We are taking bookings for group visits in 2025 and 2026.
We consider a group to be 10 people or more making a single payment.
We understand that organising a group can take a lot of work and we are happy to hold provisional dates for as long as possible. We do not require a deposit.
We recommend 60-90 minutes to complete your free-flow visit. There are knowledgeable stewards on hand to provide a 5-minute introduction and answer questions.
We can offer guided tours out of hours, subject to group size (minimum 10, maximum 22 people) or a minimum fee of £120 and curator availability. Tours last 90 minutes, seating is available throughout.
Reserved coach parking is available in the car park which also has plenty of room for individual cars.
The Tea Room can provide lunch and refreshments for groups booking in advance. Please contact them on tearoom@munningsmuseum.org.uk
If you have any further questions or requirements then we are happy to help.
