Superb. I love our Roman history and the things they left behind. I've been to a few Roman sites and this villa is great, or should I say, this villas mosaic floors are great. Amazing mosaic work, great stories behind it's finding and showing off. There was a school visit here when we visited, so it's child friendly. It's not overly disabled friendly and definitely not wheelchair friendly; the floors just can't be made so. Plenty of free parking. I'd suggest it's too tight for buggies, so you'll need to carry babies. No dogs allowed.
If you enjoy reading the placards and descriptions at historical sites, then there are plenty here for you. The site is quite small but surrounded by vast green fields. Watch out for uneven floors of you are unsteady on your feet. The age of the mosaics and artifacts is quite impressive, and the small costume area contained a few other activities for younger children to engage with. It's a bit pricey for what it is, but the money keeps historical places like this up and running. Worth a visit of you're in the area and like history, architecture or fresh air!
Slightly off the main roads, but with a visit. Contains the longest mosaic hallway in the UK and an original Roman indoor water feature
Lovely piece of history in rural scenery. Visited here for the sunflower maze. Everyone working at this event was helpful and friendly. The sunflowers were beautiful. Lovely and quiet on my Sunday early morning visit. Prices for everything were fair. Lots of places to sit outside.
Amazing mosaics in quite a surprising setting. Off the beaten track somewhat but the staff were brilliant. Desperately needs a lottery grant to help preserve these wonderful pieces of history. Please take a look, the mosaics are stunning.
