Why Aren’t All Devon Attractions Taking Part?

Some of Devon’s Top Attractions already offer free admission, while others are VAT exempt, meaning they do not charge VAT on admission tickets.

As the Great British Summer Savings is based on a temporary reduction in VAT, these attractions cannot pass on a saving where no VAT is charged. Many still offer outstanding value through free entry, annual passes or their own special offers and promotions.

Before You Visit

Offers vary between attractions, with some providing discounted admission tickets and others reducing the cost of children’s meals.
