‘We’re Good To Go’ Certificate

Amberley Museum has been awarded with the ‘WE’RE GOOD TO GO’ certificate by Visit England.

This verifies that we have followed government and industry COVID-19 guidelines, ensuring processes are in place to maintain cleanliness and aid social/physical distancing.

Our Museum Staff and Volunteers have been working extremely hard over the last few months to achieve this.

We reopen on the 25th-26th July for an exclusive Members-only weekend and the 29th July to the wider public.

Go to our COVID-19 visiting information page for more details on what to expect when you visit.

Pre-booking is required, book your tickets here.
