Ardrossan Museum and Information Centre

Medium scale museum but there's just so many things inside. Very interesting artefacts and many old tools and equipment to see. We can see how people live in the past. There's two ladies mending the museum and the're very knowledgeable and informative. Not many people usually pass by small towns but it's good if they do because you get to explore and gain knowledge on these historical things, sights, information, etc. Easy to get parking outside the museum.

Friendly staff and super helpful to introduce the township and surrounding attractions for Yorke Peninsula.

Tourist Information centre was a wealth of information and the staff member Rosemary was so very helpful and pleasant. Couldn’t have had better service anywhere

Such a wonderful display of the areas history. The mix of agricultural, household and everyday life exhibits is excellent. Definitely worth the visit!!

The lady at the info centre was most helpful, great advice on relative places to stay at Cooper Peddy, things to do on York and provided useful brochures, all before official opening time.

What a fantastic museum with so much to see. We didn't know that the Stump Jump Plough was invented and manufactured in Ardrossan. If you're also into ship wrecks, there is a great display and history around the Zanoni wreck. Congratulations to all the work put into this museum and the informative volunteers that were they on Saturday the 18th of March.

Best museum on the Yorke peninsula. Even if you do nothing else, go here and explore the history of not only the stump jump plow, which was built right across the street, but also the history of the Zanoni ship. 12/10

Lots of useful local information. We presented and shared with us by very knowledgeable people.

Great museum full of stuff for all of us oldies. The curators are just fab. Ask for the drive around Ardrossan tour and enjoy.

We very much enjoyed our visit, especially the agricultural machinery and the history of the manufacture in Ardrossan of the stump-jump plough (see photo).

Knowledgeable & friendly staff, enjoyed our visit

Visited on the 6th of February this year. Absolutely loved the place. Staff were very knowledgeable and even aided us with seeking a welder to repair an issue on our van. Barb, Bob and Helen are worth their weight in gold there.

The museum was cheap and packed full of great articles and exhibits. Highly recommended for families and couples travelling there!

The lady that works there was so warm and welcoming to myself and my family when we arrived, gave us so much information and was extremely helpful. Very educated and so lovely! We definitely were 100% happy with the service she provided. Thankyou!

Large museum with well laid out displays, good description signage, and friendly and knowledgeable staff. We were pleasantly surprised at the size, the well lit displays and clean sheds.
Thanks very much, you clearly have a lot of pride in your museum and it shows.

We entered the museum 1/2 hour before closing. The staff were wonderful. Couldn't be more helpful and informative. Very interesting shipwreck display. Really enjoyed our visit. Wish we'd had more time.

Lots of fascinating antiques from past locals including hairbrushes, wedding dresses, cameras and even royal family memorabilia. Plus a video to watch. John was very helpful, thanks John

Fantastic little visitor Center and museum with very knowledgeable people who spent lots of time answering questions and sharing history with our 2 and 8 year olds. The staff treated them like royalty and my kids learnt a lot about many old things in the museum. Plus we gained a lot of info about things to do around the area.

For small towns this is one of the best museums to visit.All the displays are in mint condition and well preserved.The information given by the man (tour guide)was quite interesting.

I went there for information when searching my family tree. Wow. The staff and volunteers there were so helpful and couldn't do enough for me. They made it so easy for me to search not only in Ardrossan but all the Yorke Penninsular. Thanks for everything guys. Also check out the museum. It's worth a look.

Always a friendly face in here and I must stop off for me each time I go to Ardrossan I always stop off here and they have a really unique / well priced selection of ardrossan/ fishing themed merchandise from tea towels to jumpers , fridge magnets stickers , plus the attached museum is a low cost of $5 & hours of interesting things to look and learn about, and supporting our beautiful peninsula when we visit here on getaways has never been more important as yorkes is an absolute gem in our state. I cant speak highly enough of this place and the lovely staff
