Led by one of our knowledgeable team, a guided visit offers a richer way to experience The Sherborne, from its remarkable interiors and restored spaces to the people, histories and stories that have shaped this singular place.
Guided tours last approximately one hour and are £6 per person. Children under 12 go free.
Each visit begins with a short seated introduction, offering context before your guided tour of the house. For larger groups, we may adapt the format to make sure the experience remains comfortable, welcoming and enjoyable for everyone.
Please select the number of people aged 12+ joining the tour before proceeding to checkout. Children under 12 go free, but please include them in your total group number on the booking form.
