A pleasant place to visit. Staff were knowledgeable and entertaining making for an interesting visit. The displays of printwork just makes you realise how skillful Thomas Bewick was and how detailed his printing blocks had to be. Plenty of parking space but unfortunately there's no cafe so if it's a nice day take a picnic as it's a very relaxing place.
Although this is a small NT property it is nonetheless very interesting and gets 5 stars from me because of the super friendly staff. Jordan, who looks after the garden was particularly engaging and fun. The smaller house on this site is where Thomas Bewick was born whilst the larger house, now housing the print room and museum, was built later in the 1820s by his brother's family. You can see some of Thomas Bewick's original illustrations in the museum, as well as several portraits of him , and the tools he used for carving his fine images onto woodblocks for printing. In a rather nice touch, they will give you an instantly produced print in the print room straight from the 19th Century printing press. Oh yes, and the views across the valley from here are fabulous, I could sit and look at this view all day long.
Inspirational, even on a rainy autumnal day. The guide we met was enthusiastic, informative and friendly and told us about the birthplace cottage and the current exhibition. The press room, where the printing is demonstrated is equally enjoyable, as was the museum section. There was an inviting warmth and lively energy about the place. I really loved the paint choices, a glowing green in the museum and a warm maroon on external woodwork. Looking forward to a visit in spring. Alas, no cake.
Nice place with wonderful views and nice garden but only the ground floor of the house openVisited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes
Bird song filled visit, after a deluge!! The sun accentuated the distant farmlands nestling between bright green hills, the view a secret specialiality of Cherryburn. All our guides were so knowledgeable and enthusiastic about their chosen aspects of Bewick's life and times. The area has changed since my last visit, much more wheelchair friendly. I look forward to going back to see how the new garden has developed. Excavations have been done around the older farmhouse, birthplace of Bewick, and lots of artifacts found. This will be part of for Channel 4 and BBC presentations in 2023. Inspiring visit
Small but fun. Great little treasure our first visit here today and it was quite rainey. However the staff were amazing very helpful and very enthusiastic generally lovely people we felt very welcome and very looked after. The kids printing, den building and lawn were great despite the rain. Due to the weather it felt like we had the place to ourselves but it was really good and again can't praise the staff enough.
Lovely place to visit. The birthplace of Thomas Bewick. The staff are very knowledgeable and if you're lucky there will be some demonstrations. His engravings were incredible when you look at the detail. There is a nice garden to explore and some Alpacas to see.
A nice little place to visit. The staff here are by far the best compared to any other places I have been and you can tell they love what they do. They're very friendly and helpful and added nicely to the experience. You can also see alpaca's which was epic especially if you haven't seen one before
Totally fascinating! This was due to the enthusiastic and passionate volunteers. They were so well informed and easily transmitted their knowledge to all. I came away with a lovely little print produced on one of Bewick's printing presses. The developing gardens were a mass of beautiful wildflowers - a magnet for bees and butterflies. Don't miss this little gem.
Lovely little place to go visit. Good for kids. There is a picnic area also and a lovely little walk around the gardens also
