    At the moment you can get a yearly ticket for beamish open air museum for the same price as a day ticket got to be good value. This is a great day out for all the family
    lots of things for children to see and do but also interesting for adults

    Beamish Open Air Museum. Nice and clean. More for adults and older children. Expensive and very poor value for money

    Durham - Beamish Open Air Museum. It Is Different To Other attractions. It Is A Bit Rusty But It Still Looks Good. But Over All I Think It Is A Great Place To Visit

    Beamish is a large open-air museum in Durham depicting life in the late 19th and earthly 20th centuries. It has a town, village, farm, fair, railway station, manor house and trams to link to each part of the site.

    The entrance fee is reasonable, but if you live in the area you can pay a tiny bit more and return as many times as you like for no extra fee. You can even bring 2 guests. But you can't buy this membership on a bank holiday.

    The buildings are genuine, dismantled from other areas ...
