This is an absolute joy. I found the museum via a 'Time Out' magazine. I would highly recommend anyone mildly interested in London and the people/philanthropists who used to live there. His collection of paintings and artifacts is marvellous. Well worth a visit and in the same area of Lincolns Fields is a very nice park AND the Museum attached... More

Strange collection in some beautiful attached houses. Worth the visit! And for free. More

If John Soane wasn't mad, he was at least obsessed. Thousands of marble fragments and statues, a very moody cellar room dedicated to a fictional monk, and a claustrophobic writing room are featured. There is also an unrivaled collection of superb Hogarth paintings, including A Rake's Progress. More

Amazing house with eclectic collections of painting, prints and sculpture. Hogarth stands out, but the classical architectural "bits of buildings" and statues are excellent for sketching. Not at all well known and located in one of the pretty grassy areas behind buildings, it is not to be missed if you live or work in London. If you are a holiday... More

This weird collection is housed in a town house on Lincolns Inn Square. It is like visiting an eccentric relative's house - one who collects everything. Some very interesting items....a great place to idle away a couple of hours More

There are two main problems I had with the place the first is that all most nothing is labeled so you really have no idea what... More

A truly fascinating small museum in which every square inch contains an interesting exhibit. This should be near the top of your "to do" list. Memorable. More

Having the possibility to visit the house where one of the major London neo-classic architects lived, and worked at the end the 18th century. He designed the building of the Bank of England and the interior of 10 Downing Street. His office is really amazing. Very few place to move between sarcophagi, statues, columns. What a strange atmosphere in his... More
