The men of Rohan at the time of the War of the Ring had a fair measure of fear and ignorance about Lorien.

But surely geography works against this ?

Any citizen of Rohan living in the Wold would be a lot closer to Lorien than they were to Edoras . With their close proximity to Lorien, would they not have had SOME dealings with the elves or at least have been aware of Galadriel's stance against Dol Guldur and Sauron ?
