Details
Beamish is a world-famous open-air museum, telling the story of life in North East England during the 1820s, 1900s & 1940s. Well-behaved dogs are welcome at the museum and entry is free for dogs and water bowls are provided around the museum!
Dogs are welcome around the open-air museum’s large grounds. Dogs are usually allowed on transport (lower deck, not on seats, at conductor’s discretion) and in the following buildings and areas (however, there may need to be exceptions during particularly busy times): 1820s Waggonway and Great Shed, The 1900s Colliery Yard, including engine shed and lamp cabin (excluding drift mine), Rowley Station, The Sun Inn pub, Entrance building. Only assistance dogs are allowed into all other buildings, exhibits and catering areas.
There are a couple of rules in place which you have to abide by. Your dog must be on a lead and accompanied at all times and of course, you must pick up after your pooch (poo bags are available from the Entrance building if needed.)

We had a wonderful day out – staff were very friendly and the place felt very safe with the Covid restrictions in place.
Would certainly recommend going in a pair in order to take turns going into the buildings in order to get the full experience. The gift shop at the end does allow dogs in as this is the only exit.
