Come and look at our world from just inside the Main Gates. Open Monday to Friday from 9am to 4pm. Saturday 9am to 12pm.
Weekday Tours - May to September 2020
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 2020 the first Weekly Tour will commence at 11am on Friday 1st May 2020. Please note, there is no weekly tour on Friday 8th May 2020 due to that date being a Bank Holiday. The last Weekly Tour in 2020 will be on Friday 25th September.
£5 per person, under 16's free of charge.
Saturday Tours - once a month
We also have a Saturday tour once a month. For 2020 the designated Saturdays for an 11am tour are on Saturday 16th May, Saturday 13th June, Saturday 18th July and Saturday 12th September which is Heritage Day Saturday. There is no Saturday tour in August.
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).
