Great place to find out about the islands history. Everything is laid out in a very informative and interesting way with number of great interactive displays. The ladies at the ticket kiosk were particularly friendly and welcoming

Well worth a visit. House of Manannan is very interesting, It is a must on a visit to Peel. It has a small tearoom, lifts to all the levels and plenty of toilets on each level. I wish I could have spent more time in here. I did not see everything as it was time to return to our coach. Very knowledgeable staff.

Visited this museum for the first time (been to IOM many times) whilst on a coach trip to IOM. Very impressed with all the displays and information about the history of the IOM. Only allowed 90 minutes to see all exhibits and will revisit if in Peel again. Particularly liked the video presentations and the model of the round house. Well worth a couple of hours if you are interested in history of island. Slight minor point - small Cafe unable to accommodate many customers.

What a breathtaking experience. A comprehensive study of the history of the island superbly told via interactive video and displays. The first display, a reconstruction of a round house is awesome. Highly recommended.

A very impressive place to visit, with so much of the island's history presented in an informative manner. All aspects of the Isle of Man are together in the same building, and we left with much more knowledge than when we arrived. So many nice touches, such as the smell of kippers in the fishing section. The additional section on the history of the RNLI on the island was a real bonus. Staff were pleasant and welcoming.

Went on day 2 of the visit to IOM. The owner of the cafe we called at that morning mentioned that this is the best place to start on the tour of the island, giving you the initial history. He wasn't wrong, you can tell there has been quite a bit of investment in the site. There was plenty of things to keep my autistic son occupied, you may need to be patient with some of the interactive props but they do work.

This is a really superbly done modern museum explaining the history of the different peoples who have lived on the Isle of Man in a very visual and interactive way, great for anyone but particularly suitable for families with children. The reconstructions of various types of dwellings and situations over the millennia are extremely well done. The highlight must, however, be the replica Norse Longship “Odin’s Raven”, which was actually sailed across from Norway in 1979. I also liked the Celtic roundhouse and the kipper smoking factory ! Highly recommended.

We very much enjoyed our visit here. When we arrived there were dancers and musicians celebrating a cultural event outside the venue. It was a joy to watch. The museum itself is a truly excellent and interactive experience. You traverse through different rooms exploring the culture of the Isle of Man. Lots of information about the history of the island and videos and artifacts to peruse. The staff were also very friendly and informative. Highly recommended!
