Farmhouse occupied by the Burn family for nearly 300 years. Come and see how the family lived, worked and played here during the later Victorian era - Farmhouse kitchen, parlour, bedroom, dairy and wash-house. Outside there are craft workshops, a barn and a Victorian street scene. Also local history displays, Victorian School Room and the definitive collection of Hornsea Pottery. Great little shop and a relaxing garden.
