BEAMISH MUSEUM | How To Spend A Day At The Living Museum of the North - An Unmissable UK Attraction! 

I absolutely love Beamish 😊 my parents took me many times when I was a child, and now I have a child of my own we visit as often as we can. I know every inch of Beamish as I’ve been that many times - but each time I go I always see something new as the exhibits in each shop, house and building gets rotated regularly. It’s a place you have to visit, especially if you actually live in the North East

I would love to go to Elizabeth's Hair salon and get a hairstyle from 1950s, that's one of the coolest things I have ever heard! This is the coolest museum I have ever seen, thanks for introducing to us. I have added it on my bucket list!

I am so happy I found this video to give me a little throwback to when I was studying abroad in Newcastle, fell in LOVE with Beamish and visited I think 4 times in the span of less than 3 months. This museum is lovely, the people working there are so knowledgeable and helpful (I even recognised one of the people I met and had a whole conversation with about the suffragette movement) The baked goods and sweets are amazing, the environment is beautiful and… really… just go see it… it’s even more beautiful to experience in real life than this great video showed. Again, thank you so much for bringing me back for a bit ❤❤

Beamish was an amazing place to go to whilst I was a school kid, I haven't been in years. It's recommended to go more than once simply because there's too much to see in one day. Can't wait to go again.

I am from Germany and we visited Beamish last Tuesday during our trip through England. We absolutely loved it there! We didn't manage to see all areas so we will definetely come back. It is REALLY worth a visit!! 😀

Wow! Thank you so much for this video! I planned a three day trip to Durham and did not know what to do for my last day and now I know!

This has been a nostalgic blast from the past for me as I have been to Beamish many times from a young child. I am Scottish but my Nana and aunts, uncles and cousins all live in County Durham. I travelled on the tram, steam train, and coach. I went down the drift mine and saw the pit ponies. My mum had a colleague here in Scotland who's father-in-law's childhood home was rebuilt brick by brick at Beamish in the mining homes. The father, grandfather and great-grandfather were all miners. Her and her husband travelled several times to Beamish to see his grand-father's home. We visited the 1900's street and had our photo taken in traditional costumes. They were fronts only, tied at the back and was funny to see in our home movie as we were wearing shorts from behind. I remember visiting the dentist who showed that it was a foot operated drill and he said you want to come first thing as my leg gets tired as the day goes on and my hand starts to shake. He also explained that it was cheaper then for people to get all their teeth taken out than to repair one tooth. It was only the rich who got dental repairs and the poor had them all removed and even then false teeth were really only available to the wealthy. Thanks for your video as I had no idea that Beamish was being constantly expanded. I hope to visit my aunt nearby and visit Beamish again this summer. It's over 25 years since I was last there. My parents have both passed away but our Beamish photo is still wall-mounted. I remember my mum saying she looked like her gran in the photo with the clothes on. I must have been in my early twenties. A lot of great, treasured memories.

Wow this is really cool! Love the ancient looks!

Thanks I visited there 4 years ago it was a lovely visit might have to go again

Been to beamish many times just love the place and those of you who have never been it's well worth a visit

I love beamish so much! It’s unreal!!!

Grew up in the area been down the mine loads as a kid but it’s brilliant to see how it was like although a lot of the mine aren’t open to public for safety reasons

Very nice video.Has to be the best value ticket going.No rush as you can revisit for a year,great place..🤙

Hey Guys, I've never been to the Beamish Museum, but it looks fab, well worth a visit. I love all of the themed room sets. Have a good weekend - Nettie

Beamish is a cracking day out well worth going to see but one peace of advice take a packed lunch as it can be really busy

At 5:45 I sincerely expected you to say: "This is one of the original PIGS..."

Ahh this museum is soo cool. I really enjoyed your choice of music for this guide, it really added to the experience. I liked that there was an old style jukebox and salon! I don't know that I am aware of a museum quite like this one 😊 Your travel tips at the end are so helpful for planning a trip!

I’m SO SO happy I discovered your channel! I’m loving all the videos about UK destinations! On my bucket list since forever!😍

Went a couple of years ago. Loved it. Ifelt so sorry for the animals the day we were there as it was so hot!

the drift mine is a short walk down a low dark tunnel to give the impression of the working conditions, hard hats are provided but the staff wear flat caps, with a safety helmet hidden underneath

I have been to Beamish and went into Annfield Plain Co op shops all rebuilt

if you have walking difficulties there is a fully accessible bus ask any member of staff and they will radio for it, ask for current details when I went it only picked up at the tram stops

Never been that far up North, but I've been in the drift mine at the Black Country Living Museum, it was well worth it. If you live local to Beamish, go back and get a trip down the drift mine.

Oh you missed loads! the tram depot the archive store the railway station, the place is unreal. if you plan to visit and see it all it would take a week! the place is amazing. i got to sleepover with my scout group one night in the masonic hall that was an experience of a lifetime i can tell you

A Rural Policeman was assigned to a village and a special house was provided for Lodging. They tended to integrate better within the community and became trusted and popular.

I went to Beamish a couple times as a kid and still remember it and how interesting it was. I am starting to visit places around the UK and this is definitely on my list for somewhere to visit, can't wait to go back. With how much there is to do I am pretty sure gonna do it over 2 days. Anyone got any advice for close by hotel?

The admittance prices have increased from £19 to £22 for adults with reductions for pensioners and kids etc. They have also done away with the morning pre-booking, so you can just turn up go....

I’ve been here.

On some of the other videos of Beamish, I have seen a Local Policeman Constable out on his beat.

If I just want to visit for a day, do I have to buy the 1-year ticket?

Took my grandkids few year ago, fantastic place. Must go again

Fish and chips has gone up a lot more than that since this was filmed

3:36 is that God save the king?

5:39 *Don't mention Beer Starmer at Nearby Durham **-Hypocrite-** BeerGate !*

Just a point, to save you any embarrassment in the future. The letter H is pronounced Aitch, not Haitch, because it’s spelt Aitch. 👍

7:25 *Did you just say £19.50 each for Adults - what a Con !*

You missed a special event by nit going down the Mine.

If I want to visit beamish only once, should I buy ticket as well?
