I was very lucky to visit with a Groupon half price voucher, which made the attraction extremely cheap. You can get a discount if you show Cadburyworld tickets. My great aunt lived in a cottage that was over 400 years old, and Selly Manor brought back many happy memories. There are two buildings to look at with different rooms all set up.There are costumes, armour to try on, old fashioned toys on the lawn. It was nice to go room to room exploring the different displays and the garden. They have a little gift shop and toilets, unfortunately no cafe which would of been great, but your only a couple of minutes away from the high street with plenty of facilities.

Stumbled upon it while in Bourneville (not from around here). Quaint little Tudor house full of history and character. Well-preserved and taken care of. No hovering guides, we got tickets and took our time to explore the small but very detailed house. Has interactive parts too presumably fun for kids. A little dim but otherwise atmospheric. Final room had costumes for visitors to try on. The attic too. Enjoyed it very much. You can organise events like weddings and such here too just inquire the ticketing booth.

Have lived near this little gem for a number of years and never visited. So decided to put that right today. It is well presented with lots of objects to handle as well as clear warnings on objects that need protecting. Many schoolchildren in today but all well behaved and engaged with staff and we still had plenty of chances to see rooms quietly. It is small so doesn't need a lot of time to do it justice. Now know where the phrase 'saving face' comes from.

I visited Selly Manor to watch an outside production of Charley's Aunt. The garden is extremely pretty and small, so ideal for anyone whose mobility isn't great, so I didn't get to see the house. I did however, visit the accompanying building which is a converted barn come shop. It's very pretty too, with beams and whitewashed walls. I thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience and will return to see the beautifully timbered, Tudor house on my next visit.

I enjoyed my tour of this museum. The Guide was most informative and was happy to answer any questions. The building is over 500 years old and was moved from its original site in 1909 by George Cadbury. Miinworth Greaves is the other building on the site and was also relocated by Cadbury and is thought to be the oldest surviving building in Birmingham. Certainly worth a visit.

Visited here last Friday straight after Cadbury World. Went and bought tickets inside (staff were sat relaxing not at the ticket desk) and told us to walk on in ourselves after purchasing. The Tudor houses had hardly anything inside with no history information or staff. Left within 5 minutes. Felt it was a waste of money, best off just taking a photo from outside for free.
