Description
**Please note that in light of Government measures to combat the spread of the coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic, the five Shakespeare family homes have closed to visitors until further notice. Updated 20 March 2020**
Follow in the footsteps of Shakespeare and visit his family homes – from the house he grew up in to his grand family home where he lived for almost 20 years!
The ‘Five Home Ticket’ allows single entry to each of the five Shakespeare Family Homes across Stratford-upon-Avon and is the perfect starting point for exploring Shakespeare’s works, family, life and times. The ticket is activated upon entry to the first property and is valid for 72 hours.
Please note that Mary Arden’s Farm closes over the winter months (from 3rd November 2019 – Spring 2020). If visiting in the winter please choose the ‘Winter Four Home Ticket’ instead.
The ticket also offers a substantial saving against the individual single entry property ticket prices.
