RSPB Free Entry ( Birders Question)

We used Arne(winter watch) rspb in October last year and the lovely staff advised that only a couple of sites charge for entry ,and cc members get BOGOF on those and free parking at all sites,just get a  parking permit from the staff,

JVB66 You must really like Arne - you go there a lot LOL

We mainly visit the RSPB sites whilst away in the caravan during Spring/Summer/Autumn but usually fit in a trip to RSPB Conwy about 40 miles from home. During those periods we are touring for around 15 weeks. I suspect that we typically visit 5 sites + Conwy sites and so the two of us go at least 5 times a year. I pay £45 a year as we did not know how much we would use it on our travels. So I am bit of a cheapskate really. 

JV, you certainly are a 'twitcher'

Ah that might be why it doesnt show up as free to cc members it is free to everyone. So probably the sites that are listed on cc website as free are the ones that charge for entry and the other sites are free to everyone.

If you don't have an RSPB card then there is a ticket machine at the entrance to the path to reception for car parking.  If you park somewhere else outside the reserve you may have a long walk along the beach or the busy road.  I have left my CC card on the car dash at Titchwell before and never had a problem

Hi S2SAP and others.

I have looked at the Member offers with regard to RSPB.

You are correct in that 174 of the RSPB sites are publicly accessible.

They have 203 nature reserves in total and as a Club Member, you get free entry for two adults and two children when you visit.

Entry to many RSPB reserves does not require an entry fee so the offer is only valid where an entry fee or parking fee is charged.
