World War 2.
A. R.Comfortable, standard hotel with working aircon and nice staff. Loses a star because common areas smelt terrible (i think heat + covid level cleaning product = bad)
R. M.Brilliant look into secrets from the past
L. L.Fantastic had a Lovely day with my sister & Niece today thoroughly recommended a day out there.very informative Amazing what these people done to give us Life today.🥰
W. M.Great building and well worth the visit to the whole park.
J. F.Well organised in light of Covid. Very interesting venue with tons of history
S. M.Very interesting place to visit. Only down side was the prices in the cafe. £2 for a can of Cola and £5+ for a baguette is extortionate.
e.Brilliant place to visit .incredibly interesting and also very humbling.
Highly recommended.
H. T.Brilliantly preserved historic manor.
Plenty of information about what was done there.
A good day out for families.
i. c.Very interesting day out. Allow yourself a few hours to enjoy the sights and history of it all.
S. C.Fantastic place to visit, tons of information to read & look at. It definitely needs more than one visit, because of the amount of information to take in. A very clever place with very very clever people that worked there during the world war.
O. L.One of the best museums I've ever visit. I'm totally coming back!
B. R.LOOKS IMPRESSIVE FROM THE OUTSIDE WHAT AN MAJESTIC BUILDING I WOULD HAVE LIKED TO GO INSIDE I SHOULD THINK IT WOULD BE JUST AS GRAND AS IT IMPRESSIVE ON THE INSIDE.
DECENTLY WORTH A SECOND VISIT.
B ROSENBORG 🇩🇰🇬🇧
L.Amazing place to visit and get swept into the world of the codebreakers. Hut 8 has on display the governments apology for the treatment of Alan Turing.
N. R.Fantastic visit for the whole family. The audio tour is a must and the D-Day film was very good. Couldn't recommend BP highly enough
J. M.The Mansion is lovely. We had booked afternoon tea, one gluten & dairy free for me, ordinary one for my hubbie.
Great to be able to have Oat milk, but the choice of sandwiches for me disappointing on the filling front. But, the staff were most attentive & did a great job. I would suggest though that a separate plate & another knife would be appropriate after the sandwiches, we don't really want the same ones we used for the sandwiches do we, a knife & plate with pesto on it, doesn't sit well with jam & a scone now does it !
g. h.Fantastic,to think the work that went on there during the war was mind blowing.Everyone who can should visit.
L. M.Absolutely brilliant if somewhat mind boggling. Would recommend to everyone.
Staff so pleasant and helpful. Lots to see and a fair amount of interactive stations.
Will definitely be attending again.
J. B.Historically and scientifically very interesting and educational. A lot to see and enjoy. Set in lovely grounds, with a play area for children. A nice restaurant although drinks were expensive.
J. C.The staff were very helpful and friendly.
The cafe food next to the mansion was affordable and delicious.
R. H.Interesting good visit but got no need to go twice.
M. S.The displays, the history of the place, the part it played in helping the war effort was so well illustrated. I especially liked the personal stories of people who served there.
B. P.The audioguides were good. We were given time to really look and absorb what happened. The exhibits were well laid out. As a wheelchair user, it was easy to get around
N. T.Very interesting, a lot to take in. Quite expensive gift shop, but it is an experience I would 100% recommend
c.Very friendly staff and guides. The big thing that let this star rating down was the repetitive information and poorly executed walkthrough. The very first exhibit in the first building was really good - it built a great atmosphere and made you excited to go and learn more. When following the suggested route, even with the audio guides, the chronology was very disjointed and after an hour or so you realise you are hearing the same information again but told from a slightly different angle. It was as though each section of Bletchley was given its own chance to tell their story of the enigma and nobody oversaw this to ensure it wasnt just the same information told ten times. It left us feeling slightly confused unfortunately
D. W. (.Very interesting place to visit. Interactive activities to keep inquisitive teens interested. Lots of open space to sit for a picnic as well as indoor cafés.
z. j.Amazing. Just amazing, being an IT & computing student i loved every bit of this especially the code breaking side of it. Hours of interesting things to see here. Will go again.
