FOR LAST MINUTE CHANGES TO OUR OPENING HOURS PLEASE GO TO OUR OFFICIAL WEBSITE. Hornsea Museum - 2024 Season -SATURDAY 23 MARCH - SUNDAY 3 NOVEMBER. With six buildings and nineteen display areas, Hornsea Museum is much bigger than you might think: 18th century farmhouse (home to the Burns family for over 300 years) with its Victorian interiors, outbuildings with displays of rural life and local industries, an enclosed garden with play area, an 18th century barn, Swallow cottage with its Victorian schoolroom, the Whitedale building with model railway and 15 &17 Newbegin which houses our extensive collection of Hornsea Pottery. We host children's crafts workshops during the school holidays plus events throughout the year.
Just decided to pop in for a quick look whilst passing and boy am I glad I did. It only cost PS6 to get in and got a full rundown of the place from one of the amazingly friendly volunteers. There is so much to see and it is so well presented and preserved. I could not believe they could cram so many things in there. The history is so interesting too. This place is a real MUST SEE!
Lovely museum, very informative. Hornsea pottery exhibition was very good, was a little dissapointed in the shop,
It was quite basic, and it had a few facts. There wasn't much interaction (a few toys in the children's room, and a partially broken train station display). There were two rooms with audio description, to describe the items in the room.
Brilliant place to come as a group of adults but especially good with children. All get something out of it, but in the main different things. The people there are well informed, helpful and willing to help. The farmhouse side has roots as well as farm implements a proper wash room and scullery, beautiful kitchen and sitting room, that will bring back memories for some of the older people who visit. There is also a Hornsea pottery side, also interesting, fun to remember when you had that pattern of Hornsea crockery. Highly recommended
Unexpected gem in the centre of Hornsea telling the story of the town with an excellent Hornsea Pottery Exhibition. Not much to look at from the outside but it opens up with some superb displays in authentic settings inside and out with surprises around each corner. Freindly volunteers, brilliant visit.
Very interesting Much more than expected Highly recommended
