Opening Times and Entry Fees

The Museum is now open for the season until the end of October. Opening times will be Tuesday to Saturday, 10am to 3.30pm (last entry 3pm). 

There will be extra openings on Bank Holiday Mondays and on on Sundays from the end of July through August.

The entry fee is £5 per adult; entrance is free for accompanied children under 16, wheelchair users and carers. 

Those with disabilities are welcome but because of narrow doorways and stairs there is limited access, we do have a ramp to enable wheelchair access to the reception area, on the ground floor, where there is a virtual tour that can be enjoyed.  We regret no dogs are allowed in the Museum.

We welcome tourists and local residents to pop in see our refurbished Visitor Centre. This is thanks to Buckfastleigh Town Council’s hard work in securing a successful funding bid from the UK Government UK Shared Prosperity Fund as part of the new ‘Buckfastleigh Gateway Project’.

This year we also completed the renovation of our Interface/Archive Room. This room has been renamed ‘The Sandra Coleman’ room after the lady who is one of the founder members. If you would like to access our records or look at any of the paperwork we hold that may relate to your property or hold information about ancestry, then please email the archive group to arrange an appointment:
