I've been there. You go in sand pick up a handset Listen to the comentary as you go and just follow your own nose. It is very 60's and more like the ipcress file rather than James Bond. You end the tour by being lead into a cafew where there's stuff they want to flog you. You can have a cup of tea before you make your way out through a short tunnel into the fresh air.
The old chap in the cafe asked us how we found the place? He told him there was a dirty great sign outside saying SECRET NUCLEAR BUNKER

Hi Bridget  as usual Susan has not got a clue what any of you are talking  about do you all write in code just to confuse me.

Nawww .. it's not deliberate! There used to be a government / military nuclear bunker in Kelvedon Hatch which was a secret (obviously). After it was decommissioned it was given back to the landlowner, who turned it into a museum and tourist attraction. There are signs around the area that give directions to the "Secret Nuclear Bunker", which many find amusing.

Hi Bridget  Thanks so much for the information it seems strange putting up a sign for a Secret Location how weird and wonderful is that.
