  Found almost by accident (a leaflet at another site) and decided to take a chance although wasn't sure what to expect - whether there was enough to see. We... read more certainly were not disappointed. The exhibits were accompanied by plenty of information and often accompanied by information about those involved, not just those who gave their lives but those who survived. While looking at a restored aeroplane is great, being able to see the salvaged aircraft and other items makes it all the more interesting. A great find.

  Great little museum. It doesn't have a load of planes like some air museums but it does have a lot of interesting stories. You need to take time... read more to read the captions to get the most out of it. Enthusiastic staff. The radio shack didn't look interesting at first but some of the working exhibits mad it worth

All the staff were very informative, and a big thank you to... read more Jeff for giving the children a taste of carrying a heavy parachute, and the experience of jumping out of the back of the plane. Money well spent, and we would definitely recommend a visit. Tha

  There is so much to see and explore at this well run museum that you really cannot do it in one visit. We have been twice now and plan... read more to go many more times.

  Very interesting visit, really brought home to us the reality of WW2 being fought in the skies over this country and Europe. The personal stories of those heroes made it... read more very moving.

  I went today with my son ( loves war/aviation stuff ) my dad ( also an aviation enthusiast ) and my mum. Whilst I popped to the toilets the kind... read more gentlemen were sorting out a dodgy wheel on my dad's walker. The museum is in a hangar and can get a tad warm when the sun is out but there was air coming in from the door. The museum has so much in it that you don't know what to look at first. There's a great array of war artifacts and it's quite touching seeing some of the stories. The gentleman were very helpful and informative. I would recommend here for anyone with even a slight interest in World war and or aviation.

  Thank you to Daniel and his co-workers for an excellent guided tour of this fascinating museum. Lots of exhibits, but not too many, making the tour of the museum easy... read more on the feet !

  Was very interesting ended up talking to 2 very nice volunteers who gave me and my friend some very interesting history about all the artifacts in the building... read more and about how the museu

  The fascinating way it was laid out. Giving an insight to aircraft from the WW2. Also had a great chat with the person in the radio shack

  Great little spot tucked away in an unsuspecting area. Merlin engine run is a must-see (hear) if you can make one of these dates. Only thing I'd like more is... read more a physical ticket... the receipt isn't much of a memento.

  What a little gem this place is ! we called in on our route doing the London to Brighton classic car rally , don't be put off by the... read more outer appearances ( it's on a farm ) this place is amazing and the volunteer staff are lovely. The exhibits are honest examples of war time . I highly recommend a stroll around this packed museum.

  Took the kids here, aged 7 and 8, and had a throughly good time. There’s lots of interesting artefacts in the museums and pieces of WW2 memorabilia and part of... read more old panes and munitions etc. my particular favourite was the old piano from the RAF mess room, I expect that was the focal point of some lively drinking sessions back in the day. Plenty for the kids to see and do. The guys overseeing the museum were helpful and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.

  What a fantastic find! A small yet immersive experience, packed with hundreds of rare, original helmets, uniforms, and field gear from World War II. The experience is complete with... read more first-hand personal narratives and accounts in a variety of formats, including diaries, memoirs, journals, and non-fictional accounts. You really get a feel for the events of the war. The staff were warm, friendly, and great with the kids. Well done.

  Small, but perfectly interesting.

Spent 90 mins here, and their ww2 artefact collection is very impressive.

I particularly liked the air raid shelter.

  This is a fascinating museum, with exhibits displayed as they were found, not repaired. It puts another aspect on the awful times of war.
A very interesting exhibit is photos... read more and drawings from one of the camps. They are not pleasant to look at, considering the subject matter, but look at them we must, to understand a little what went on.
Lovely volunteers to chat to too.

  We had passed the sign to the Wings museum on several occasions & always wondered what was there so we decided to take the time to find out.
Were warmly... read more greeted on arrival. Everything was undercover in a hangar-type building, so ideal in the Autumn months when you cannot rely on decent weather.

Lots of interesting artefacts relating to the many bombers of WWII inc. German planes - Heinkel, Fortress, Junkers, Lancaster, Wellington etc. etc. Fascinating stories relating to the pilots who flew the aircraft too, some as young as 19 or 20! It's only a relatively small attraction so no cafe on site but a drinks machine en route if you need one or visit Balcombe village after for lunch or tea & cake.

The gentlemen who was running it yesterday was very knowledgeable & approachable if we'd any questions. We took our time & spent 2 1/2 hours there but it could be done much quicker if you don't have that much time to spare.

Great for singles, groups or families with older children. They are grateful for donations should you have any interesting memorabilia relating to WWII. They are also looking for volunteers.

Plenty of parking. Hand sanitiser on arrival, we gave our contact details for track & trace & had to wear our masks all the time but we felt very safe visiting. They accept cash or credit card & a discount for over 60's. Worth a visit so take the time to support & explore this interesting attraction.

  I had a great time visiting here. There is lots to see from WW2, from restored cockpit displays to bomb disposal equipment and artifact from exhumed wrecks and relics from... read more shot down aircraft throughout the war from all sides.

There are also interesting stories regarding the displays.

The Dakota is from tv series Band of Brothers which you can go inside. You can also sit inside cockpit of Chipmunk (it's a bit tight!) 🙂

This is a good place for any child or adult with an interest in WW2 or aircraft.

The owners were warm and friendly and a tea and coffee machine on site!

  Great Museum, very helpful and knowledgable Staff. lots of exhibits and stories to read some very moving to read. if you are interested in the Battle of Britain... read more or aircraft archeology this museum is a must.

  a rainy winter Sunday seemed the perfect excuse to visit somewhere we had often passed signs to but never visited and I am very glad we did. very helpful and... read more knowledgeable staff, fascinating exhibits, crashed aircraft might seem a bit morbid but the human story told with each display gives a very real and moving experience of what ww2 was really like to live through. wheelchair access was ok, there is access available via the farm next door to avoid the steep entrance path.

  Made a visit to this very good museum on the 25th June, and was made very welcome by the volunteers and owners.

Lots of artifacts to see with... read more some great stories, of very brave men.

I can highly recommend a visit. It has easy access and is well

  A really informative and moving collection of artefacts, organised into themed displays. None of the polish of the bigger museums and all the better for it!
