March 2022. Didn't go inside museum. Took some pictures of the pretty stream in the front garden area. With the light drizzle of rain upon the grass it looked amazingly green and lustrous. This caught my eye and I couldn't resist taking a pic!

We took my wife's elderly parents here yesterday. What an amazing museum. We've visited Pickering many, many times but did not know about this place. The staff were really welcoming and very very helpful. My mum in law is not too mobile and they took great care to explain the access difficulties (it's a listed building and so there are lots of steps and stairs and no lift). In the end she managed to get around it all. The exhibits are really interesting and the staff are happy to explain everything. This place is a real TARDIS, lots to see. The blacksmith spoke to us about his work and answered all our questions. Highly recommended! BTW go to Cappleman's fish and chips for your lunch while in the area, a 2 minute walk from the museum.

Interesting museum. Volunteers were very friendly and helpful. Good access for wheelchair users for ground floor and one of the barns but not for upper level. Worth checking what day the craftsmen will be working.

Spent nearly 2 hours looking around the museum. The interactive elements made the visit so much fun. The exhibition's were really well laid out and made it an enjoyable experience.

Like a Tardis, loads to look at and we'll maintained. A lovely lady and gentleman in charge and very helpful. Limited parking and better to book . Very reasonable price for a family of four. Great place if it's raining. Closed end of October till March/April.

This museum was far bigger and the content range and quality better than we ever expected in a twon the size of Pickering. The main them in rural life, but it covers every aspect from prison to pulpit, from cooking to carpentry, from childhood to old age and everything in between. You need two hours to do justice to the range of displays which cover a much larger area than expected.