P. B.Excellent historical document, a must for All Brits to see, and majestic grounds with lots to see and do too!!!! Very Impressive and The Sun came out😁
M. G. S.Very well maintained place of history. Perfect setting to understand how those incredibly people who helped shortened World War 2 lived, who they were, where they came from, what they achieved for us all.
c. m.Had a lovely time there not enough time to see everything. Will go back
A. N.Great day out. Incredibly interesting and a reminder of the bravery and brilliance of those who were involved
e. m.The volunteers are really clever and helpful. The food is great especially the red velvet cake. I always have a good day at Bletchley park.
T. D.A very interesting place, full of history.. plenty to see. Spend the whole day here quite easily.
R. U.Great day out. Plenty to see and do for all the family.
T. C.Really interesting place to visit. So much to see and learnt a lot. Barely touched the surface. Cream tea was lovely too.
N. “. N. T.Really interesting and educational. Gardens also very pleasant. They have a number of really rare Enigma machines
M. M.Great visit, weather helped, staff friendly and good knowledge. Food was a ridiculous price, sorry to say, enjoyed our visit, plenty of seats around the grounds, for picnic 😀😄
M. T.A full day out and incredibly informative and interesting well worth a visit
P. A.Well worth the visit. Loads of space for kids. Plenty to see. Catering very good.
V. J.Much smaller than I expected but lovely
A. D.What a wonderful experience. So interesting and so well presented. Very enjoyable.
P. H.Such a beautiful building, must have been a joy to live in. Our high tea was so nicely presented and plentiful.
C. L.Amazing place to visit, the grounds are beautiful just to walk around. The whole place is steeped in history and it's a well presented exhibit with lots of additional facts and videos with the handheld guide you are given. Can easily spend 5+ hours and can even return within the year all for the ticket price. Highly recommended!
L. F.Couldn't fault the exhibition's but it was let down by the limited range and price of food. Individual cans of drink were £3.25 and a bottle of water was £2.
A. M.Brilliant day out. Fascinating place. Will go again soon
S. A.Gorgeous, lots of history! Would recommend spending a whole day here. Take in all the amazing knowledge this mansion has to offer.
z. m.So interesting! We spent a few hours looking around and we have tickets to go back at any time in the year so we will definitely be visiting again!
S. W.Good few hours walking round the exhibits and having lunch, couldn't help feeling we missed some of it though as no real flow
Enjoyed the experience
M. P.Great place to visit but you need a full day or even two days to see it all.
M. B.If you are interested in the codebreaking team and the beginning of the computer age, there is more information than you can possibly take in on one visit. Luckily your entry ticket covers you for a year.
S. W.You will need a full day here. Very impressed with all the historic information and very well set out. Its a must for a visit to understand how this place and people helped win the war.
D. B.Found it very interesting and informative. Didn't realise how important this place was in winning the war.
P. W.Awesome! We spent 6 hours there. Don't miss the exhibition on what homing pigeons did in the war.
S. V.Interesting place spent 2 half days here
And found ir easy to get about with. My wife who is a wheelchair user.
Hax a nice afternoon tea in the main house but you do need to pre book

M. E.Very well presented exhibits,knowledgable friendly staff and great facilities. A very full and enjoyable day out
B. o.Really fascinating to see the birthplace of the computer... who knew?!!! I have read many things about this operation at Bletchley, and I was happily surprised to discover things that I did not come across online.
d. b.Deeply moving and thought provoking. Seven hours passed in a blinking of an eye and I still didn't see it all. The staff are wonderful. I will go back as my ticket is valid for one year from purchase.
J. H.A fantastic day out for all the family. The mansion itself is very beautiful and the centrepiece of the park itself!
K. N.Lovely place, well looked after. The information and exhibitions are well presented and help to make easy hard to understand concepts. The interactive activities and events make it a very enjoyable visit and the time flies by.
K. P.Fabulous day out, need the whole day as there is so much to see!
S. G.So interesting and loads to see, we couldn't do it all in the afternoon, but the tickets last for a year. Great history lesson.
D. F.Very interesting and good day out, recommended.
D. P.Home of the second world War codebreakers, very informative,good staffing, felt very humble, good on site canteen, a visit to remember, owe a huge debt to the men and women who worked there.
k. b.Lovely place almost serene atmosphere very relaxed and great cafe
A. B.Always an amazing experience but this time with the mini concert by Fiona Harrison, A voice in a million, enhanced our visit. She is such a professional and perfectly suits Bletchley Park.
