One of the most memorable local museums I have visited. Enough has been retained of the original Victorian mansion, particularly the dining room, now an excellent café, and the bathroom, dressing room (with a fashion display) and bedroom. The paintings on the walls are well chosen; the pair in the bedroom were amusing: "Courtship" and "Matrimony".
Some rooms are devoted to local history; often, to visitors from elsewhere (such as me) this can be impenetrable, but the explanations assumed limited local knowledge. Particularly interesting was the account of the 1919 Peace Day riot, during which the Town Hall was largely destroyed. The military section was picturesque and informative.
The Garden is charming, and the walk from/to the station is delightful and well signposted.

Me and my teenager daughter visited this museum in the summer holidays and we both loved it. The house is beautiful and set with the backdrop of Wardown Park which is lovely to pair with your visit. We both found the insights in to historical Luton life really interesting and we enjoyed the interactive displays. Walking up the stairs to the second floor gives you real feel of historic house. The cafe is very pretty and worth a visit, each table has a display inside and if you get a table near a window you get a lovely view of the park. Would definitely recommend a visit and we will definitely be going back again!

From the moment we entered the museum the staff were so helpful and knowledgeable. The exhibits are imaginatively laid out with lots of information. There is a little “find the mice” search to keep small children entertained. The cafe had a basic but good selection for a light lunch. We also noticed how clean everywhere was.

when i went to Wardown house, i was amazed with the house and its detail to reinstate history, the intricate details take you back in time while the touches of interactions serve modernly, a wonderful experience.

Well worth a visit, if not more than one visit. A beautiful house, full of history. Friendly, helpful staff & volunteers. Well maintained and, amazingly, it is free to enter. The grounds are worth a visit too. Very interesting, relaxing, with play areas for children. The cafe is reasonably priced, the food is nice and there are lovely views over the grounds.

Have been here several times before but our most recent visit was disappointing due to the cafe service. We had been for early mini golf, great little new addition to the site meaning we planned to spend most of the day with our little one at wardown now there’s that as well as house to look round, park and playground. However we ended up leaving after a quick wander round house which unusually had no welcoming staff at entrance. As mentioned in other reviews the cafe is pricey but we planned to have lunch there and as the museum is free understand this is where some of the money is to be made. The cafe had no savoury options at all, this was at 12 midday so we werent late and they had ran out, there were just none on offer. They had signs up saying paninis and sandwiches but actually had none available that day at all just cakes which we didnt want to only feed our 5 yr old. So we got in car and headed down to stockwood discovery centre instead 10 mins away, another great local free option thats great for kids and had much better and friendlier cafe. Next time we head to wardown for the day i’ll take a picnic!

What a lovely old house with the most caring staff, everywhere is so clean. The house is very interesting throughly enjoyed walking round and reading about the history.
The coffee shop is excellent the ladies very pleasant.
The Discovery Centre should take notes this is far better

An amazing house. Full of history, artifacts, amazing rooms. So much detail in the building, on the walls, floors, ceiling, woodwork etc. The outside of the building is full of detail, from the chimneys, walls, arches, carvings etc. The building has led a very interesting life, which is explained as you walk around. There are also interesting exhibitions, dressing up opportunities, interactive exhibits, quizzes and mouse trail for children, so this is a trip for younger and older visitors. The cafe prices are average but the food is very goid and the staff friendly. There is free parking available and no entrance fee but donations are very welcome. A must on your days out list.

Great little hidden gem in the middle of Luton. Surrounded by a lovely park and lake.
I’d recommend this museum for all ages.

What's actually in this museum? Luton culture website makes it sound like it's just a tearoom now. Where have all the hatmaking, lace and straw plaiting exhibitions gone to?

It's now been set out as a Victorian house, with exhibits showing how the house would have been lived in. They still have the hat, straw playing, and lace collection there, and there's still part of the old museum upstairs. The tea room is only one room. :)

Hi,
Unfortunately we are not currently able to offer a halal option for afternoon tea, however we do offer a vegetarian selection, which we can combine with fish options.
