Standing proudly in the heart of Teesdale, The Bowes Museum is the vision of a pioneering woman, Joséphine Bowes and her husband John.
A romantic history, stunning galleries, great location, fine dining, top-class exhibitions, family fun events, a thriving toddler group – all these can be discovered inside this fabulous listed building which resembles a French chateau. And that’s not all. It’s surrounded by parkland, woodland walks, formal gardens and a children’s play area.
No visit is complete without a browse in our shop, or a delicious snack in Café Bowes. If you’re looking for a great day out, make The Bowes Museum your destination of choice.