J. E.Very interesting to see how people has to work decoding during the war
R. P.Excellent, all part of our visit to Bletchley Park, fascinating local history.
C. C.Fascinating exhibition, spoilt only by some aspects which were missing about Turing's life.
w. s.Did not know that this place helped our families to win the war
Well worth a visit the ticket last you for a year as so much to see and find out
We will be back
R. C.Fascinating place, lovely helpful guides.
S. M.Lovely place full of informative guides and exhibits. Due to Covid you need to book to visit, but when you get there it is very well controlled. Pump dispenser for hand gel all around the site and on every entrance to a hut /building. Alot of exhibits that would be hands on and touching to interact have been removed but due to covid you would expect this.
S. H.So much to see, and so interesting - pleased we can visit multiple times in a year cos way too much to take in on one visit. Very nice food and drinks,not cheap but I would say worth it, try their sausage roll as a snack and maybe the thyme roasted chicken for lunch
T. H.Fascinating history, easy to follow and understand. Very enjoyable afternoon tea with fizz.
D. P.Absolutely amazing place to visit, lots to see, a day isn't enough to fit it all in!
P. N.So much more than an 1880s house with a bit of a story. Everyone should visit at least once.
You'll be back.
S. G.It was a little crowded considering we were given timed visits. Not all visitors wore masks even though asked. Plenty of consideration given to those who couldn't wear masks for various reasons, such as Brain Damage etc. 21/2 recommended time for visit. Take snacks most Food outlets closed due to Covid 19. Happy for you to eat you own meals in normal circumstances.
j.Absolutely fantastic! Tickets last a whole year and it is unique in that it is one of the only "museum" locations that are about computing and maths. Great interactivity for small children.
A. B.If you've watched the imitation game and loved the film its highly recommended to vist the mansion. Some of the clips you see in the film, are filmed in this mansion. You can't go to bletchley park without visiting the mansion as well.
R. C.Fascinating and historic location. If you know something of the history before you visit you will get more out of it.
M. C.Fantastic day out, and a privilege to be able to see this place. The abilities of the men and women who worked here are truly astonishing. The tickets are valid for a year, so we will be back. They have done a great job of keeping it all covid-safe.
W. P.Very interesting and a great place to visit.
A. H.Very interesting and the ticket lasts a year. We will be going back to learn more.
M. S.Fantastic experience, very informative
N. M.A fantastic place to visit. You can spend hours here finding out all about what happened at Bletchley Park during the Second World War. I would thoroughly recommend it. One recommendation is be prepared to spend a long time here as there is so much to see. To help with this your ticket lasts a year so you can return to see more.
R. P.A brilliant insight into the world of code-breaking during the 2nd World War. Plenty of interactive exhibits, and a mind-boggling view of the behind-the-lines battle for secrecy and understanding of the enemy and their communications. A great way to spend the day, left me feeling very much in awe of the men & women who undertook this enormously difficult task.
S. M.Tough one to review. Visited on one of the first days following lock down due to Covid19. Lots of areas not open - yet same entrance fee.
My (9 year old) daughter liked it.
I thought that for a museum to educate and entertain a 9 year old, Milton Keynes museum does a better job.
Still, a pleasant time to be had here.
m. f.Good place to visit you need plenty of time to get to see everything
p.Lovely looking building to enjoy as part of the Code Breakers experience.
T. M.Very interesting kept us busy for hours lovely grounds for a picnic
J. S.Great place to learn about the history of the Country and what the workers had to do here in order to win the War.
R. G.Great experience and so informative. Best organised exhibit I've attended.
C. G.Stunning and the lady at the door was incredible x
V. W.Fascinating and informative. Learned a lot! Some queues to get into different huts etc but everyone waited patiently and observed social distancing. Well organised, clear displays and very helpful staff. Ticket valid for one year.
A. R.A fascinating historic landmark that's delivers stories of Code breaking and secret intelligence during World War II
M.Very cosy place. Amazed to learn that 9000 people lived around here
k. C.Absolutely love this place it never disappoints
C. L.Very interesting day plenty of facilites great set of staff helpful interesting to listen and polite deserve excellent report
T. H.So interesting, a terrific tribute to those great people- the unsung heroes that they were. Parking was easy, allow plenty of time as although we did stop for a quick lunch of soup and a roll, we actually ran out of time and had spent 6hrs reading and learning about all that Bletchley park did for us. A great reminder. Also the ticket gives a year of access, so will definitely be coming back.
s. p.Great place to visit.. a place you should never miss
A. Y.Amazing history, fantastic day out and the tickets are valid for a year. Great to see my hero's place of work and the amazing things they accomplished. Highly recommend.
