Discover your own ideal spots to stay.
Although
magazines are useful, the internet provides the easiest
access to the widest range of up-to-date information about
places to visit and places to stay.
Typically the biggest challenge to accessing information on
the internet is searching for the best websites. We have
researched the Internet to provide you with links throughout
this series that will take you directly to quality websites
where you will be able to view, explore, and print off
information of interest to you.
How to enjoy free
visits to historic castles, gardens and places of historic
interest with The National Trust:
If you plan to visit historic grand houses and other
properties managed by the
National Trust
we recommend that you pay
the 60 pounds or so to become a
member giving you access on concession or even free of
charge.
You can
join on the Internet
from home before you leave home.
You will soon have paid more than the joining fee after you
have visited one or two national trust properties if you are
not a member.
The National Trust cares for over 248,000 hectares (612,000
acres) of beautiful countryside in England, Wales and
Northern Ireland, plus almost 600 miles of coastline and
more than 200 buildings and gardens of outstanding interest
and importance
Whilst you may doubt your interest, once you start touring
you will encounter many National Trust properties that you
would like to visit but you may pass these opportunities on
account of the cost if you are not a member
The
Great British
Heritage Pass
also gives
you free entry to a great range of locations.
