Grade I listed 19th Century almshouses, surrounded by tranquil gardens in Hoxton, minutes north of the City. The Geffrye Museum explores home and home life from 1600 to the present day through a series of evocative period London living rooms and gardens. The museum's green and peaceful setting and central location make it an ideal venue for receptions, cocktail parties, press launches, photo shoots and meetings.

The Studio is a versatile space for a range of events. Combined of 2 flexible areas, the main space is fully equipped with AV (projector, screen, sound system and microphones), and accommodating 80-100 guests, this is a wonderful room for corporate meetings, film clubs, memorials, or pop-up exhibitions alike. While it also makes an ideal space for social events due to its white walls and high ceilings - perfect for personalisation.
The second area of the Studio is a lobby area, which joins the main room and leads into the Gardens Through Time terrace via tall patio doors. The lobby is a natural refreshment area as it can be separated from the main room by a sound proof wall, leaving caterers able to set up your refreshments, lunches, bar etc without disturbing your guests.
During your meeting breaks or for photos at the party, your group will have access to the Gardens Through Time; our planted gardens showing the evolution of garden designs throughout the centuries.

    Visiting the Museum of Home in London was an unforgettable experience! The level of detail in each house setting was simply fantastic. I've never quite seen anything like it. It’s not just a museum—it’s a journey through time, offering a deep dive into the lives, homes, and cultural nuances of Londoners across centuries. I learned so much about how the city developed, the diversity of its people, and how different backgrounds and cultures have influenced the way homes have evolved. Each exhibit felt like stepping into the past and gaining insight into the daily life and history of London. Whether you're a history buff or just curious about home life through the ages, this museum is a must-visit!

    This was a very interesting museum. Different rooms provided insight into various time periods and cultures and helped show how London has changed over time. It was a smaller museum and so felt very manageable - it took us about 45 minutes to move through the different rooms. Maybe not something I'd go out of my way to head to, but if you are in the area or interested in housing and culture, it is well worth checking out.

    As the name says, the museum celebrates how people lived (although pretty much only middle class folk) from 1600 to now, through a series of 'rooms'. Well executed and at Christmas the rooms are decorated in line with the era. The gardens are at least as good, again separated by century since 1600.

    It’s absolutely fantastic. If you have kids is really an interactive way to go. The exhibits are fantastic and the rooms are very well thought out. The gift shop was one of the best I’ve seen in a while. Also recommend the QR codes because you can access more information of the things you are watching.

    Fantastic museum to visit with kids. Very interactive, visually stimulating and just really interesting for all. It’s spread out over the whole listed Georgian building, so keep exploring. We almost missed one of wings. There is a secret den for kids and a relaxing area too. One less star for lack of coffee by the main reception. Parents need it:)
