This is a great offer from CSSC and saved us roughly £30 on this trip for 2. We went to see the Indonesian orchid display and were not disappointed. Will definitely be returning and taking advantage of the savings again.
Great addition to the CSSC offer. I attended with two 4 year olds and a 2 year old and everyone had a good time. Children’s playground is great, if there’s no prebookable spaces left arrive early and try to book at the ticket office. We did and got spaces for the kids. We had a full on day but still didn’t get to do everything so we’ll be going back in the summer.
Lovely day last Sunday
So pleased to see Kew Gardens added to the benefits for CSSC membership. Even on a cold winters day in winter, this is a lovely place to explore. There is even shelter in the greenhouses if it rains!
Fab to go to Kew Gardens for free and be able to take my husband for half price. There's so much to do I could go every day for a month and not do the same things twice. Also, the gardens are forever changing. It's the gift that keeps on giving. Thank you so much
