Langham Dome

A small but perfectly formed museum, created inside a WW2 anti-aircraft gunner training Dome in the middle of Langham Airfield in north Norfolk. We offer a wide variety of opportunities for learning and fun for all the family - informative displays and videos, online games, a dressing up cupboard, a training gun to have a go on, a picnic site and much more.

From the driving past the outside you would not realise how interesting this little dome would be! Stop though and read the information encapsulated on the tops of the picnic tables in the grounds and you get a taste of things to come! We found the exhibits and films thoroughly absorbing! A great insight into how the war affected the lives of the people this sleepy hamlet!

Reviewed By littlepinkhearts - London, United Kingdom

Took my toddler here on a family holiday last summer. He loved it so much, he mentions it pretty much every day. He has been begging to go back, I told him once “everyone stopped having a cold and it was allowed to open” we would. Every day he has been asking if today was the day. That’s how good this place is! So earlier this week today was the day, and we made a 4 hour round trip to visit, and wow it was still worth it. There is so much to see here, along with information for older ones and adults. We walked round the entire museum 3 times, and my son also enjoyed the play area. We didn’t use the cafe ourselves but it was open during our visit. The toilets were clean. They had a one way system in place (it was already there to begin with) and the place is so spacious I did not feel uncomfortable at all Covid wise. The staff we encountered were pleasant and helpful. I was pleased to find some nice sticker books in the gift shop as we struggled for something age appropriate in there last time. If I could make any suggestion, if would be to please stock some little army related bits for tiny ones in the gift shop (eg little die cast tanks?). He’s already asking when we can visit again! So I guess we’ll see you soon...

Enjoyed a visit to this garden centre which was well worth a visit whilst staying recently at The Pheasant Hotel in Kelling. It was such a lovely place. Lots of plants to buy which looked really healthy and staff very happy to help. Lovely selection of garden furniture and everything was really well priced compare to others we have visited. Bought lots of nice plants for our garden and used the discount voucher we were given at the hotel which was a nice touch. Also a tea shop for that much needed cuppa! Will definitely return.
