Excellent visit, would have liked to see some of the aircraft outside but probably need to go to one of their flying days for that. Swiss Garden was a lovely tranquil area with plenty of seats to just relax and enjoy the environment.

For aircraft enthusiasts this is a great place to visit. Maybe not so much for children as there were no child friendly activities and no interaction activities. His favourite part was the peacock and the garden chess set . The cafe was very good and everyone enjoyed their food

We are a family of aeroplane nerds, so when I saws this off from Travelzoo it made me arrange a family day out. We were not disappointed. There were so many aircraft, most in such fantastic condition, and each hangar had its own theme. There was plenty of room to move around at your own pace, and lots of information and artefacts that I have not seem elsewhere. The gardens were a treat as well, we spent a good hour walking round and discovering the different features. The cafe is well run, has good choices, as is reasonably priced with plenty of seating. I am really pleased that we went. There is plenty of easy parking. Last but not least, every single one of the staff was helpful, polite and friendly. We had a fabulous day out.

One person had a sat-nav the other used Wave and both got lost trying to find the postcode and no brown signs showing the way to Shuttleworth , so more directions are needed when booking

Travelzoo voucher accepted easily. Viewed the collection, had lunch in the cafe and a quick walk in the Swiss garden. Unfortunately, the recent weather hasn't been kind to the garden. Would go back for an event and to see the house.

What an amazing collection of historical vehicles that are cared for with love and dedication, and still in use! Brilliant to see so many young people actually working on the planes and being educated on site. Wonderful helpful staff.

Good cafe and shop also do not miss the beautiful gardens behind the hangers. What a peaceful gorgeous place.

Absolutely fabulous collection, beautifully presented. I was struck by the people, mainly volunteers I believe, who obviously love the place and what they do. It’s vital that this collection is preserved in tribute to the pioneer engineers and pilots who fought so bravely in wars and made it possible for us to fly in comfort and safety today.

Excellent day out. A wonderful collection of aeroplanes (and cars) on display in the hangers and out on the tarmac, complemented by very good visitor facilities too - a roomy, comfortable cafe, and plenty of toilets!

The only (small) downside was that the people on the desk had trouble scanning the vouchers I had been sent by Travelzoo, which was a little embarrassing as this had been a treat for a friend. We got in but it wasn't a smooth start to the day.

Very good day out, interested people might find there is not enough time to see all in a day. Our ticket issued was valid for 30 days, we are going back for 2nd viewing as it was a very warm day.

you need to get there ready when they first opened as there doesn't seem to be enough parking, we were ok as Blue Badge holders but as we were leaving early afternoon we saw several cars arrive, no space for them so they left which is a shame. Means Shuttleworth are missing out on revenue.
3 staff behind the cafe counter and only 1 was serving so the ice creams were pretty melty by the time I got served (I was second in the queue at around 12.30) . There were 2 tills however, but nobody stepping forward to serve, maybe as they were youngish staff they may have been new to the job?

Very impressed with the 6 hangars full of aircraft, vehicles and bikes and an enormous amount of photos, information, posters etc. Also enjoyed the different themed gardens, lakes and buildings/structures. Good food and value for money in the restaurant Just a pity you are not able to get a glimpse of the house from the gardens.

Brilliant exhibition of vintage aircraft and cars plus a classic car and motorcycle collection well worth visiting, with the added bonus of the beautiful Swiss Garden. The catering facilities are very good, with well trained staff and good quality food. In addition there was a 'fly in' of Rotorcraft and a meeting of the Aston Martin owners club. A great day out.

Really interesting site. Swiss Garden is lovely- spent about an hour walking round. Airplane Collection is amazing - and lots of information. Afterwards we sat and watched the activities of the small planes of the flying club on the runway. Only down comment was the prices in the cafe. £5,25 for a boring sandwich & £2.50 for a can of fizzy drink. Next time we'll bring our own.
