PAPPLEWICK Pumping Station museum has joined Keyworth Village Café and Bistro and the Radisson Blu Hotel, near East Midlands Airport, among the county's best-rated tourist spots.
The Victorian steam engines in Rigg Lane, Ravenshead, which used to supply water to central Nottingham, are run by volunteers and are open on six weekends in 2014.
And the museum has now been awarded review website TripAdvisor's certificate of excellence.
When selecting certificate winners, TripAdvisor uses an algorithm which takes into account the number of ratings, how recent they are and the attraction's overall score.
Museum director Ashley Smart said: "We'd like to thank all of our past visitors who took the time to complete a review. There is no greater seal of approval than being recognised by one's customers.
"The accolade is a remarkable vote of confidence to the museum and our continued commitment to excellence."
