All groups must book in advance. This allows group leaders and Museum staff to tailor the visit to the group’s needs and interests.

A few points to consider when planning your visit to the Soane:

• everything in the Museum is on open display. Visitors will be asked not to touch by staff in each room
• alhtough there are places to sit down in most rooms, there are many antique chairs in the rooms which cannot be sat on
• the Museum has uneven flooring
• the walls of the Museum are covered with objects, some of which are loose
• some areas of the Museum are very dark and/ or narrow
• some areas of the Museum have grilles in the floor, through which you can see the floor below
