The National Museum of Computing (next to but completely separate from Bletchly Park) is fantastic.
Definitely book a tour if you go. Speaking to the volunteers about how they used the machines on display is a fantastic way to experience part of the living history of computing.
And from a more local angle & purely for a lovely day out, may I recommend a trip to Cork City and a wander through George Boole’s old stomping ground in UCC.
HomeComputerMuseum, Helmond (Netherlands) is a very very very good one. They have hundreds of historical pieces, some very unique, WHICH YOU CAN PLAY WITH!
Not sure why this has been downvoted. This place is excellent and you won't be disappointed. Not far from Cambridge and Bletchley park in American terms.
In Germany we've quite a few more or less good equiped museums.. The one in Stuttgart, South of Germany, is located at the University and is quite interesting. May be the upper List will be of good inspiration for you!

To add to the delight of tnmoc, https://computermuseums.eu/ might be of interest.

I wanted to tell you about computer museums in Germany, but then I've found a list of computer museums of the world at wikipedia:

Bletchley park is great. Consider it a full day.
Cambridge has a bunch of computer stuff. I think Raspberry Pi started there.
