Meet the Ghosts of Wollaton Hall

Friday 29 June - 29 Jun 18

In this behind the scenes tour, there will be no gimmicks or fancy dress. The tour is lead by Kath George, a full time front of house assistant responsible for the unlocking and locking of the building. She has met some of the former residents, as have her colleagues both still in the service and those long gone.  This tour brings in the stories of real encounters with the unexplained happenings of Wollaton hall, and we will even give you a glass of wine to steady your nerves.

 

Tickets are £18.70 per person.

Car parking charges apply.
