Not knowing that this existed in Liverpool, we had a very pleasant visit this morning. We loved the tickets, presented as wartime passes, which added to our experience. Seeing first hand how hard it was for those working toward getting our fleet in the right place at the right time to defeat the enemy was a truly humbling experience. Interactive elements made it a definite must for all the family.

We took the kiddos (8 y/o girl and 4 y/o boy) to this and we had an absolute blast! The kids had a tough time picking which room was their favorite. While they were interacting with the room items, the hubs and I actually got to read the info about the bunker. It leaves you feeling appreciative for all the hard work, time, and intellect that went into winning WWII. Dave at the front desk was extremely helpful! Wish we lived closer so we could explore it again. Highly recommend!

We were recommended to visit this exhibition when we were in Liverpool. The tickets were a bit pricey but I don't think they have any other funding. Very interesting with all the paraphernalia needed to oversee the Atlantic convoys.

Very authentic museum based in the bunker where the Western Approaches were controlled. Museum could do with a little more explanation about what happened there and how they worked, perhaps more photos would have brought their work to life. Lots of fun hands on activities for children, especially enjoyed the Morse deciphering section.

Loads of interesting info but the whole place has clearly been done on a tiny budget. Needs much more interactive displays.
