Visited on Thursday, lovely friendly welcome by 3 men in the entrance. Walked round reading and looking at so many different interesting items. There was also a kids activity room which was noisy but I just stayed away as had no children with me. Definitely be back again - thank you to the volunteers- amazing work

This was one of the finds of our holiday. Spent over an hour exploring excellent displays and I reckon that if you visited 10 times you would still find something new.
The staff were very friendly and able to answer any question thrown their way.
Well stocked shop to top it all.

One of 3 museums in the Sparows Nest below the lighthouse, also across the road are old rope walk, net drying racks, bouys and beach front walk to Ness point.
Lovely little museum, staffed on the day we visited by 2 very friendly knowledgable hosts - too much for me to take in. Loved seeing the hovercraft exhibit.

A must if you're in Lowestoft! This is a charming and fascinating museum, easy to navigate (no pun intended!), and absorb interesting information from local past.
Delightful guides - helpful and informative without being intrusive - (some can be, we've found).
A real little treasure!
