Legoland - car park charge to be introduced

[Anonanonuk]

If any of you go to Legoland, I thought you might be interested to know that they are going to start charging to use their car parks!
More details below from the Legoland June Newsletter:

'This season, LEGOLAND Windsor will be introducing a nominal charge for its car parks, this is in line with other major tourist attractions in the UK.

Annual Passholders will not have to pay the car park fee throughout 2010.

The revenue raised from car parking will be invested back into the Park. Over the next five to ten years £30 million will be invested into the Park to ensure its continued future success. As part of the investment programme, all of LEGOLAND Windsor?s guest car parks will benefit from additional security features.

New developments include an exciting new attraction scheduled to open in 2011 and an on-site 150 bedroom hotel offering families the ultimate sleepover destination in 2012'.

Does that include blue badge holders?

I'm not sure. I'll email them and find out for you.

I got an email back from Legoland. Blue badge holders and annual pass holders will be free. Everyone else it is likely to be £1 per car. The scheme hasn't been finalised yet. They may be doing a trial late June/early July.

It really annoyed me when alton towers started this.

£5! And its in the middle of nowhere, not as if you'd park there and pop to the shops!
