Little ways to save
A family of four riding the chairlift return spends £38 in cash. Three Supersaver books (£36, 45 tickets) cover that and leave 7 tickets for a ride or the adventure golf.
Parking is £7, so the free entry still costs something. Islanders should get the £7 annual permit.
Go before November if you want the chairlift and rides. In winter only the glass studio, shop and cafe are open.
Hours shift with the weather on the cliff top, so call 01983 752 401 on windy days.