S. S.Brilliant day out
A. H.Great time, spent all day there and learnt allot. Having a ticket were you can return within 12 months was an added bonus. I will certainly do that as it was too much information to taken at once.
S. D.Absolutely fascinating! Beautiful building, look up at the ceilings!! Full of the most interesting, poignant history. As I sat outside waiting for the fella I met the wonderful Walter who volunteers in the mansion, we had a lovely chat and he gave me lots of advice on what to see next ! Hes an absolute treasure! Will definitely be back to use our season tickets... many times!!! Everyone should go!
J. P.Great experience lot of information fantastic day out
J. G.Amazing place and with a real sense of history. Felt as if I was back in WW2 all around the site. Staff are really helpful and knowledgeable. A great day out. In fact we've been twice and planning another visit. You can't take it all in in one visit.
J. P.Accessible with a Bletchley Park ticket only, yet still so much inside here to read and do, explaining the lives of all involved during its historic significance. Seems like only select parts of the mansion are available to explore and as a good stop as part of your day at Bletchley. There is a display of classic and war vehicles behind the main house and rather nice tea room too.
N. N.We had such a lovely time an amazing place, you learn so much at any ages
S. W.So so fascinating! I've wanted to visit for years
T. P.What a nice place. Very informative but with a subject as complex as enigma, there is only so much simplification you can do. They do a very good job.
The audio guide is very involved but you might prefer your own headphones, although those supplied are reasonable
Covid caused some heavy queueing but if you can pick the buildings you go to and find the one with the best queue you will do well. I.e.. choose the shortest.
It would be better without covid restriction but ho hum.
We stayed from 1pm to when they shut at 5 and still didn't get to all of it.
E. D.Excellent, informative. A lot of walking to the various huts and building. We'll worth a visit for adults, but not sure it would keep children occupied or their attention span.
K. A.It is great place to visit. If you have walking difficulties book a wheelchair that they have available. Just a warning that old buildings are not wheelchair friendly but COVID pathways through some of the buildings are even worse. Such as hut 8. 270degree turns in narrow corridors.
However beside that it is a great place to visit and well worth making a day out.
We lost knowledge when the codebreakers shut up shop at the end of the war. We still don't know all the processes they did to break codes.
Cafe does a great range of dietary restriction options along with vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free.
I. M.Parking and entry arrangements well organised. Initial rooms had too much information which causes crowding as people read all the fascinating information. There is repetition of this information several tmes in each of the visitor areas. I think too many people were allowed in as there was long queues for each building. Absolutely brilliant place that will be much better experience when covid restrictions are a memory.
M. D.We had A great day it is absolutely beautiful really need more then one day 2 C it all will come back later in the year or 2022
D. W.This is a national treasure to behold detailing the history of intelligence and the codebreaking in WWII. There is an array of informative displays detailing this and friendly and supportive staff along the way
R. H.A full days pleasent education. Not suitable for young children even though there is normally a play area. The grounds and cafe facilities are excellent. Well worth a day out.
S.Such history and remarkable stories of innovation and overcoming adversity.
N. P.Very interesting. Well laid out. Good space for picnics. Very friendly staff.
B. R.Beautiful and inspirational. Everyone should visit; I've been there many times and always love it - I always learn something new, too, because there's just so much there! Amazing place!
A. B.Found everything so interesting. Ended up staying all day, there was so much to see.
M. L.Great day out, lots of interactive stuff for the kids to do.
L. A.An amazing place to visit so interesting
W. R.Great place to go with the family. Very well presented and the code breaker trail for the kids works really well. I'm still left mind blown by what was achieved at Bletchley Park!
S. 7. S.Fantastic for the people to find out just a few of the very secret works carried out at the park
E. H.Everything was displayed beautifully and done with sensitivity not spoiling the original feel and style of Bletchley Park.There were good refreshment facilities,a great shop and friendly informative, smart staff who actually seemed to enjoy their jobs. We went on a wet December day,but still enjoyed our visit. The cold outside made the big house and beautiful 'restaurant' ( with nice period type Christmas decor)even more inviting.Here again, the staff did their utmost to give you good service...friendly and helpful without being intrusive or overbearing.We also visited the cafe at the entrance which had lovely cakes and an understated retro feel . Thank goodness that this place has been decorated and managed with a feel for the past,but with good up to date facilities .The new large hand basins in the Ladies loo in the big house were stylish and lovely! I hope they are appeeciated. We will be back!!
