Visited Prestongrange museum as we'd seen it on google maps when looking ay the area where we were staying for the week. Absolutely fantastic site, lots of interesting things to look at and the volunteers working there were very helpful, friendly and genuinely cared about what they were doing. The site is free to visit, however they do offer guided tours for a small fee which is worth it to be able to go inside the engine shed and beam engine. It's a large site but you can make the visit last as long or as short as you like as there is lots of interesting things to look at. Some people may see it as not having a lot there but it is essentially an old industrial site that is open to the public to have a look around and it's worth a visit, there are currently a number of projects in progress that will further improve the site and I imagine in a few years there will be even more things to see.

Visited today with my dad and had a great time. There are plenty of informative boards around the grounds. We started with the audio tour, then Katie kindly took us inside the beam engine pump house, followed by another building where we got to see the trains and carts. There's a wee café with a good selection, and the staff were very friendly and welcoming.

Visited here with the family. Lots of information and a lovely walk around the grounds. There is a visitor centre with a cafe and mining equipment etc to view from times gone by. The new engine shed is open and the staff member let me and my son in to view the locomotives in there and gave my son lots of information about them. Staff are fantastic, friendly and informative.It's free to enter but donations are welcome. Definitely recommend

Visited while on holiday at nearby Seton Sands. Easily accessible by public transport. Nice place to have a little wander. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable. There is a little cafe/ gift shop to stop for refreshments. Definitely worth a visit.

Fantastic day out with kids and Free! The buildings and machinery still there are interesting. Never heard of a beam engine! Some of the Information signs have been vandalised unfortunately however there is a phone number to call to listen to the information of each site. Definitely worth a visit!!!
