The wonderful Brooklands Museum bills itself as 'the birthplace of British motorsport and aviation' – there are 30 aircraft, representing the history of aviation, including a bomber plane rescued from Loch Ness. And if you're lucky, you can even get to sit on Concorde!
There's also a Grand Prix exhibition and vintage racing cars dating back to 1898. Chidren can enjoy a 'Bertie Bear Hunt', or borrow a time-traveller back-pack, and try on an aviator's goggles and helmet. Also popular is the interactive gallery, that makes science fun. Visitors can power a train by hand, build a bridge to stand on, and experiment with light and sound.
On your marks!
