What was particularly good about our visit was the thought that has been given to making a site accessible for someone in a wheelchair, and then the outstanding helpfulness of staff when we got there, also of course if any one has not been to Down House I would definitely advise them to put it on their bucket list, not only very interesting but you can actually get into the rooms to see everything in detail and also the written guide is really well set out so that you can use this as well as the audio guide.

Excellent on-line service for overseas visitors to England.

We live in Australia and have a 16 day pass on English Heritage during Sept. We needed some help with booking Stonehenge on our pass that will not be activated until we get to UK. WE requested and received
instructions and was supplied a promo number that I was able to us to book us for our preferred time.
This was excellent service.

Great customer service

Easy to arrange family membership online. I need a carer and rang English Heritage Customer Services to discuss arrangements. I got through almost immediately and spoke to Riannon, who was super-helpful and clearly explained everything to me.
First class customer support is a rare thing nowadays and this was up there with the best.
Many thanks Riannon and English Heritage

The organisation and customer service…

The organisation and customer service of the eht really works like a charm.
The site itself (Stonehenge) turned out to be overrated and overcrowded (yes, I’m aware that I’m part of the problem).
