NEW BETTER WAY TO PAY FOR PARKING
Starting on 4th July, Pay by Phone Parking is a quick and secure way to pay for parking at Forestry Commission sites using your mobile phone. Please call 0844 844 9997 and follow the instructions.
Your contribution to the cost of managing the nation's woodlands and forests is vitally important. Every penny raised from parking charges at Forestry Commission sites is reinvested into their management, so this new system has an important part to play in ensuring that parking revenue is collected.

PLEASE NOTE - The enlarged Pantry is now open.

Parking/admission charges:
£7.50 per car, £20 per minibus, £40 per coach (please contact us prior to bringing a coach). A Concession Scheme is available. Please note that the Pay & Display machines only take coins. Unlimited parking with Friends Membership from £40.

Bedgebury National Pinetum was voted Warburton's best picnic spot in the South 2007 and is now up for the 2008 award.
If you'd like to vote for Bedgebury, please visit www.welovebread.co.uk.
