Despite having to pay an extra 3 and half quid for parking it is well worth the visit if you want an excellent explanation of a battle that really diid change English history. Even though it was raining I wasnt disappointed I came to the English Heritage facility. Audio was excellent as were all the information boards which made it... More

A beautiful building but so expensive to tour around and car parking charges of £3.50 added on top. The car park is also down quite a steep road at the side of the building making disabled access difficult. If you decide not to pay for the tour Battle consist of one road facing the Abbey which does not offer much... More

Liked most of it, didn't like the pushy English Heritage woman selling memberships as we went in, nor the broken AV displays in the visitors centre. Other than that, well presented, and the audio tour was excellent.

If you want to learn about the most influential battle in English history - this is the ;place to do it! Good audio tours really provide an insight to how the battle progressed and you can al,most feel the melancholy of the lost nation

We visited the abbey and battlefield whilst staying in Battle. We particularly like the free audio tour which explained the context and history behind the place. Overall a "must do" place to visit for any one staying in the area.

The audio tours were fun, although a bit repetitive following the film in visitor centre. Kids enjoyed dressing up as knights... More

Its always a pleasure to visit the Abbey and enjoy the surrounding area. Its amazing how the locals keep the area nice and clean. Always a pleasure

Strolling up the hill, will make you appreciate the real difficulties the Normans faced. The visitor center binds it all... More

The Battle centre was very informative and the programme narrated by David Starkey good for putting the time and events into perspective. A nice day out
