Named after the famous British Prime Minister, Gladstone is a blend of natural beauty and historical richness. The city pays homage to William Ewart Gladstone who, although being the son of a wealthy slave owner, grew to gain a massive following by championing for equality of opportunity and opposing trade protectionism. Remembered as 'The People's William' and 'G.O.M' (Grand Old Man), his extensive political career marked by impressive milestones and resilient reformative policies left an everlasting imprint on British society.

Born in Liverpool and educated at the venerable institutions of Eton College and Christ Church, Oxford, Gladstone developed a reputation for his strong opinions - on topics ranging from slavery and opium trade to the coal and railway industry. Just like its namesake, the city of Gladstone embodies strength, diversity and a ceaseless spirit of growth, making it an ideal destination for anyone eager to experience a unique fusion of history, culture, and nature.

When to visit Gladstone

Despite these months being popular amongst tourists, February and March see a slight dip in the crowd, earmarking them as the 'low season'. Travellers looking for a tranquil getaway can take advantage of fewer tourists and potentially more affordable accommodation rates during this period.
