Can I bring my dog?

If you’re arriving by car, the nearest car park is Hobbledown Heath’s car park on Staines Road. This car park is managed by a separate company, and pay stations can be accessed within the car park. Parking costs £1 per hour. Free drop-off and pick-up are allowed provided this is done within 30 minutes. Please see individual machines for more details.

While the main site (Hobbledown Heath) is wheelchair accessible, the tulip field itself has natural terrain that may be uneven and challenging for some guests using wheelchairs.

We ask that you arrive within the timeslot you selected during the booking process. This is to make sure everyone has the best possible experience at the tulip patch.

Please note no under 17s can enter the Tulip Patch without a Ticket holding Adult 18+ accompanying them at all times. 

You are welcome to stay at the patch as long as you like. However, if you are causing any disruption to other guests, we reserve the right to ask you to leave.

With the exception of hazardous weather, the tulip patch will be open rain or shine! We recommend you come dressed for the weather on the day, and ready to experience the wonder of the great outdoors. There will be sheltered areas in case of rain. Come dressed for the weather.

We are a cashless site.
