Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

This is the highlight of our trip! The entire staff/volunteers were beyond delightful. Informative, historic, and just plain cool. This is a must for anyone traveling thru or near Birmingham.

I cannot recommend this tour enough. I went with my mother for her 77th birthday and it was amazing. The tour guide was fantastic, very knowledgeable and he was full of interesting facts throughout. Well Done to all the volunteers that keep this museum going. I will definitely be back. Thank you for a lovely day.

We booked a tour and were so glad we did - our guide Nikki was knowledgeable, funny and clearly passionate about the place. The tour was absolutely fascinating, we loved hearing about the different characters that worked there, and seeing the different areas of the factory. We had a coffee after in the lovely cafe, and the lady there was so helpful finding us a map for the rest of our stay in Birmingham and talking us through the different attractions.
100% recommend this place. We had no idea what to expect but it truly is a little gem!

It sounds like an unusual family trip but everyone loved it. The guided tour really brought it all to life and took you back to a lost era of, often, horrifically tough industry. I can't recommend it enough. A must see attracting when in Birmingham.

The guide was superb. He explained the personal history's of those folk who owned or had worked at the factory, making clever links across the decades. Very informative and entertaining.

Anyone can build a coffin but the furniture for it? That’s another thing altogether. Furniture refers to the hardware (handles, plaques, ornaments, names, dates) you attach to the box to make it a bona fide coffin. Such was the brainchild of the Newman Brothers in the 1890s which morphed from a cottage industry into a full on factory typical of the Industrial Revolution. And by that I mean lots of people working in often hazardous conditions without safety gear of any kind for 12 hour work days (Saturday afternoon and Sundays off.) The pictures show the original equipment where molten lead casts were made to later be stamped and polished. This furniture success lead to subsequent ancillary funerary businesses all of which remained productive and profitable for decades. They became known as the Rolls Royce of this type of manufacturing and as such held a Royal Warrant for services to the Crown and a huge list of other prestigious companies. All said they would never run out of customers of every stripe ….

An outstanding museum in a restored coffin manufacturing factory. Our guide - Cornelius - was outstanding too. A unique piece of UK history.

Hi! I'm sorry but I have only just picked up your question. I can't remember the exact website I used as I just googled things to do in Birmingham and found the Coffin Works on it.

The Mothers Day review left me speechless. Did she pick out her favourite?
Skrevet 8. mars 2016
I am fortunate enough to have an imaginative daughter who puts some thought into taking me somewhere different for Mothers Day. I had an excellent time - much better than all those mothers who got an overpriced bunch of flowers and a carvery meal at their local chain pub. Yes it was a giggle when she told me where she was taking me but we did get a photo fo me posing with a coffin - because we have a great sense of humour.
