With one of the region's most treasured attractions only a short drive away, we had to find out for ourselves what makes Beamish so special.

A time-travelling day out took us from the 1900s down the pits to the 1950s. We discovered first-hand the cramped conditions of the coal mines, enjoyed a trip to the fairground and sampled some beautiful traditional fish and chips from the coal-fired fryers. We witnessed the birth of the electronic age, with the convenience of modern appliances being sold for the first time, and saw a small glimpse of life through the first half of the 20th century; through its fashion, its decor and lifestyles. All this is told through a wonderful attention to detail and a fantastic team brimming with knowledge on life at that time.

While we had a wonderful day (and it was scorching!), we simply couldn't take in all the living museums sights in one visit - which makes its annual pass tickets even more inviting so that we can revisit through the seasons at no extra cost.

If you're yet to visit, we highly recommend a day out, or for families, it will likely become a regular day trip throughout the year.

With spring in bloom and summer on the horizon, we love to see your decorated decking and floral finesse bringing a touch of colour and your own personality to the park 🌷

Show us how you’ve made your space your own - from quirky ornaments to colourful blooms, we'd love to see it 📷

While there are plenty of wonderful ways to spend a day-trip across County Durham and beyond, a trip back in time is only a short drive away - no DeLorean needed.

See the booming post-war high street of the '50s, dig for victory on the 1940s farm or head back a little further to see the meticulously recreated Edwardian buildings and pit village of the 1900s. You can't beat Beamish for a fun, and educational day out - and with your tickets you can even keep coming back throughout the year at no extra cost.

If you've already visited, we'd love to hear which of the living museum's historical attractions is your favourite 💬
