Choosing the Standard Admission with Gift Aid option makes a huge difference to Charities such as ours. It enables us to claim tax back from the Government and helps us to conserve, restore and develop the Gardens for future generations of visitors. You will be asked to pay Gift Aid admission unless you request otherwise. If you would prefer to pay Admission without Gift Aid, please advise our staff at the till point.
Buggy Trips: £4.00 per person plus Gardens admission. It generally takes 45 minutes to complete the circuit (£4.00) except for busy days in May when a 30 min service is likely to be in operation (£3.50). Duration of tours will be at discretion of buggy team. Buggies seat up to 7 persons plus the driver.
