Great cafe and museum with lots to see. Our toddlers really enjoyed walking around and exploring. Shame the trains weren't working and my falafel panini was a bit dry but otherwise very tasty

A small museum but full of local things, everything explained. Mostly on one level with a wheelchair lift to get disabled people into the halls, and also a nice cafe for tea and cake or hot food.
Well worth going if you join them (£10 per family) you get emails about upcoming talks and trips, etc.

Really interesting small museum. Well laid out, and very engaging. The town itself has a fascinating history, and this is extremely well charted by the curators, who fortunately have sourced lots of fascinating exhibits.Well worth a visit, and when you've finished, you can enjoy hot or cold drinks and a snack in the cafe afterwards. The gift shop and second hand book shop are also great!Follow up your visit by a walk around the historic buildings of Wantage, and see if you can find Kind Alfred's lost palace!

For a small town museum this place is pretty good. Kids love it in there and they do little events at half terms etc. Cafe is always good. Staff are helpful and Jonathan (pictured) in particular helped our girls research for their Brownies history badge. What a great guy.Small museum so don't expect natural history size but a lovely local gem.This place has always welcomed groups of mums with pushchairs and toddlers. It has babychabginv facilities and wheelchair accessible toilets.

Always a great place to visit. All the exhibits are interesting and inform about the local area.During term time there are usually 'treasure hunts' that are good for the children.During the holidays they run craft, Lego, clay and story sessions that are very popular. (Use the website to book before they fill up.)

As a Swindon childminder we absolutely love this place. We hadn?t been for a while and decided to visit today as it?s so cold! We had 8 children between the ages of 2&4 years. They all absolutely LOVED exploring the museum! The staff ( as always!) were so welcoming and friendly and we were very proud to have comments on how well behaved and well mannered the children were. Thank you as always for welcoming us and we truly love this little gem of a museum ??

Very welcoming to young children, there's always an option of sheets in clipboards for them to take and search for things. My children love finding cuddly rats and hiding them, colouring upstairs, using the microscope and playing hook a duck. Café good for children too.

Very cute place to take your kids. They have activity packs and a cafe. They often have special events on. It's very small but you make what you will of it. For example, they have lots of boxes under the displays where kids can touch and feel things. They even have smelling box. The staff are volunteers but polite enough. The food in the cafe is pretty good.