P. S.Bletchley Park - the home of codebreaking. A fantastic slice of recent history which saw the first electronic computer and the foundation of GCHQ. Interception of signal intelligence, spying and intrigue is all here as history - not fiction.
And a great gift shop.
Of course at the time of visiting COVID measures were in place and adhered to across the site.
T. P.Great day out with daughter & grandson. Sensible precautions by BP and reduced numbers allowed. All went well, if you can go online and book a visit. It is well worth seeing what was achieved on our behalf.
P. W.Really interesting with something for everyone.
O. M.It had quite an elaborate exterior, a grand entrance with statues on either side, and the main area was decorated with wood. To the left is a recreation of an office from the time period, and information was written on a wall. There was a library and another office, as well as more areas which had more information on the area. Nice place, definitely go.
p. c.So much to see and do. It's an all day visit.
R. B.Amazing setup, so well presented and designed.
T. E.Thoroughly enjoyed the visit. Obviously you have to know why you're visiting. Highly recommend you take the free walking tour before going in the huts/manor house. Our guide was excellent. Stopped for a hot chocolate in a tin mug which was watery but maybe down to rations!!
M. F.Great day out. Learned a lot that I didn't know before.
J. J.Historical place, the entree is a bit expensive
J. G.The site is very covid prepared and the staff are if anything on the 'jobsworth side' of enforcing the rules, conveniently forgetting that we are paying a great deal of money to visit the site !....
They seem to have taken so much away over the years it can only be seen as a shadow of what it was to visit, it seems they are aiming at school parties these days, there seems to be so much missing from the early days that really had the character and feel that you would expect from a site with such a distinguished past.
Its a full days experience if you stick to the very good one way system they have introduced. The outside catering is not so much fun in the rain, but there is plenty of seating around the lake to cater for those who picnic.
If you have walking difficulties do not get too concerned before your visit, there is benches all around the site so you can take a breather. What is something of a problem is the childrens portaloo fibreglass toilets they have installed around the site. Why they never bought adult size ones makes one wonder !... to say they are a tight fit is putting it mildly......There are actualy three adult size toilets on site I could find, I think you need to be some kind of code breaker to find them.....haha
J. F.Just like the codebreakers work effort was completely unknown to the general population so it appears that the now museum at Bletchley Park is a place few people know of or visit. However, this is a fantastic and historic place you will sure appreciate once you have visited it.
The ticket entrance includes a tour (several of them available daily( with a very knowledgeable volunteer that will give you the basics, the also free multimedia guide (not audio only but with videos and testimonials), which, together with the well prepared locations and buildings, each dedicated to tell one part of the story, will make this a very memorable visit and one that can take you over 4 hours to complete!
D. C.Only part open because of COVID loved the wooden panelling and ceiling architecture. Office areas gave a real insight into working conditions, just glad they didn't have the cigarette smoke, they would have had in those days.
D. H.Fascinating, more than a day out .
C. S.Fascinating. Takes more than one visit
C. N.Difficult during Covid. We enjoyed our visit. A cafe was open. Everything was open. So interesting. What unsung heroes these people were. Women were vital to its success.
M. B.The park is really good and interesting, there is a lot to see and do, I wouldn't eat or drink from the portable food and drink stand by the lake as the prices were very dear, instead head towards the mansion and there is a hut that does better value food and you can have a glass of wine
D. B.Incredible place, well presented and great, simplified explanations of codebreaking. Well set up to deal with current pandemic. I would thoroughly recommend it to anyone with an interest in history.
D. C.Great day out.
N. D.I learnt a lot .All day wonder round it is so big .
S. C.Very interesting, well kept secrets of WW2 amazing stories of life and the critical work every one did on a daily basis throughout to bring the war to an end. Well worth a visit
S. M.Great day out!! Looking back at history and what these incredible, clever people did.
S. S.Although the main narrative presented to visitors at Bletchley Park is based around the mind boggling codebreaking exploits undertaken there during the Second World War, there are plenty of other stories to be unearthed here. The site is rich in social history as well as conflict and intelligence and visitors can get a strong sense of what it was like to be here during the war. Sounds and images are projected and broadcast around the site, encouraging us to imagine ...
