9 OF THE UK'S...TOP MUSEUMS
Practical Caravan
|November 2024
The UK is home to a brilliant selection of vibrant, engaging museums - here's our pick, plus a great site to stay at!
-
ONE OF MANY things the UK does very well is museums, offering everything from vast venues packed with global treasures, to outdoor living museums that give a real taste of daily life in the past.
London is packed with options and you can spend days walking around all the best museums. But it’s worth seeing what you can find in the smaller towns and cities, too.
Reading Museum, for example, is home to Britain’s Bayeux Tapestry, painstakingly handstitched by Victorian embroiderers, while Derby’s Museum of Making is in what was the world’s first modern factory.
Here are nine of the UK’s best museums, with a great open-all-year site to stay at.
Portsmouth Historic Dockyard
Hampshire, England
Located within Portsmouth Naval Base, this museum is home to some truly iconic ships, which you can explore inside and out.
Learn the story of Henry VIII’s ill-fated Mary Rose, or step aboard HMS Warrior, the steam-powered jewel of the Victorian Navy, and HMS Victory, which served as Nelson’s flagship in the Battle of Trafalgar.
