OP here. I thought of another question. How long did you end up staying at the museum, approximately? Did you eat there?
Our tickets were around 12:30pm (I wanted to get them for a bit earlier but earlier times were all sold out by the time I was ready to buy them), so we ate right when we got there. There is a cafeteria near where you enter the building. The food was decent. We left around 3:30pm-4pm. I could have stayed a bit longer but my daughter was ready to go so we went through more quickly once we hit the area with the Night Bus and Privet Drive.

Yes, your understanding is correct.

Subject: Am I understanding the "off peak flex" ticket correctly?- UK
We are traveling to the UK for vacation in a few weeks. In addition to the underground, we will need to take trains to Cambridge and also to the Harry Potter Museum.
Am I understanding correctly that if I book "off peak flex" tickets, we can travel on any off-peak train that day?
For example, to Cambridge it looks like we will book on Great Northern. If I book us the "off peak day return" ticket, do I understand correctly that as long as we travel after 9:15am (when peak ends) and we come and go the same day, this ticket will work even if it's not the exact train time I select? I am particularly concerned with the return time because I don't know exactly when we will come back. If I select "open return" we can return for up to a month, which we don't need and that adds a considerable cost to the ticket, whereas if I select an "off peak flex" return it's much cheaper.
