Q:
We have six children, aged between 13 & 5. Would you recommend. (Children are excellently behaved. Parents less so).
A:
I agree although I think the Museum of London would also be worth a visit as it has a lot of small interactive exhibitions perfect for keeping a range of ages entertained.
Q:
How long should you allow for visit?
A:
I would say 2 hours. There is a well stocked book store, as good as Foyles, ans an excellent restaurant which has an emphasis on fruit and vegetable- based meals.

How long should you allow for visit?
A:
I would allow 2-3 hours at minimum - tack on another hour for lunch and gift shop. We found some amazing things in their design gift shop that made the stop even more worthwhile.

The cafe is good but can be busy. If you want to combine two sights in one part of London, The British Library is only a few hundred yards away, and their special exhibitions are usually pretty good.
