RNLI Grace Darling Museum

Fascinating museum with original artifacts from the day of Grace Darling. It also holds the original boat that was used in the rescue as well as the journal kept by Grace's father. The one issue that we had was that we had planned on parking across the street as was mentioned on the website, but the lot was closed. And the street parking was all taken. We ended up in the Pay & Display lot across from the castle. We were fortunate to have arrived early, because as we were returning to the car, there were no open spaces available. This was on a Tuesday in mid-September. So, be sure to have a back-up parking plan when you visit. We found the museum to be well worth climbing the hill from the lot to visit.

This museum is not very big but tells story of Grace Darling really well,cobble Grace and her Father rowed that night to rescue 7 survivors is amazing. Really worth visit. No entry fee but donations gratefully accepted. Memorial is in Church across the road.

A small RNLI museum dedicated to showing the life and deeds of the Victorian heroine Grace Darling. It's small but well curated, with exhibits from her life and times. It also houses the coble, the small rowing boat in which she and her father undertook the rescue of 9 survivors of a shipwreck. It's well worth a visit. Opposite the museum the church of St Aidan is worth a visit in its own right but Grace Darling's grave and memorial are in the church graveyard.

A small but really well organised free museum telling the story of a very ordinary but remarkable woman’s selfless bravery and sense of duty. Some great interactive displays and exhibits from the Victorian era

It was free to get into the museum all they recommend you do is donate to the charity on your way out of the museum . It not very big museum , so it should only take u half and hour to look round . I recommend this to anyone that like a bit history.

Lovely, small museum located a few steps away from where Grace was born in beautiful Bamburgh. It is run by welcoming volunteers who will be pleased to help or give you information. Well worth the drive to see.

Lovely little museum, my daughter has been learning about grace darling at school so we had to go. Was not disappointed, the staff were amazing and so informative. Free to enter but please donate as it helps keep the museum open and running.

Free entry. The museum is small but packed with lots of information about Grace and her family. There are low level button-press actions for little ones, and the 'light up' model of the lighthouse is great. There are short, informative videos too. A small RNLI shop is also on site.
