#PLEASE NOTE THAT THE NATIONAL TRUST HAS CLOSED ITS PARTNERSHIP SCHEME

We regret to say that we are no longer able to offer National Trust members the promotional discount (National Trust members formally received a 50% discount on standard adult admission). The National Trust took the decision to end the London-wide scheme effective from December 2021. We were sorry to learn of this decision and for any disappointment this may cause.

Please visit this National Trust site for more details about this announcement.

We still very much welcome you all and hope to see you at Dr Johnson's House.
