Osborne Tickets and Dates

Osborne, Isle of Wight

Osborne is now running winter opening hours, with Swiss Cottage, the nursery and the top floor of the house closed to the public while vital conservation work takes place. From the 9th November to the 14th March (excluding between Christmas and New Year and February Half Term), access to the house will be by guided tour only. Tours are capacity limited so we recommend booking in advance to secure your preferred timeslot. Please select the correct amount of tickets for the number of people in your party. Plan to arrive at site at least 15 minutes before your booked tour time to give you time to get to the meeting point.

More Information about Osborne



Once you choose your arrival date, you’ll receive your booking confirmation by email. Just bring this with you on the day you visit, either on your mobile device or as a print out. The email will contain a barcode that our team will scan when you arrive.

You are booking a day ticket and can arrive at any time within our opening hours, and stay for as long as you like.

Some of our sites can get very busy, especially on Bank Holidays. Our busiest times are between 11am and 2pm, so if you prefer to visit at a quieter time you may wish to visit outside of these hours. Your booking is for the site/event only and does not guarantee a car parking space, which may carry an additional charge.

Last admission is 30 minutes before the site closes.

You don't need to book your visit in advance, but you will always get the best price and guaranteed entry by booking online ahead of your visit. You can book your advance ticket online up to 8.45am on the day you want to visit. Then, subject to availability, there will be walk up tickets available. The prices shown here include a discount. The admission price will be higher if you choose to pay on the day you visit.

Relax in the open air as you wander rolling acres of the magnificent Osborne estate. Take in the riotous colours of the walled garden, or enjoy the peaceful shade of the woodland walk. Visit Victoria and Albert's bathing beach for a glimpse of royal family life. Stroll through the garden terraces and take in the same stunning views across the Solent that once reminded Prince Albert of the Bay of Naples.
