FAQs

May I take photographs inside the Museum?
Visitors are welcome to take photographs, so long as it is done sensibly and with respect to other visitors.

Do you permit dogs inside the Museum?
Unfortunately, due to the delicate nature of Honeywood Museum’s building and objects, we are unable to allow dogs entry onto the premises with the exception of service dogs. Dogs are welcome in the outside seating area for the Honeywood Tea Room.

Reviews of Honeywood Museum 

Excellent museum right in the heart of Carshalton. Great events throughout the year with crafts for the kids during the school breaks. The exhibitions change on a regular basis which keeps it contemporary. Children friendly too. Clean toilet. Great gift shop. (Trip Advisor)
 
This place has a charm to it. Presents local history, offers a lot of events for smaller children and group workshops during daytime. Every visit requires a tea room stop. Fantastic cream tea! (Trip Advisor)
 
Very kid friendly, lovely staff and a must visit if visiting the area. (Google)
 
Wonderful place to visit for young and old alike, then go to the café and sit outside in beautiful surroundings with a cup of tea. (Google)