J. L.Very interesting visit although social distancing restricted our entry to some exhibits. We were unable to see everything in 3 hours so may return.
C. N.Went during the Covid crisis. Pretty well organized, but some extra signing would have been helpful. You do get a free site map at reception. Face protection not mandatory- except for some obscure reason in the shop. Everything cardless: I DETEST cardless. Some excellent displays and videos. What geniuses they were- EVERYONE involved in code breaking. Allow at least 1/2 day.
A. H.Had an excellent visit. Very well organised for covid19, social distance measures in force. Really enjoyed looking around the exhibits ...would definitely recommend.
T. H.Very interesting place with lots of excellent exhibits. Well worth the drive down so glad we came. Thank you to our excellent, engaging and informative tour guide.
C. B.Had a wonderful day staff so welcoming and knowledgeable, covid save without making you feel awkward ,scrumptious afternoon tea and the 1940s Santa's grotto took us back years seeing all of the old toys ,definitely worth a visit this was our 4th time and we were not disappointed
A. M.Amazing history, very well restored, nice tea room
D. T.The park experience could benefit from guided tours and actors in 1940s clothing around the site.You want to get a feel for the real life experiences of those who lived and worked there.Needs livening up and much more child friendly information.
M. W.I find the whole story around Bletchley Park and the code breakers fascinating. The story is almost perfectly told by the exhibits and artifacts on display. The new presentation about d-day is especially well done and informative. I would recommend doing a bit of reading before going in order to understand how come Blwtchley Park is what it is. Highly recommended.
A. F.A wonderful example of how well we allow our great national achievements to be revisited by succeeding generations. Well set out and atmospheric. Great eating places too. An informative and extremely interesting day out.
N. R.Brilliant place. Lots of History and interesting facts about the crucial top secret work that helped win the war. Definitely worth a visit.
D. B.An enjoyable day out. Way over my head at times. It was quite busy when we went. In my opinion it's not for children. They will be bored out of their minds.
J.Very good shame some areas were closed due to Covid restrictions, but this can be expected. They have done an excellent job of running with the current situation and with the 12 month ticket hopefully I can revisit once things are back to normal and fully open.
F. E.It's an amazing experience for adults and young people. Especially if you enjoy the history of WW2 and the story of code breakers who helped in the war effort.
J. B.Bletchley Park is worth a full day's visit, at least. The tickets are valid for return trips over the next 12 months and you will want to come back.
I strongly recommend that you get yourself a place on the free guided tour as soon as you arrive. We had a chap called Eric who was beyond excellent. Fascinating, knowledgeable, passionate, witty and patient with everyone's questions, it really was the perfect way to set up the visit.
After your tour, you will know which of the many huts you want to visit. I recommend the D-day exhibition and the main displays at the entrance but there's tons more to see.
If you think you know everything about Bletchley Park and its work, think again. I have read much of the background and have a good understanding of enigma but there was a huge amount I knew absolutely nothing about.
No real downsides - the Tutte display was rather superficial and, at the other extreme, the Bombe display just made me more confused about how the wretched thing worked. If I'd had more time I would have found out more at the museum of computing on site (extra admission fee) - maybe I will on my return visit.
Café is OK but, if you are on a budget, bring sandwiches.
It is an amazing day out - everyone will find something that interests them.
P. W.Thoroughly enjoyed visit.
Just wonderful to walk in the grounds, within the buildings and huts to absorb the atmosphere of where history was made.
s. b.GO VISIT, SPEND THE DAY AND DISCOVER HOW IMPORTANT THIS PLACE WAS IN WW2. ALSO, BOOK AFTERNOON TEA IN THE MANSION AS IT IS VERY NICE
K. O.Lovely here,very informative on our anniversary
T. W.So much to see. Very descriptive covering everything on site. Annual pass ticket so one can return to complete tour. Close to rail station so car trip not necessary.
T. S. (.Fantastic place really interesting and it has electric car charging points, the audio visual guide was one of the best I have seen and heard and the cake in the cafe was tasty, the main restaurant/cafe hut 4 service let's it down slightly, on the day we were there it was badly organized and thrill staff were non communicative
P. B.Really interesting all round totally different to any museum ever visited very interactive can spend over a day there loved the old town tea cups in the cafe very atmospheric staff really helpful always got a story to be told
M. W.Amazing building and history. Lovely grounds.
J. L.Great thought provoking place. Corona virus procedures make you feel very safe. Great to take a picnic and sit by the lake.
