Froglet Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 I have just finished reading a book about Bletchley Park and am inspired to go and visit. I'm wondering if anyone else has been and would recommend it. It's quite a journey to get there for me. Website looks good and seems like there's enough to see there to make a long journey worth it.

lsp Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 (edited) Spoky - it's on my other TDL for the summer!!!! Just got to arrange and sort date to go with hubby and friends. It's not too far for me. Always wanted to go. sorry -spooky!!! Edited August 13, 2015 by lsp 1 Quote
Steve Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 We've been, although several years ago now. It's very atmospheric, and really gives the feel of the 1940s. I'd recommend it, certainly if you're engaged enough to have read a book about it! I wouldn't bank on Benedict Cumberbatch being there though if that is what is driving you. 4 Quote

It was a book group book which I was interested by but not necessarily expecting to enjoy and now I'm all intrigued! Benedict would be a bonus but I haven't actually seen the Imitation game! Thanks for the replies everyone. Have heard other positive things so will see if I can fit a visit in before term starts again. 1 Quote
finleysmaid Posted August 18, 2015 Posted August 18, 2015 perhaps you could organise it as a school trip and then get the children to write in code :rolleyes: 3 Quote
