Florence Nightingale Experience
Step back in time and uncover the fascinating connection between Florence Nightingale—the iconic Lady with the Lamp—and the distinguished Gascoigne family of Lotherton Hall.
Join us for an exclusive experience that begins with an introductory tour of Lotherton Hall, exploring its rich heritage and elegant interiors. Discover the remarkable links between Florence Nightingale and the Gascoigne family.
This special event offers a rare opportunity to view personal objects belonging to Florence Nightingale, items seldom seen by the public, bringing her story vividly to life.
Conclude your visit in style with tea served in the Hall’s historic drawing room, a setting steeped in tradition and charm.
Cost includes general admission to Lotherton Estate, where you can enjoy the beautiful gardens and grounds and visit Wildlife World. Why not make it a full day out and have lunch in the café?
