The Bowes Museum

Excellent day out. Loads of exhibits to see and arranged well around a beautiful house and gardens. Coffee shop and restaurant on site. There is also a lift for disabled access as the museum/house is set over 2 floors. Recommended.

Fabulous museum with so much to see you’ll probably need a second visit. The Silver Swan exhibit was particularly wonderful. It’s a stunning building to with a lovely cafe and friendly staff throughout. Loads of car parking spaces and well looked after toilet facilities.

Completely unexpected to find this gem in the middle of the country side Absolutely beautiful building and stunning collection of art, furniture, clothing and very querky inventions from over a few centuries ago …
