Advantages: The childhood museum is great and the interactive activities are good.

Disadvantages: There are a lot of steps in the hall and the walk from the car park to the hall

Visit here on a nice day to get the most out of it.

The car park for the museum is located diagonally opposite over the road, for those who may need assistance little golf buggies do to and fro providing a nice lift.

The centre piece of any visit to Sudbury Hall is the Childhood Museum - which takes the whole family through the nostalgic journey of toys through the years. The grounds to the hall are kept imaculate and in the summer there are large outdoor games for children - there was also a nature trail when we went, this involved following directions around the ground to find the locations of cards containing information on various animals and writing down what the animals eat, where they live and what colur they are.

The to the rear of the hall there is a large grassed area with a lake at the end. The hall itself is open to go round, this probably has less appeal for younger children, it also has a lot of steps but if you are interested in the architecture of old country homes then there are very good examples of this from the false windows on the exterior at the front on one side.

Summary: A very well kept museum, which is fun for everyone.
