Children really enjoyed the visit and had a good introduction to the Romans in Britain (October 2024 - Primary School)

A really enjoyable trip and the expert/historian really brought the Romans alive for the children even though they were ruins. The recreated townhouse really helped the children to understand how Romans would live and the costume activity was fun. Overall a great day! (September 2023 - Primary School)




There are many suitable activities to do at the site. Some are self led. The resources for the self-led activities were not as plentiful or sorted/ prepared as we would have liked. (July 2023 - Primary School)

Extremely knowledgeable guide, who really helped to bring the ruins to life. The delivery could have been more confident, but I think the guide we had was fairly new. Children thoroughly enjoyed it, learnt lots and the activities planned were good. (October 2022 - Primary School)

A nice location and the guided tour was informative and fun but probably would not go again as it was quite far and don't feel it offered as much as it could have. (May 2022 - Primary School)




Fantastic experience and helpful staff on site. (January 2022 - Primary School)




(June 2021 - Primary School)




The tour guide was excellent and did her best even in diverse weather at times. It was a shame we couldn't visit any of the indoor venues there due to the Covid restrictions. (November 2020 - Primary School)

The staff at the centre were very friendly and helpful, as well as informative. The led talk was great and the children really enjoyed it. The other self led box sessions were also good and all the resources needed were there. Lots of linking of previous teaching took place and children understood a wide range of Roman facts - from money, slaves and types of buildings. A very successful trip. (November 2019 - Primary School)




Successful trip with all children enjoying the experience. (October 2019 - Primary School)




Excellent day (October 2019 - Primary School)

Interesting place and the children gained a lot from it. The timings for the day don't work as efficiently as we had hoped. the self-led activities were long for the class doing them in the morning session as the activities are soon completed. The led part of day is good fun for the children but timings went a bit out on this occasion and would need reviewing for a future visit. (June 2019 - Primary School)
