I toured the Museum of Old Newbury back in June. This was is a fun and family-friendly excursion. The Cushing House is open Thursday through Sunday, 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m during the regular season of the first Thursday in June through the Sunday of the first full weekend in October. The cost for a guided tour is $10 for adults, $8 for seniors, $5 for youth, and free for both members and residents of the “Old Newbury” towns. Tickets can be purchased in advance on the museum website or in person at the door. Tours are currently limited to ten people, so call ahead if your group is larger. I noticed that tours do not appear to follow a script and must vary widely depending on the guide. Like most historic houses, this museum is not accessible to those with limited mobility. The outdoor section of the museum is free and open to the public between dawn and dusk. Parking for the museum is free on High Street and Fruit Street. I greatly enjoyed my time at the museum and look forward to visiting the gardens again in the future when the weather is less sporadic.

Well, I know I'm a bit biased, but I love this place. And I hear they throw one heck of a Holiday Open House!