K. N.Walk through the history was so real. For all those history loves, watch the movie immitation game ( which connects u to a place little bit ) and read about deadly effects of world war 2 . You will understand the importance of this place better
T. P.Been a few times now, excellent and knowledgeable guides, constantly getting bigger and better. More huts opening and new exhibits and information along with original documents and equipment. Will be visiting again soon.
T. S.Very interesting and mind boggling place to visit. Country owes a lot to BP.
L. F.Fantastic mansion full of war memorabilia
J. B.This was a fun day of learning about what went on here during WWII. I would not recommend bringing younger children unless the intent is to let them run around the park area itself. There is a ton of reading and not much of visual excitement.
P. S.Bletchley Park - the home of codebreaking. A fantastic slice of recent history which saw the first electronic computer and the foundation of GCHQ. Interception of signal intelligence, spying and intrigue is all here as history - not …
D. B.Incredible place, well presented and great, simplified explanations of codebreaking. Well set up to deal with current pandemic. I would thoroughly recommend it to anyone with an interest in history.
J. J.Historical place, the entree is a bit expensive
S. M.Tough one to review. Visited on one of the first days following lock down due to Covid19. Lots of areas not open - yet same entrance fee. …
S. H.So much to see, and so interesting - pleased we can visit multiple times in a year cos way too much to take in on one visit. Very nice food and drinks,not cheap but I would say worth it, try their sausage roll as a snack and maybe the thyme roasted chicken for lunch
A. H.Great time, spent all day there and learnt allot. Having a ticket were you can return within 12 months was an added bonus. I will certainly do that as it was too much information to taken at once.
a. s.Memorable experience at station x
M. C.Fantastic day out, and a privilege to be able to see this place. The abilities of the men and women who worked here are truly astonishing. The tickets are valid for a year, so we will be back. They have done a great job of keeping it all covid-safe.
N. W.Interesting part of British history The some of the staff didn't seem very happy could be just the heat
R. P.A brilliant insight into the world of code-breaking during the 2nd World War. Plenty of interactive exhibits, and a mind-boggling view of the behind-the-lines battle for secrecy and understanding of the enemy and their communications. A …
N. R.A great day out learned a lot!
D. B.Very busy and long queues for everything. Cafe v expensive, suspect will be better after covid.
B. C.A very atmospheric place that played a key role in the war.
G. A.Mesmerising place of British History! Superbly restored and characterised. A must see place of outstanding value! Churchill's war was never served so well as by all who worked there.
M. S.A very good day would recomend any one to go
R. H.Humbled in the knowledge of the dedication and commitment of the code-breakers
W. C.Brilliant parking. Fantastic historical place to visit.
R. D.Great day out Thanks to Bob from Eastons travel for a lovely safe drive there and back
N. T.Wonderful nostalgic atmosphere. Charming staff, clear signage, lovely tea rooms. Children's playground & code breaker activities. Incredible history!
J. W.Really enjoyed my visit, amazing to think what effort was made by some wonderfully intelligent people to crack the codes in the 2nd world war.
S. B.Great museum to visit, lots of interesting history to see and read. Give yourself lots of time if you like this kind of thing.
N. W.Interesting part of British history The some of the staff didn't seem very happy could be just the heat
J. B.Lovely house within the beautiful grounds with an interesting history.
B. G.Fantastic place to visit. Very informative, lovely staff, excellent food and exceptionally well organised in relation to social distancing.
P. H.Fantastic place for anyone interested in WW11 or History in general
Far too much to take in on one visit so it's great to know that the admission fee allows entry as many times as you wish for the year following the first visit
Good facilities and the is a good amount of parking very close to the entrance
Has the regulation gift shop which is well stocked ands a cafeteria that does the job
Go there if you can!
K. S.An enlightening experience.
Be aware that food is very expensive.
D. D.A worthwhile place to see. Bletchley is a reminder of the impressive accomplishments of WWII codebreakers, and of how they helped save lives and bring victory. A fitting remembrance of the brilliance and dedication of this group of people.
