What an amazing place to visit! I went with somebody who struggles with her autism and social anxiety and so, before the visit, I went on their accessibility pages on their website. They provided a host of information and even an audio description in order to help picture the venue before our visit. We were warmly greeted and the woman on the desk who understood instantly, offering us an accessibility map, and ear defenders. This map was such a help, as it depicted the busy or noisy areas and the quiet spots. It warned of loud audio displays and flashing images, so we could be warned and choose where to visit. They have a headpiece and audio description unit you can have to help you through your visit and this was a great help too. She is doing a maths & neuroscience degree and so loved learning about the journey to decode the enigma machines, which ended in colossus. We had a talk with a member of staff, thanking them for the work on making the venue and information accessible, and he reminded us that neuro-diverse people were probably in the majority in Bletchley decoding. As the ticket was valid for one year, we were able to do a shorter visit and will return oftern to learn more. The food and grounds were great too.

I thoroughly enjoyed my romp through Bletchley Park. I would give myself at least half a day for a visit. A day if you want to read all the plaques. The self guided tour is nice, but the live guides are much better. Highly recommend it for history buffs, WW II enthusiasts, or anyone interested in Cryptography or early computing.

Incredible.... Us in the UK owe our liberty to the people who worked in secret here at Bletchley during WWII. A visit will show you the amazing intelligence they gathered by breaking the German encryption and using it to limit casualties and attack harder. It's a big site so allow 5hrs or so to do it justice. Better yet visit The National Museum of Computing (same site) the day before and dip your toe in at Bletchley for a couple of hours. The sessions at TNMOC do a much better job of explaining the technical side of things before you are overwhelmed at Bletchley.

A great experience if you're interested in the history of WWII and how Bletchley Park played a major role in cracking the German Enigma coded messages. I would recommend getting the free audio guide from the entrance building, go straight to the Mansion House and follow the map and buildings back to the entry/exit building. The grounds are beautiful, there are cafés you can take a break at anytime or you could even take a picnic on a nice day and sit at the picnic tables around the lake. You don't have to read everything or even listen to the whole guide, you can break it up at your leisure. There are interactive parts in several of the buildings to suit both adults and younger visitors too. There's a play park for young kids but most of the visit would not interest them. Very educational for 10s and over, in fact there were several school groups there when we went. A special mention to the team in the NRC radio building who were only too happy to explain and demonstrate the equipment in there. I even dabbled with a bit of morse code and sending my voice into outer space. The whole team right from the entry gatehouse to the exit gift shop were friendly throughout. The whole experience could be from a couple of hours to a whole day depending on how much you wanted to take in, we were there about 4 hours including a lunch break. We bought tickets online the day before which saves 10%

I have been wanting to visit this place pretty much since I have been in the UK. It's wonderfully well kept and maintained. The staff were helpful and friendly. Seriously they have the best soft serve ice cream I have even had out of a machine...just do it! Historically I was a little emotional at the sacrifices the codebreakers, signals intelligence, out riders, pigeons and any other affiliated people that played a part is ending the war early and saving thousands, millions of lives. I love this site and would highly recommend anyone in the area to give it a visit.
