This place has no handicap accessibility! In this day and age. Not even a HP designated parking space. The docents were unapologetic. It was a rainy day and I, at 70 years old, had to slog her wheelchair up the slippery steps. No help offered.

This place is beautiful. It's a little off the beaten path, but if you're ever in Plymouth, it's not to be missed. It's an old period mansion, with the last occupants' belongings still inside. It has a wonderful history, and the tour guides are extremely knowledgeable. After you tour, don't forget to visit the garden outside. There are beautiful flowers,...

The house is beautiful and the tour was good. The house is a part of Plymouth history but not "Pilgrim" related. The tour was worth it.
Here is plymouth as the descendants would like to see it. A more traditional museum with an excellent library. Some AV presentations, and a new wing to give room to changing exhibits. Good art collection, the period as seen through the eyes of several generations of painters.
The name suggests (at least to dummies like us) that the house is related to the Mayflower but in fact it is a house that was owned by several later Plymouth residents. Rooms furnished in 19th century style with some very interesting exhibits.
This museum of artifacts donated by Mayflower descendents is housed in a most spectacular historic home. The house is decorated as a home so this is not a wander through and look at cases type of Museum. The docents are friendly and knowledgable. If you enjoy historic home tours, you will love this one.
They are very friendly, informative and willing to help you in any way they can at the Library. They have a genealogist on site to assist you (for a very small fee). The gardens outside are very beautiful!
If you like touring old houses then don't miss this one, it is just beautiful. Tour guide was very friendly and didn't rush the tour, answering any questions asked. The gardens are also very beautiful. And it is near Plymouth Rock so an easy walk.
You might think that the staff would get tired of hearing "Can you help me find out if I have a Mayflower ancestor?" -- but it appears they really enjoy their work! My grandmother had traced our family back to an ancestor who was sort of a mystery. The family rumor said he was decended from a Mayflower passenger, but...
