What code do I need to imput to book tickets for the tour of Thornborough henges. I can’t seem to book. Very frustrating!
Hi Fran, the promo code relates to discounts off English Heritage membership rather than against any one specific English Heritage setting. We at Topdogdays are independent of English Heritage – we simply let you know where the deals can be found. You may wish to visit the English Heritage site over at Thornborough Henges.
I am a member ofEnglish Heritage. What is the cost of visiting Parham please
Hi David, unfortunately Parham does not come under English Heritage Membership nor is it listed as an associated attraction that picks up discounted entry. There are senior discounts available for those over 60 or alternatively you can gain free entry with Historic House membership or as a partner garden with RHS membership at select times of the year, Liz
I am a member of EH
How do I receive a voucher to take a friend to an EH site?
Hi Julia, there is currently a National Trust promotion running where up 1 adult/4 children or 2 adults/3 children can gain free access – this voucher can be used at select NT property up to 20 October 23. I’m not aware of any similar promotion running at Englush Heritage sites, hope that helps, Liz
I’m disabled and need my cater with me. Can I use a wheelchair and do carers have to pay?
Hi Mary, my understanding is that you can bring companion/helper for free – simply select the ‘essential companion’ ticket if you pre-book. Worth checking the individual English Heritage setting you are looking to visit for information about access – we at Topdogdays are independent of all visitor attractions including English Heritage, (we simply let you know where the deals can be found), Liz.
Hi, Can you use your English Heritage membership card to obtain 2 for 1 entry to Crich Tramway?
Hi Dawn, you can indeed receive discounted tickets for Crich Tramway with English Heritage membership – simply log on to the English Heritage member portal for associated attractions & check out the discounts available to you, Liz
So what is the discount code for Warwick Castle please?
Hi Steve, if you are an English Heritage member, you will be able to go online to your EH members area, and find details of all the associated attractions, Liz
Hello, is Bolsover Castle taking part in the 2 for 1 countrylife offer? When I try to book online and enter my unique code I get an error message saying “Invalid code “
Hi Michael, sorry to hear you are having problems with this 2 for 1 voucher offer for English Heritage. Unfortunately Topdogdays is not involved in the running of this offer, (we simply let you know where the deals can be found), so perhaps best contacting English Heritage directly with your query by emailing customers@english-heritage.org.uk, all the best, Liz
I cannot see where to enter the promotion code for 2for1 entry. The code isCX******** Please advise me . Thank you Gloria
Hi Gloria, sorry to hear you are having difficulties with this English Heritage/Country Life 2 for 1 voucher. You can enter your unique promotional code and email address over at countrylifepromotion.com and they will generate and send you by email your 2 for 1 voucher, hope that helps, Liz
Hello I tried umpteen times to get 2 for 1 entry voucher and nothing seems to be happening I thought this would be good to pay a visit but can not even get in to get voucher print out the set out for this offer as I can see is not in any use for to register totally ridiculous so I think I just give up as offer is no use thanks J Mc Creadie
Hi Jean, sorry to hear you are having so much trouble with this 2 for 1 voucher for English Heritage. Topdogdays is independent of all visitor attractions and promotions, (we just let you know where all the deals and discounts can be found). Worth ensuring you have entered the unique code with no spaces between characters and the upper/ & lowercase is matched and ensure the voucher is valid for use at your chosen English Heritage attraction. If you still can’t get it to work, you can email English Heritage directly at customers@english-heritage.org.uk for further assistance, Liz.
I have been battling with the site which promotes your 2for1 voucher in conjunction with Country Life Butter. There is no where to input the code so that I can receive a voucher. I read the emails from other frustrated people who also had no luck in obtaining a voucher and followed the instructions given but even then found it impossible to see where to input the code .(There was supposed to be a red box which popped up and under which the code could be written – but there was no red box.) Why put forward a promotion which has clearly been so poorly handled? It only makes people just give up and feel that your historical sites are not worth the bother of visiting. In future just organise your promotions properly as ultimately it makes you look bad.
Hi Lucie, sorry to hear you are having trouble redeeming your 2 for 1 Country Life butter voucher for English Heritage. We are Topdogdays are independent of both English Heritage and Country Life butter, (we simply like to let you know where promotions, offers and vouchers are running for top visitor attractions around the UK), so unfortunately do not have any influence over the administration of this promotion. As you can see from the comments, you are not alone, in struggling to redeem this offer. I have taken another look and if you go to countrylifepromotion.com this should take you through to where you can enter your unique code, (you should see a box with a red ‘submit’ tab next to it). Hopefully that helps? Liz
What offers have you got for o.a.p s?
Hi Wendy, look out for the discount senior membership available at English Heritage that is available for those age 65 years & over. Good to know that there is also an English Heritage joint membership offer, (discounted from the standard joint membership price), for a couple where one is under 65 years and the other is 65 years or over.

BARRY BLOUNT
Dear Mr Blount, thank you for your query to Topdogdays regarding your English Heritage membership. We are independent of English Heritage and in this instance I think you would be best emailing English Heritage directly to cancel your membership on customers@english-heritage.org.uk
I am sorry that I have to cancel my English heritage
Hi Denis, unfortunately we at Topdogdays are independent of English Heritage, (we simply let you know where the best EH deals & discounts are to be found), so you will need to contact them directly to discuss cancelling your membership, all the best, Liz
I am a member living in Margate. I have several pensioner friends who would very much like to visit Walmer and Dover Castles. I can provide transport but am wondering if ‘single visit’ entry tickets are available to buy on the day.
Thank you.
Dear Mrs Worfield, thank you for your query to Topdogdays. Whilst we are independent of English Heritage, I am aware that you can buy day tickets to both Dover & Walmer Castles on the door and do not need to be añ English Heritage member to visit. Your friends may wish to look out for concessionary rates for seniors or cheaper adult tickets without the gift aid uplift. All the best, Liz
