We’re delighted to announce that Honeywood Museum will reopen on Thursday 20 May, Thursdays to Saturdays 10:00 to 17:00. We’re excited to welcome you back for a thoroughly enjoyable visit. You can book your visit through our eventbright page where you can also see any new exhibitions, events and fun family activities that we’ll have available. Walk-in visits will also be available.
 
What will my visit be like?
 
Your safety, and that of our staff, is our highest priority. That’s why we’ve introduced timed visits to stagger entry flow and help with social distancing. A ticket allows a group of up to six people from the same household or support bubble to visit the building for one hour. Visitors are also required to wear face coverings during their visit. Combined with a one-way route and an enhanced cleaning regime, including hand sanitisers on entry, we are pleased to be welcoming our visitors back safely.
 
The Friends' Shop

Our Shop at Honeywood Museum, with its range of unusual gifts and publications, will be open throughout the Museum's opening hours.

Honeywood Tea Room
 
Honeywood's Tea Room opening times remain unchanged, Monday to Thursday 10:00-18:00 and Friday to Sunday 10:00-18:30.

Little Holland House is currently closed until further notice due to project works.

Alice's Mad Tea Party and Carshalton-on-Sea from 2015, Honeywood Heritage Centre becoming a Museum in 2007 and Carshalton's WW1 commemoration in 2014.

We've added a page on the Olympic Torch Relay in 2012, and another looking back on Carshalton's Woolly Coven, the Yarn Bombers!

New for 2021 - a look at our amazing local history through the images depicted on picture postcards from the early 20th century.

A very happy Christmas to all our members, Friends, volunteers, front-of-house staff and viewers. We hope 2021 will prove to be a far happier and settled year for everyone.

Our Tea Room is now closed, and, as things stand, will reopen on Friday 1 January.
