Bressingham Steam Experience and Gardens Bressingham Steam Experience and Gardens

Take a step back in time to the power and romance of the age of steam, with one of Europe’s leading collections of steam locomotives, traction and stationary engines and vehicles, or climb aboard for over five miles of narrow-gauge steam rides through beautiful woodland and gardens. For children large and small, take to the saddle on Bressingham’s magnificent ‘Gallopers’, the beautifully preserved Victorian roundabout that is a centerpiece at Bressingham. Not forgetting beautiful walks traverse Bressingham’s world famous gardens – and no visit is complete without exploring the official “Dad’s Army” exhibition! Relax and unwind with a picnic in the Gardens, or try one of two restaurants, including one at award-winning garden centre Blooms of Bressingham, where you’ll find plants, gifts and everything for the garden before its time to go home!
