The entrance prices at Warwick castle are complicated by a number of factors. One of them is the fact that there are two different car parking charges dependant on where you park. You will also be charged for entrance to the castle at different rates dependant on the time of year. And those charges may or may not include entrance to the Ghosts Alive exhibition dependant on the time of year.

Then there are seven different prices dependant on your status: aged under 4, 4 to 16, adult, senior, student, disabled with carer, family ticket. We have never seen such a complicated set of prices at any other attraction, and yes there are different prices for each of those categories!

To top it all, you are encouraged to book online and if you do you will see another very different set of prices. Remember to take into account the booking fee.


  And if that wasn't complicated enough then consider this; there is another option to book open un-dated tickets in all seven categories all again at very different prices. Surprisingly the open undated ticket booked online for the peak season are cheaper than the dated online tickets for the same peak season. Why?!

So, what's the best course of action to get the cheapest ticket prices? Go to the Warwick Castle official site and look at the prices carefully (see the link at the bottom of this page). If you can book online then do so. With the exception of the price for a single person (minor differences only), booking online is significantly cheaper. Also look carefully at the option of booking an open undated ticket online, that is often even cheaper.

For example, in peak season, a family ticket booked at the gates will cost you £55.00. If you book an online dated ticket the cost will be £49.50 plus a £1.50 fee. Book an online undated ticket and the price will be £40.00 plus a £1.50 fee. Online tickets can be sent via email (up to two hours) and printed on your PC / MAC immediately.

The lesson is to look at the official prices page very clearly and explore all the options. Click here for the official Warwick Castle ticket price pages.

Official car parking is currently £3 per car. There is anything between an 8 to 15 minute walk from the car park to the castle entrance depending on the time of day you visit and how fast you can walk. You need to pay for the parking near the castle gates. Best to do that on your way in. If you leave it to when you leave and forget, you will need to walk all the way back again to get an exit ticket. Not funny on a hot day!

One final word of advice. At peak times especially, the supermarkets, newspapers and other outlets often have 2 for 1 vouchers available. Keep your eyes peeled for them, they are worth up to £34.
