The property has been open to the public since 1951. The National Trust operates it with the assistance of the city of Plymouth — the City of Plymouth Museums and Art Museum use the building to house part of their collection.
The collection is noted for the presence of "Drake's Drum". A number of independent craft workshops are located in the converted ox sheds.
