The Helicopter Museum in Weston-super-Mare is the largest dedicated Rotorcraft Collection in the world, with over 80 helicopters displayed inside the museum's iconic hangar! Favourites include two of the Queen’s Royal Flight helicopters, the world speed record holder G-LYNX (400 km per hour!), the Vietnam Veteran Huey and the Hind Russian Gun Ship. Explore the old airfield's restored Pilots Block where you will find the ‘Weston Aviation Exhibition’ telling the story of Weston-super-Mare’s famous aviation past. Outside on the old taxiway visitors will be wowed by the 30 foot ‘Bristol Bloodhound’ Missile - the rockets of which were made just down the road in Banwell shortly after WW2. You don’t have to be an aviation buff to enjoy the museum and there’s plenty for kids to do - interactive zone, film theatre and ‘Play Copter’ are all family favourites! Regular open cockpit days give you a chance to climb aboard, have the controls explained to you by an expert and pose for a photo!

The is a private collection of Lambretta Scooters from 1948 onwards. We are not always open, especially at weekends as we attend and also organise scooter events around the UK. So it is always best to give us a call if coming at the weekend.
Reviewed By Bumblejack - Horsham, United Kingdom
The gentleman showing us around was very knowledgeable and he had long discussions with my husband who in his youth had been very involved with scooters. The different models were incredible that were on display. If you are a lambretta enthusiast you must go to this museum. This is a free entrance museum but donations are gratefully received,
