Allotment costs

Allotments are not expensive to rent, costing £15 to £46 a year, depending on location and facilities.

If you are State pension age, or in receipt of a qualifying benefit, you would be entitled to a Go CV+ discount which would reduce the rental cost even more. Sign up for a Go CV card.
