Bygones Victorian Museum is a heritage attraction in St Marychurch, Torquay, filled with period rooms and displays that offer a proper day-out stop for families and dog owners alike. The museum showcases authentic Victorian and Edwardian living spaces, complete with furnishings, domestic objects and memorabilia spanning around 1.5 to 2 hours of browsing. Well behaved dogs are welcome throughout the museum, which means you don't need to leave your dog at home or plan around awkward door way shuffles.

The venue is situated within easy reach of Torquay's town centre and other local attractions, making it straightforward to slot into a longer day out with the dog in tow.

Admission is charged and visitors can simply pop in at leisure without needing to book ahead. The museum operates with current opening hours listed on its official plan-your-visit pages, so you can time your visit to suit your dog's energy levels and your own schedule.
