AbbotsfordThe Home of Sir Walter Scott

Enjoy free admission to Abbotsford's historic house from March to December and a 10% discount in our shop and café.

Due to historic house closure for conservation purposes in January and February, only private paid tours are available. 

Wander through Scott’s study, where his books changed the world, marvel at his magnificent library with its richly carved ceiling, and admire his eclectic and world-class collection of arms, armour and curiosities, aided by our free audio tour.

Your party will also have exclusive afterhours access to Abbotsford's beautiful Walled Gardens and free admission to events taking place during your stay. There is also the option for your party to learn more about Scott and Abbotsford by booking one of our excellent guided tours.