L. B.Great day out, very interesting.
a. b.Brillant day out really well organized with cov 19 lots of things to see had afternoon tea there too very tasty lovely cakes wirth a visit
J. H.Very nice give you a real sense of how it was during the war.
R. C.Great day out. There is a lot of stuff to read, so not ideal for little ones, but if the weather is like today there's lots of space outside.
F. K.A most interesting place. It's fascinating to learn how the worlds first computer was invented secretly, and the great impact it had on WW2. And then it's sad to see how a true hero of world history was treated after saving thousands of lifes.
J. K.Who don't love Bletchley Park please visit everybody
a. m. W.wow is all I can say, this place takes you back in time . very educating
J. R.Great experience and well worth a visit if you have an interest in the 1940's, WW2 or espionage
C. G.Brilliant place, such a lovely touching experience, a humbling inspiration... excellent restaurant, book before for afternoon tea. Research your surname in the roll of honour.
M. S.Absolutely fabulous place, so well presented with lots to see and do and explore. Friendly, helpful staff, wonderful setting, everything brought to life so sensitively. Full marks.
S. N.A must goto place, the history and the story needs to be told.
A. M.Great day out with the kids learning about the history of code breaking in WW2
P. F.Fascinating and well worth a visit. It's a pity there's no information about the truly grotesque mansion - worth a visit in itself. You see just how decadent Victorian styling could be.
G. G.Gorgeous house an interesting history
b. m.Brilliant visit so much history
C. P.I had a fantastic day at Bletchley Park. Finished of with afternoon tea which was superb.
C. K.Beautiful house.
J. H.Fascinating piece of history.
Could have spent way longer than the 2 hours we had, so will be returning as free pass for the year
L. K.Fantastic day with so much information to take in. Needs at least two visits to see everything.
A. S.Pre booked afternoon tea in the mansion at bletchly - well worth the extra cost , friendly efficient service, nice food (especially the scone,jam and cream) and all covid friendly
S. G.Must see museum immaculately kept with lots of information and history. Give yourself a day at the tnmoc too on site if you like computing.
W. K.History under your feet and real life stories of the human character. The greatest generation. Minblowing ingenuity and passion of the codebreakers and the thousands of civil and military women that helped in the life and death cause. May your memory endure forever. If you have any interest in world war 2, any interest on the secret intelligence fight 'behind the lines' or any interest in puzzles and codebreaking, then what are you waiting? If no interest and you wish to go through life remaining ignorant to important recent history, sacrifice and human endeavour then don't go.
M. W.What they've done with the place is the right direction. I would like to see more tours and more films of people who served to give more of a sense of what it was like to work there. That being said it's a nice day out! :)
c. m.Great day out, (Fabulous)
m. i.Once again an enjoyable visit although with restrictions extra efforts being made to ensure visitors feel safe ! Well done.
D. C.Beautiful addition to Bletchley Park.
M. C.A fabulous place where you can learn of the way the German coded messages were broken. See and understand how the people lived and worked during the 1940's. This place is the birthplace of the electronic computer age.
T. D.Brilliant place to visit
H. W.Brilliant. So informative. Great day out.
I. M.A great day out for all, lots of our history on display, well worth a visit.
S. M.Amazing historical facts and worthy of 5 stars. Only 4 as the audio explanation could have been better linked to the buildings history.
F. 1.Lovely place to stroll around. Can do the tour or use the media equipment. Lovely afternoon tea, very attentive and friendly staff.
K. H.Amazingly interesting place to visit, extremely good. You do need a lot of time here to really appreciate it!!
S. T.Amazing and mind blowing. Great insight into the work done by the team and the genius they employed to end the war early.
S. H.Well worth a visit, they are doing a great job with covid precautions. Really interesting history.
D. A.Very interesting place good day out
A. E.Expected more to do with the lives of the people who worked there. Actors bringing the museum to life would be excellent. For me, too much reading.
P. W.Fascinating and moving in equal measure..
D. M.A wonderful intriguing place, with so much secrecy going on behind closed doors to help beat the German war machine.
T. H.This is a place for those interested in the second world war. I enjoyed the visit but will need to go again as still a lot to see.
C. C.Open again with new exhibitions book on line. Deals for local residents.
S. D.Historic venue telling an important story of WW2 code breaking. There are sensible coronavirus constraints in place.
J. M.Very well organised. Very interesting and plenty to do. Had the afternoon tea which was very good.
