House of Marbles, Bovey Tracey, Devon, TQ139DS


House of Marbles: At House of Marbles and Teign Valley Glass we have been manufacturing our unusual range of games, toys, marbles and glassware for many years. Visitors are most welcome to wander around the old pottery buildings with their listed kilns, enjoy our museums of glass, games marbles and Bovey Tracey Pottery, watch glass blowing when work is in progress, see our spectacular marble runs, browse in the factory seconds and gift shops and take refreshment in our coffee shop and licensed restaurant.

Apart from special collectable marbles, our glass works make a full range of wine glasses, vases, scent bottles etc. Watch our skilled craftsment blowing paperweights and shaping glass when work is in progress. Three museums explain the history of glass, board games and marbles, along with the history of The Bovey Tracy Potteries with a large collection illustrating the work that went on here from the 1700's.

Children will also enjoy playing marbles on our outdoor marble ring, and find amusements such as the snoring bear. Rain or shine, a visit to House of Marbles can turn into a very full day out.

Glassmaking demonstrations can be watched Monday to Friday from 9am - 4. 30pm, Sundays 10am - 3pm from Easter to the end of September. .
