A fascinating window into the world of the humble UK home through the lens of time. It's not the largest of museums but it is free and you'll certainly get an afternoon's worth of enjoyment out of it. The staff are on hand to help in any way and in all, it makes for a rather underrated gem amongst the dozens of museums in London. More
One of the most well-curated and uplifting museums I have visited in recent memory. I left so full of joy and inspiration. I was particularly moved it their collaboration with Missing People. It’s clear that the museum’s curators are investigating in engaging with the local community. More
It’s a great opportunity to appreciate the change in the home’s style during the ages all the way from the 1800 down to the late 1990s. I met some older people there who explained the differences and such. It’s so cool. If you’re a geek like me, you’ll love it!
A wonderful museum, so much to see and learn about. It's a great place to bring the whole family. It is free to enter. Some negatives are that the cafe was closed the toilets were filthy, and some of the handwashing gadgets were not working. More
As Museums go, this place is unique with rooms through the ages and at Christmas decorated accordingly. My first visit 30 odd years ago and the "new" development opened 1998 (now about to be refurbed) along with the redeveloped undercroft
Wholesome and feel-good kind of a museum! The displays were lovely, though they were often more arranged by the “vibe” than time period/class of the objects. There are many interesting stories to hear, whether about the Victorian servant
A stunning museum with a clear commitment to diversity, celebrating its local community and responding to concerns of the public. A collection that opens up what home means to us and that draws you intimately into the lives and spaces of
I went on a recent inset day with 2 under 10s. We had a really good time, helped by their free (donations if you like) for children's work books to use around the museum and also the working garden area. The children and me designed cups
An enjoyable hour wandering around the gardens followed by the rooms displaying relevant artefacts of the era being promoted. Much has changed and improved since a previous visit some 5 years ago. A great free experience. More
Lovely museum with great exhibitions and lots of accessibility options which made me able to see and enjoy much more. Plenty of lifts,toilets and planned seating as well as plenty of museum seats available to use.
I recently visited the Museum of the Home, for the first time, and thoroughly enjoyed my experience. It was fascinating to learn about and explore the evolution of domestic interiors from 1600 to the present day.
Great little museum, we attended a tour about herbs and the link to female healers delivered by Channelle was very insightful, making the visit! So any visitors be sure to check out the Tours on offer first!

An amazing location. Set back off the main road, you'll in for a surprise as the museum just keeps on going...and going..Turn another corner and there are yet more fun things to see.
Beautiful Christmas experience. No wait to get in. Had many items of great interest. The rooms throughout history were also interesting. Also very close to a overground as well. More
