We are now operating a timed ticketing system
ALL visitors including Westonbirt, Bodenham and Hillier and RHS members are required to book a time slot in advance (this includes accompanying children who will have to pay the standard child admission rate if aged 4yrs+). This saves disappointment of being turned away if we are fully booked.
PLEASE NOTE: Free entry to RHS members is not applicable at Batsford during October and November, standard admission rates apply.
We no longer accept Gardeners World 2 for 1 vouchers.
Batsford Members:
If you’re a current Batsford member you DO NOT need to book a timed slot and can visit any day, just show your membership card on arrival as normal.​ Anyone with you (apart from children under the age of 17) will need to book.
The visitor centre - where you’ll find the Cafe, Garden Centre and Gift Shop - is completely free to come and have a look around, enjoy a meal or browse our beautiful gift shop. The only part of Batsford you have to pre-book and pay to go into is the Arboretum.
