Delightful experience! Set in a lovely high street. Very friendly, welcoming staff. Interactive displays and activities. Mystery question trail with a great writing inspiration book. Sweetly Nostalgic for myself as an avid Dahl fan from childhood. Super bookshop

Lovely little museum and centre. Fantastic for all ages. Would recommend to anyone. Circa 2hrs. The writing shed is a real highlight along with the video of Roald in the storytelling centre. Loved the how sparky are you machine!

The museum is well done, but I was left feeling like I needed something more. I think I was expecting each room or display to focus on each of his books in turn, but instead everything is just all everywhere. What is there is very good, and exactly as I imagined Roald Dahl to be, maybe we should have gone when our children were smaller? I loved seeing the writing hut and learning about each of the curios Dahl kept close to hand. The temporary display of Mr Fox's Den was fab.

A very interesting presentation of Roald Dahl’s Life and work - very hands on and interactive if you bring children with you.

I have to agree with several of the reviews that the amount of reading required to enjoy this museum seems strange when I can think of so many many ways the experience could be made more hands on.
You need to have a high reading level to access so much, there is only so much a young child will listen to. And in this case that was an awful lot of listening for one 8 year old boy .
There were several craft activities, if you were lucky to find a space to sit or there were the pictures or houses to create. Then activities required the ability to write.
In my opinion ( 38 years in primary education) the museum has missed the chance to engage all children no matter what their age or ability. Our little chap was desperate to find the characters he has heard the stories about, they could be either in miniature form or staff dressed up.
On the upside my other half enjoyed reading the plethora of information. And for a museum the price was fair.

Lovely well organised experience last Saturday
Saturday's a good day to visit for these 2 seniors
Lots of seating.No school parties.
Sad the cafe was shut as staff phoned in that morning.
Kept us amused for 3hrs.Easy walk to the church and to say thankyou to Roald for his lovely writing.Just reading his countryside tales.The organist was practicing in the church at Lunch time.It was lovely.
Perfect pro Covid visit for us as we haven't been far for a while

Such a warm but maybe too enthusiastic greeting. Was able to go in early which was great. Although for a Saturday I was very surprised at how quiet it was. Even though being an adult was allowed to do the quiz. Onto room 1 and Gosh what a lot of reading. Same for room two too. Room three was more aimed at children like with the crafts and dressing up. Thought there would be more for the grown up’s other than just reading. And such a shame there wasn’t information on George’s marvellous medicine or maybe I missed it.
Such a shame the cafe was closed but the gift shop was actually reasonably priced Altho shocked to see four people working in here. Not exactly much to do for four people. Perhaps I’m not a bigger fan of roald Dahl as I thought. But not a bad museum for £7 Altho as a solo adult it only took 30minutes to complete and I had paid for three hours parking expecting the museum to take like an hour

📚 ✍⭐Swizzfigginly charming! I'd been a fan of Roald Dahl's story since his books were part of my childhood and still rate him as the best childrens story teller of all time. I'd always wanted to visit the museum and Great Missenden where all his great stories came into the world and I wasnt disappointed by the quaint little village and charming museum.
I was allowed to come in a bit earlier than my time slot on a Sunday by the friendly staff and allowed to take videos and photographs. Parts of the museum actually smelled like chocolate! 🍫The exhibition took you through the fascinating journey of Roald Dahls early life and past careers and adventures, original drafts manuscripts, illustrations and history behind his well-loved stories and how they impact today's entertainment industry. The museum has also cleverly preserved the interior of his famous 'writing hut' from his nearby home so visitors could see his writing chair and world where his famous books would have started to come to life 🤩 There is also a Story Centre with creative childrens activities and a great gift shop where the Sunday staff Bethan and Sam were really friendly and helpful.
🥾 You can also pick up a village and country trail map around Great Missenden to see landmarks that inspired his stories and pay your respects at his grave at the village church.
If you loved Roald Dahls stories, you'll love the museum even if you're a kid grown-up! (theres a fantastic Mr Fox quiz for a kids or big kids to do as you explore the museum)👍It is a registered charitable museum also and a great way to give back to the Great Missenden community and support Roald Dahl's memory with a visit!
You might even see the BFG walking through the village.....

Really great day out if you want to escape from London. The Museum is a must for all Roald Dahl fans of any age. Really loved the countryside walk which the Museum also runs. Our Guide Michael was really informative and kept the children in the group entertained. Will definitely go back.

We visited last week and thoroughly enjoyed every minute. We had a guided village walk and a woodland walk (with Steve, the museum director, no less!) and found both to be superb. Fantastic to see the actual places that inspired Roald Dahl's famous stories.
The actual museum has fascinating artefacts and information. There are activities for children and interesting anecdotes.
The cafe provided excellent food.
Second time we've been and will undoubtedly go again.

Does anyone know how much the car park is on Link road please and if it accepts coins or is payable via an app (which most car parks are these days)? Thanks

Can you visit the museum without children? I’m a fan, and would love to visit, but I don’t have any kids..

I'm a Roald Dahl's enthusiast since I was a little girl and I'd like to visit the museum, getting there from London (I'll be in London for a short holiday, just 4 days) by train. I'd like to know if the visit is suitable for adults too, or if it is based only on children's activities.
I hope I made myself clear :)
Thank you in advance for every useful opinion.

My 8 year old loves Roald Dahl, but we live 2 hours away. Just wondering if the museum is worth the drive and if we can spend a whole day there or if it is a few hours maximum.

We spent most of the day there.
They have 2 walks that we took that are "Roald Dahl inspired" so where he came up with ideas. The main walk was about an hour.
We also had lunch - which always takes up a good proportion of the day.
If you're looking to spend the whole day there I would also suggest booking one of the extra activities and do every single activity in the rooms, otherwise you'll be out in no time.
If I'm honest though, we live just over an hour away and my daughter loves Roald Dahl, but I'm not sure I'd travel that far for it again.

Are there any gorgeous holiday cottages to hire near by for the weekend?

I expect so, probably type in Chilterns. I believe there are holiday cottages up at Chartridge which is probably 20 mins away it is on a farm.
Hope that helps. Clare.
