Tours
Since the first tours in 2004 the exhibition has continually grown with regular updates and improvements, now (2012) making RAF Holmpton the 'reference standard' of Cold War bunker tours in the UK. All visitors are now given guided tours of the site's many facilities, including four underground operations rooms, the guardroom, communications rooms, dormitories, offices, kitchen, officer's mess, life support operations systems, canteen and hospital, the coding & computer rooms and many other areas of interest. One gallery features a display map of 'Cold War' target sites in the UK. There are also films and presentations about the Cold War, the activities of the Royal Observer Corps, the site and its operations. For 2013 the new public tour will also open for the first time the long forgotten heart of the bunker revealing the site of the original twin level 1950's Operations Room along with the just decommissioned UK Air CCIS HQ known as "Area 7" The tour then concludes in the 1960s RAF Radar Operations Room with an Award Winning Multiscreen Show depicting just how RAF Holmpton would have operated under a Nuclear Attack.
