I visited the Wedgwood visitor centre with the purpose of purchasing some cups and mugs. There was quite alot of choice available, with prices starting from £1 to I don't know what. The staff were friendly and helpful. More

This really should be a 'must do' for everyone. World class collection in the museum, which is now under threat of dispersal. Good catering and lots of parking. More

I really loved this trip, it was just so interesting and engaging. I think everyone should know the story of Wedgwood as it's such a household name and has such as important place in British social history. The museum was fascinating with so much to take in and many, many beautiful things to look at. It took us a good... More

This was a wonderful experience from start to finish,You are visiting the Wedgwood museum and you must therefore expect it to be about Wedgwood pottery. We paid £10 to enter the museum and an extra £2.50 for the factory tour, this was very good and we got to see the various stages of the making of the pottery including seeing... More

The signage is very poor but not as poor as the service. Some of the staff in the visitor centre have very little interest in dealing with the public, have poor customer care skills... More

Was quite a while ago (around April 2011) but I had an 'experience voucher' which included access to the museum which was very interesting and staff very friendly. We then had a go at throwing a pot using wedgewood clay. The pot is then finished for you and posted to your home address (very well packaged). Lunch in the restaurant... More
