Great day out, only thing to be mindful of is whether you have a ticket that's eligible for a full years re-entry. Ours wasn't and we didn't realise when booking but definitely would have gone back.

Neither the iOS website nor the windows desktop software let you make a PDF of anything resembling a ticket you can use of your phone. There is a message telling you that you need to print something to bring with you but it's very hard to figure out where to get it and there are two different formats. One is more than 12 pages long. The other was 5 pages. It took the person at Holyrud House a long time how to process it. She called it a voucher. Please fix this confusion. You should send the document to the customer as an attachment or something that they could download that is a PDF that is clearly labeled at the top that "This is the voucher You need to print." Better yet would be for it to be a PDF you could display your phone that contains all of the voucher information. This problem was unnecessarily stressful and It should not take 15 minutes to check in or for you to print 15 pages of papers.

The palace was beautiful and the audio tour was so much fun with the finding the hidden door or seeing how the palace looked during different times and hearing different voices, such as the gardener.
