Travel Reference
In-Depth Information
There are no region-wide, non-transport, discount cards for visitors, but sometimes two or more attractions team up
with joint tickets that allow entry to both. We outline the key savings throughout our On The Road chapters.
Devon and Cornwall have a superb sprinkling of historic buildings and if you are visiting more than three or four
properties, it is worth considering joining a heritage organisation for a year. The
National Trust
(NT; 0870-458
4422;
www.nationaltrustcottages.co.uk
) has an excellent range of properties region-wide; members can park for free at
their car parks too. Annual membership is from £42 for an adult, £70 for two and £73 for families.
English Heritage
(EH; 0870-333 1181;
www.english-heritage.org.uk
) also has a good selection of properties
available in the southwest. Annual adult membership costs £47 (£35 for over 60s) and allows up to six children free
entry; joint adult membership costs £82 (joint senior £56).
