Getting here
Postcode for your sat nav: CV3 4FR.
The Museum is located near Baginton Village on Rowley Road, adjacent to the northern boundary of Coventry Airport, south of the A45. We’re easy to find and the Museum is well signposted from the A45. Once on the road between the A45 roundabout and Baginton village you can’t miss us, or our Vulcan! Have a look at the map below to find us.
Public buses from Coventry city centre to Baginton and Willenhall are available, however these are approximately a 30-45 walk from the museum site. If you travelling by public transport, it may be easier to use a taxi directly to the museum site.
Free car parking is provided for up to 100 vehicles (including coaches), with several spaces closest to the entrance reserved for Disabled Badge holders.

What can I eat and drink at the museum?
Take a break during your tour, and sit down in the warm and cosy Argosy Tea Room – have a bite to eat and then continue at your leisure. We offer a menu of light snacks and refreshments including hot and cold drinks, toasted sandwiches with various fillings and cakes. If it’s sunny outside you can of course take your meal outside to one of the picnic tables distributed throughout the external display area.
Is there a shop?
There is! We have a well-stocked shop selling model kits, diecast models, toys, books, magazines, paintings, prints, posters, souvenirs and other aviation-related items. We can order in any particular item you may be after if we don’t already stock it.
Can I bring my dog?
Well-behaved dogs on leads are welcome at the museum – on the hot days there’s even water for them to sip!
There are dedicated areas in the cafe to sit with your dog, please stick to these areas.
