Hollytrees Museum

Small but ideal for school trips Would benefit from more lighting to fully appreciate some of the displays

Really nice family friendly free museum. Lots of top quality items from the past to marvel at. Many of them are domestic appliances, but there are toys. The house was once a grand house owned by the MP for Colchester , Charles Grey (not the Prime Minister) in the 1700's. There is information about demostic Servants and the History of the House. Very interesting 👌

A compact, family-friendly museum that gives a good amount of insight into the social history of Britain.

Nice free museum about the local history of Colchester, with a shop and a small tourist information area.

Brilliant, just brilliant! I spent the last day of my holiday there. Everyone was so lovely and I loved looking round the incredibly beautiful house. It was great! Go and visit, you will love it!
