- Jet16353824612Lincoln, United Kingdom1 contributionAlive again at Gunby thanks to volunteers, consideration for mobility problems and glorious gardens!I can’t praise the volunteers enough. I’m disabled now but I felt as if I was really living again. Buggy from carpark to entrance, borrowed a top of the range scooter following a short ‘driving test’. Given a laminated map of which were best routes for the scooter. Nothing was too much trouble. Discovered that in the excitement over the buggy I’d left purse and phone (ie camera) in car but staff insisted it was no trouble to order the buggy to take me to and fro the carpark again. I didn’t go into the house even though the volunteers assured me that they could take me round the ground floor in a wheel chair. I’ve been in when I was able-bodied and I was more interested in gardens and bark of trees in the copse there. The only thing I would advise is avoid the beef and cheese heated sandwich. Full of nasty fatty gristle. Not Gumby’s fault - they are bought in. Meet lots of lovely people in gardens etc. Feel confident now that I can return soon without a companion. Gardens were amazing for end of September.Visited September 2023Travelled with friendsWritten 3 October 2023
- Terry LeakeLincoln, United Kingdom200 contributionsSmall but delightful NT House and GardensOne of the smaller National Trust houses but still full of history and lovely to walk round. The hall itself is a beautifully preserved example of an English country house, with its elegant Georgian architecture and well-preserved interiors. Stepping inside feels like a journey back in time, with each room showcasing a different era of the house's history. The knowledgeable and passionate staff bring the history to life, sharing fascinating stories about the former inhabitants and the house's evolution over the years. However, the true highlight of Gunby Hall is its gardens. The immaculately maintained gardens are a paradise for garden lovers. From the colorful flower borders to the peaceful walled gardens and the enchanting woodland walks, there's a sense of tranquility and natural beauty at every turn. One of the unique aspects of Gunby Hall is its sense of being a family home. It's not overly opulent or overly crowded, which adds to its charm. This allows visitors to feel a connection to the place and its history. The car park is small but there was plenty of spaces when we arrived. Because of it's size, there are timed entries so that you can enjoy walking around the house uncrowded. I don't know the price for entry as we have an NT membership which I thoroughly recommend if you are going to visit 2 or 3 NT places in a space of a year as you can save a fortune. A delightful place to visit and thoroughly recommended.Visited October 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 12 October 2023
- GEF1986Leicestershire, United Kingdom242 contributionsNice VisitWe were planning to just spend a couple of hours here, ended up being there the whole day! Staff were friendly and welcoming, bit of a walk from car park to the main house. There were signs to say a shuttle bus was there, but it wasn't around when we visited. We had to collect timed tickets to get into the house, the volunteer doing the tickets was quite strict and went through a few folders before finding enough tickets for us 45 minutes after we arrived. There was only 4 adults and 2 children, but she couldn't give us the 4 tickets for the slot in the 10 minutes as that "wasn't allowed, because there was 6 of us and not 4" - 2 small children aged 4 and 7 don't take up much space, so those ticket slots were wasted! We arrived at the house and the volunteer there was just calling anyone with tickets in, without checking timings, so it seemed a bit pointless really - he let a family in with later tickets than us because they were waiting. Work being done to the house inside and unfortunately there was no volunteers to open the kitchen / basement area, still nice to look around though. Garden areas nice to explore and we had a great game of hide and seek! Nice day out, just a shame there was no flexibility with tickets on arrival for house!Visited October 2023Travelled with familyWritten 20 October 2023
- Debbie BNottingham, United Kingdom3 contributionsOutstandingHighly recommend, from the gentleman driving you on the buggy to the house, to the helpful staff in each decorated room, thoroughly enjoyable. Staff went over and Bove. The shop in the basement sold beautiful ornaments and guessing g the themes was so much fun.Visited December 2023Travelled with friendsWritten 4 December 2023
- LincolnshireLady0810 contributionsVery well organised Easter trail.Wonderful Easter Trail laid on this Easter. We brought our two little granddaughters (6 & 4) and were very impressed with...............the well laid out Easter trail map, the very welcome free ride up to the house. all the "hands on" activities on the trail. the very welcome free ride back to the cars Gunby is such a lovely setting and we have been before at Easter time with our two grandsons but this year exceeded previous years and so much thought and effort has been put into everything. Many thanks Gunby. The activities had a nod to educating local information but were great fun and I'd recommend a visit and the chocolate egg at the end!!

- adyvalLong Eaton, United Kingdom987 contributionsgreat day outVisited many years ago and again Friday 29th March 2024. We had booked a blue badge parking space and on arrival was directed away from the spaces, then moaned to the man and was redirected back to the blue badge space. We were taken to and from the house by buggy, the driver was brilliant and amusing. the coffees were ok but a long queue. We visited the house and given lots of facts about the history the house being lovely. unfortunately i could not make the stairs but the wife did. the bookshop was brilliant and we did purchase some children's books. Overall a nice visitVisited March 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 1 April 2024
- angvad81 contributionsA relaxing day outDecided to visit Gunby Hall as we enjoy seeing the history and architecture of the stately homes , We were met by a friendly attendant and he explained about the house and gardens and where to go. The entrance price was £10 pounds each which included visiting the house ,gardens and parking , we felt this was very reasonable. There is a reasonable walk up to the house but if you have problems walking there is a buggy that will take you up it will also take wheelchairs. the house is visited on a timed ticket but this was no problem at all , The house is not the grandest we have ever visited and not the biggest but was still well worth seeing, there were several members of staff in the rooms through the house and they were all very friendly and knowledgeable. The gardens were lovely and just starting to all come into bloom with some beautiful blossom on the trees. there is a lovely old church in the grounds which is worth a visit . all in all definitely a lovely day out and well worth the moneyVisited April 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 13 April 2024
- david s30 contributionsJust a few miles, yet a world away from 'Skeggie'Pleasant, well- maintained gardens, smaller than some NT properties. A very interesting house with wonderfully engaging room volunteers, not sugar-coating the history of the families that have lived there, but entertaining with pithy anecdotes! Friendly from the start of the visit at the car park, reception kiosk, and house itself. A bit of an outlier in terms of NT visiting but well worth the detour from the nearest at Tattershall Castle which is wonderful in the extreme.Visited May 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 22 May 2024
- DadandCabCoffs Harbour, Australia1,318 contributionsWell worth a visitThis is a lovely property, of historic interest and with beautiful grounds and gardens but not grand or opulent despite having many historic features. Not all the house is open on all days, dependent upon staffing. Because it’s a small house, entrance numbers are limited by time slot and it seems to rely on volunteers passing on information rather than information cards although there are folders detailing individual items in each room. The walled gardens and orchard were the highlight for me, beautifully maintained and presented. There is also a small art gallery in the orchard plus the usual NT café, shop and second hand books. There’s a lovely outdoor seating area for the café. Highly recommended.Visited May 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 26 May 2024
- Nursie11Nottingham, United Kingdom750 contributionsLovely gardens and really engaging staffVisited here today for the first time. Staff in the house were very informative and friendly. Some of the house is currently closed due to restoration but we knew this before we went. Grounds are lovely with some beautiful, well kept gardens. Little cafe too. Lovely place to visit if you like historic housesVisited June 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 6 June 2024
