Thank you for your kind words we are glad you enjoyed your visit. If you did not manage to pick up an events leaflet then you can download one from our website www.gainsborougholdhall.com
Lovely setting for a Christmas craft fair with a varied selection of different crafts on sale . There were mince pies and mulled wine next to a real fire , music and ladies dancing to traditional music (tudor style) very festive indeed . All for the entrance fee of £1 .Bought several items a pine cone wreath , fabric gifts and clay items lots of genuine crafts of good quality . Only downside was a bit chilly and difficult to park nearby .
In the suburbs on the edge of Gainsborough is this amazing old building. Not just a Hall but a whole maze of rooms upstairs and downstairs which give a much better idea of late medieval life than many more famous places. The Hall itself is magnificent and the Kitchen equally interesting. Only quibble is the poor signposting in the town.
Thank you David for your kind words. We hope you will bring the family back for future events.
Have visited the old hall several times but had visitors from Australia during there time in England they visited Scotland London and during there weeks stay with us we visited Lincoln,York, tour of North Yorkshire and several other local places. There opinion was that the old hall was one of the best they had ever seen, They have Audio info so you can learn the history of all the rooms. Well worth a visit.
An absolutely fantastic building, a piece of history relatively unknown outside the area.i would highly recommend a visit.
Wonderful place to visit either for the craft fair as we did or just to go and have a look around the hall it is a beautiful old building.
excellently preserved building with good exhibits, deep history, and ghosts!!set in the centre of Gainsborough, it hosts different things to attract a range of people.
A very interesting place, full if local history and extremely informative. We went on a bright August afternoon and had a fabulous time, really really worth a visit and a great place for children and adults alike
