I visited here with my daughter in law and we both had such an enjoyable afternoon. It was extremely interesting and is such a lovely place to visit. The history that envelopes this house and the garden where Sir Isaac Newtons apple tree stands just really took my breath away. The people working there were all so knowledgeable and friendly and it was so interesting to discover some amazing facts about the family that made that part of history what it is. I would definitely recommend a visit.

It's quite a few years since I've been here and things have changed. You need to book in advance to be guaranteed entry into the house as it's now timed. You can wander round the small garden, look at the apple tree and eat in the cafe (light snacks only) if you arrive early. The house itself hasn't really changed much. There's an introductory film and then you can wander at will unless on the guided tour. Room guides will fill in any details about each room. The car park is now across the road, a short walk from the entrance.

A fabulous birthday for my little Isaac Newton fan! I was not sure what to expect as there are mixed reviews but we could not be happier with how the morning went. The staff were absolutely lovely and informative to the 5 7-8y old children who had plenty of questions about the house, Isaac and the little science museum. The children were fascinated by the house. The science rooms were full of hands on experiments and the member of staff kindly explained some of them and added in a few. There were bags of experiments that they could take out to the courtyard and experiment with as well as the sun dial. Such a good idea. Just a couple of suggestions would be to have a few more lower priced items in the gift shop and think of selling the experiment bags. I am not sure they were supposed to but the children found the old outside toilet and were fascinated so you could make something of this as well 😂. All in all a great morning out. Thank you for having us!

Visited on our way home from Lincoln for almost 2 hours. Interesting National Trust property. There is a short introduction about Sir Isaac Newton. The display in each of the rooms was remarkable. There was centuries old graffiti behind glass screens that had been preserved on various walls within the house. The interactive Science room was particularly amazing. All the volunteers were great in providing information about the house, the Newton family and the science developed by Isaac Newton.

Went today, as daughter covering Issac Newton at junior school at the moment. 1.5 hour drive. Loved it all. Great place. Very friendly staff in the restaurant, visitor centre & House. Also a big shout out to the lovely, friendly and polite gentleman who was running the science exhibition. He had so much time to show our daughter things, especially getting the little bags spinning on the wheel. Nice day out and educational. Thanks

We were staying nearby and booked a guided tour on Monday 29th April, our guide was Lynn, who was very knowledgeable, and made the hour tour very interesting. We had been many years ago and just walked from room to room but on this occasion we learnt so much about Sir Issac Newton. He was born on Christmas day 1642. He was premature and not expected to live, but he beat all the odds and lived into his 80s. I could go on and on with all the fascinating facts we were told, but I would spoil it for you. You get to see the apple tree 🌳 and learn how indirectly he went to the moon, but again I won't tell you, to find out do the tour, you can then enter again after 1ish when it's free flow to take your photos

Awesome place. The house has a real special vibe to it. It’s amazing to see the house and the apple tree too. Aside from the house and tree the science centre has an array of activities to peak kid’s interest. I would advise booking in advance and arriving early.

Isaac Newton's Woolsthorpe Manor would be well worth visiting if it was simply an old house in almost original condition, set in beautiful rolling English countryside. But the way in which the National Trust honours Newton's life and achievements there is brilliant. The guide who showed us around the house and garden (complete with THE tree) was excellent. it was very moving to read some of Newton's diary entries and experience the prism splitting light in his own bedroom. The two volunteers helping to interpret the hands-on equipment demonstrating Newton's discoveries in the converted out-building were also excellent, and really made the principles of the science accessible. Also an excellent cafe - full marks for offering a choice of jams with the scones (not just the ubiquitous strawberry)!

A lovely experience. Ideal for children too. Lots of interesting things to see. Nice change from going round stately homes and to see how other people lived. Guides gave a good insight into Newton and his life.

This unprepossessing farmstead hides a wealth of history about one of our greatest thinkers, Sir Isaac Newton, so prepare to be mightily impressed. We were welcomed at the door of the Manor house and ushered into the parlour where a short film narrated by Hannah, his mother really captured the singular nature of a boy who was going to change the world through his own investigations. Her world was explained by religion, but Newton knew otherwise. Lucky he was a boy, as a girl would never have been allowed to pursue her own interests- a fascinating discovery and well worth the pilgrimage to visit it !
