Description

The Roald Dahl Children's Gallery is a children's museum that uses characters and themes from the books of Roald Dahl to stimulate children's interest in science, history and literature. This unique Gallery, housed in a charming old coach house, is a short walk across the courtyard from the main museum building.

The Gallery is on two floors and from the entrance foyer you can either go directly into the Discover Gallery or take the stairs up to the Imagination Gallery on the first floor. You can also, like Charlie and Willy Wonka, travel through space in the Great Glass Elevator between the two floors.

Price starts from £6.50 for Adults, £3.00 for Children(3-15 & under 3s free) and £25.00 for Family(1 Adults and up to 2 children). If you are looking for Best place for day out with kids and families then this is the perfect destination offering fun, adventure, and unforgettable memories for everyone.
