Gift Aid Admission Charges

Great Dixter operates the Gift Aid Admission scheme. Under this scheme, visitors to the House and Gardens are offered a choice of two entry tickets:

Standard Admission or Gift Aid Admission
The Gift Aid Admission includes a voluntary donation of 10% of the standard fee which is a requirement of HMRC for day tickets. Gift Aid Admissions enable the Great Dixter Charitable Trust to reclaim tax on the whole amount paid* - an extra 25% - potentially a very significant boost to property funds.

Money raised from this scheme goes towards vital conservation and restoration projects at the property. Payment of the additional 10% donation is entirely voluntary, so if you prefer to pay the standard admission please advise our reception staff at the till point.

Frequent visitors who choose to purchase an Annual Ticket may also wish to Gift Aid* their payment. We are not required by HMRC to ask for an additional 10% donation for Annual Tickets.

*Gift Aid donations must be supported by a valid Gift Aid declaration and a Gift Aid declaration can only cover donations made by an individual for him/herself or for him/herself and members of his/her famiy. Gift Aid declaration forms are available at the ticket kiosk and take two minutes to complete.

Thank you for supporting the Great Dixter Charitable Trust.
