Museum introduces local discount for winter months

A museum in Somerset is offering local residents discounted entry this winter to help boost visitor numbers during its off-season.

From November to January, people with BA, BS, TA, DT, and SP postcodes will be eligible to receive a 30% reduction on all tickets when they present valid proof of address.

Tickets are valid for a year, and visitors can return as often as they like.

General manager Marc Farrance told BBC Bristol: “We start to get quieter throughout that November, December, January period.

“The ability for us to try and bring extra visitation when we ourselves would normally be quiet, at the same time trying to reward local people [is] a good combination and one we’re always happy to venture.”
