  • Tip Rating:
  • Entrance is FREE to members of English Heritage, National Trust and Great British Pass Holders. Fortunately our daughter had both a National Trust and English Heritage passes. Otherwise for UK passport holders it is:

    Adult £5.00
    Child (5-15) £2.50

    For Overseas Visitors Pass (OVP) (non-UK passport holders) 7 Day Pass - Adult £12.00

    There doesn't seem to be an option for an OVP to go for just one day.

    Admission includes a free complimentry audio tour
    (available in: Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Spanish, Swedish and Russian)
    10% discount for parties of 11+ paying as a group. You can also get a live person as a guide on site.

    Unfortunately for us, it was a very crowded day and they were out of the audio tours or else the batteries had run down.

    Directions: Follow the A303 ALL the way untill you reach a roundabout. Go straight over this and 2 miles on you will need to bear right onto the A344 and the car park is on the right hand side about 500 metre

     Yes, I remember sitting on the stones inside Stonhenge when I was a boy.
