Weekday Tours - May to September
These tours are available at 11am from May to September on Thursdays and Fridays.
No need to book, simply turn up and wait outside Abbot's Hospital main entrance for your guide!
Visitors are able to see the COMMON HALL, originally used as a sitting and dining area by the residents and the CHAPEL, with its superb stained glass windows.
Tours last about 45 to 50 minutes.
For 2019 the first Weekly Tour will commence at 11 am on Thursday 2nd May 2019. The last Weekly Tour in 2019 will be on Friday 27th September 2019.
£5 per person, under 16s free of charge.
Saturday Tours - once a month
We also have a Saturday tour once a month. For 2019 the designated Saturdays for an 11am tour are on 18th May, 8th June and 13th July. There is no Saturday tour in August. In September the Saturday tour date is 14th September, which is Heritage Saturday.
Group Tours
These must be booked in advance but can be arranged Monday to Friday (and, with plenty of notice, sometimes Saturday) at any time during the year. Group Tours can be tailored to particular interests and can offer an opportunity to see areas of the Hospital not available during Weekday Tours or Open Days.
Please contact Michael McKechnie, at master@abbotshospital.org or on 01483 455591, to discuss availability.
£6 per person (minimum 6 people).

No charge is normally made for educational visits.
