Once again the museum hosted an evening for the Beaver Scouts of 1st Arbory on the Isle of Man. The children loved the exhibits, stories and trying on equipment. So many questions but all answered with expert knowledge at a level that engaged the children. Definitely recommended!

What a gem! I had no idea the museum was as extensive and interesting as it is. Absolutely fascinating - leave a long time to read all the stories and information and to see all the amazing items on display. The guys running it are so helpful and knowledgeable and Mr Ramsden is fascinating to talk to. Not surprised in the least that it's the number 1 attraction on the Island. Can't believe this museum has no support from the Manx government at all. It has free admission (as opposed to £12 per person at the Manx National Heritage sites) so do think on to leave a donation. This museum is a labour of love and contains so much information not available anywhere else. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

We visited this museum recently during our first ever trip to the Isle of Man. On arrival we were really impressed with the quality of the exhibits and especially the clear and comprehensive descriptions and historical details which were presented in a very easy to read format. I have a disability and use a mobility scooter to get around and although some of the doorways were a little tight for me, this was down to the large size of my scooter and all normal disabled access via wheelchair or smaller scooters will be perfectly fine. The gentleman in reception was very helpful and informative and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Give it a try, you won’t be disappointed.

What a gem. It was like being in a Tardis as it looked a lot smaller from the outside. The exhibits were so well displayed and very informative. There are a lot of years of preparation and thought gone into the whole museum. The gentleman at the entrance was very informative and obviously loves what he does. This museum should be preserved at all costs as it is invaluable to inform the younger generations of the price that was paid by so many.

Was sceptical about its high rating when I approached, but the guide said it was much bigger than it looked, and it is! Superb displays and array of memorabilia. Huge display of medals and the stories of their owners as well as Isle of Man military history and that of Manx regiment. Free Admission, but you will want to donate to help this great collection.

We really enjoyed our visit here. Everything was well presented. It is free but we did do a donation. One of the reviews says this place looks small but is a tardis and 100 % it is. Really nice guy working there too. Our teens picked up some unique items from the gift shop too. Parking is easy. It is right beside the airport.

What an incredible place. So interesting and so much to see. An absolute must-visit when on the island. A fascinating museum - allow yourself a long time there to take it all in. I can see why it’s the number one attraction. It exists entirely on donations and volunteers. Outstanding!👏👏👏

We visited here on our way to the ferry, to pass a couple of hours but could have stopped for a fair while longer. There is an absolute wealth of information about the experiences and exploits of the islanders during the two World Wars. The museum is beautifully laid out, you can tell it is a real labour of love. I've been to a lot of military museums of various sizes, and while this is not the biggest it is definitely up with the best.

Fascinating museum, obviously run by real enthusiasts who rely solely on donations. The volunteer who greeted us was extremely knowledgeable. Definitely one to revisit as it's impossible to take it all in on a single visit.

It looks quite small on the outside, we almost missed it but so glad we stopped as its like a tardis inside with so much to look at. An absolutely fascinating museum that gives real insight into the Isle of Man during times of conflict. We learned a lot from the exhibits and the lovely volunteers who were so knowledgeable and friendly. The museum is a real labour of love and relies on donations so do visit and ensure this wonderful place is there for generations to come.
