Fascinating museum with original artifacts from the day of Grace Darling. It also holds the original boat that was used in the rescue as well as the journal kept by Grace's father. The one issue that we had was that we had planned on parking across the street as was mentioned on the website, but the lot was closed. And the street parking was all taken. We ended up in the Pay & Display lot across from the castle. We were fortunate to have arrived early, because as we were returning to the car, there were no open spaces available. This was on a Tuesday in mid-September. So, be sure to have a back-up parking plan when you visit. We found the museum to be well worth climbing the hill from the lot to visit.

This museum is not very big but tells story of Grace Darling really well,cobble Grace and her Father rowed that night to rescue 7 survivors is amazing. Really worth visit. No entry fee but donations gratefully accepted. Memorial is in Church across the road.

A small RNLI museum dedicated to showing the life and deeds of the Victorian heroine Grace Darling. It's small but well curated, with exhibits from her life and times. It also houses the coble, the small rowing boat in which she and her father undertook the rescue of 9 survivors of a shipwreck. It's well worth a visit. Opposite the museum the church of St Aidan is worth a visit in its own right but Grace Darling's grave and memorial are in the church graveyard.

We were really looking forward to visiting the Grace Darling Museum and although the RNLI tourist leaflet states it is open all year around it's not open on Saturday or Sunday. However if you cross the road to St Aidan's church there is a memorial to her inside the church which is open and a lovely church to walk around.
