A view of aircrafts. A place to relax and unwind.

What a great little airport. If you like to watch small planes and helicopters then this is the place to come. The parking is free and they have a lovely cafe /bar to eat and drink, with outside seating to watch the aircraft. Throughout the year they hold various different events, I'm going to join the car boot sale for the first time this year, music festivals, fairground etc. They regularly refuel military helicopters, such as the chinook and merlin, quite the spectacle. Well worth a visit, especially during the sunnier months.

Barton is a lovely old airfield with some quite notable art deco architecture around the hangers and the control tower (which I understand to be the oldest operational control tower in the country - don't quote me on that though)With a decent cafe and a nice relaxed old-fashioned atmosphere, it's certainly somewhere that would be of interest to any aviation enthusiast, including the rotary wing gang, as there is a heliport at the airfield. As such, you never know what may arrive next, from a DeHaviland Rapide to a military Lynx or some kind of fancy Airwolf looking thing. If you're in the area, pop in!

great place to look at small planes and the ocasional helocopter. theres plenty of planes taking off and landing on good days. the flight sim is also great and the watch tower has great views over the whole runway.

First time visiting this place, sadly all we saw was the police helicopter take off and return which was a bit of a disappointment but that couldn’t be helped, we still enjoyed it it has a lovely old fashioned feel to the place. There is a restaurant on site which I believe is independent of the airport which was nice.Great place to take children or if you have an interest in aviation.

This place was much better than anticipated. Booked a flying lesson for my son and was wondering what I was going to do for an hour. Car boot was on so that was that. There is also a cafe and bar. The hour went very quickly!

I had a fantastic experience day here flying a helicopter. The Instructor was really good, funny and knowledgeable which helped ease and anxiousness.Had to drop it 1 start tho because the route into the car park is riddled with potholes. Drive round extra slowly to avoid damage. Some holes are filled with water so you can't see how deep they are.

Good Flying Facilities For Private Pilots, Enjoy a drink or something to eat at the Sopwith Bar and Grill/ Veterans Bar inside or out. A good day out for families with an interest in Flying or not. Motorbike night Mondays with Car meets and Car Boot sales at other times.
