Can I purchase the Great British Heritage Pass at London Heathrow airport?
I procrastinated in planning this trip. We leave Thr. 4/23 and won't have time to order online.
We arrive at LHR Friday 4/24 around 11:30am. From there, we were going to hit Blenheim Palace on our way to our B&B in Chipping Campden via rental car.
Where can I buy the Heritage Pass? The website only tells you how to order online.
Many thanks!
This their UK customer helpline number. You will have to add the Int'l dialling code.
0870 242 9988.
As far as I'm aware it cannot be bought in the UK. You could order it on-line and collect it over here.
Ask about the 2 for 1 special. It applied to the 4 day pass when we purchased ours online...now we each have 8 days worth of pass for the price of a 4 day pass. Good luck.
Yes, you can buy the pass in the UK (I got them in London). They are available at major Tourist Information Centres. If the Heathrow Info Ctr doesn't have them, they should be able to tell you where to get them. I would guess that you could get them in Oxford for sure.
It seems I was wrong, found some info from 2008 that says you can buy it here. If this is still the case you will need to show your passport so that the number can be recorded against the Pass. This is to prevent UK citizens from buying the Pass, we are not elegible.
Since you are going to go to Blenheim Palace, you should be able to get your Heritage Pass there. That way you don't have to stop elsewhere on your way to the B&B. What B&B are you staying at in Chipping Campden. My husband and I stayed in Broadway at the Crown and Trumpet Pub/B&B. We loved the Cotswolds, but then we loved all of England and Wales. Let's hear from you when you return.
