We aim to cater for the needs of all visitors in this 26-bed hostel; a 2-storey building which is set in the picturesque surroundings of Boscastle Harbour. We have one ground floor room which is accessible with an accessible en-suite bathroom. This can be seen on the virtual tour.
Room 5 is a 6-bedded accessible room (double bed with a single bunk over, a set of bunks and a single bed) with an accessible en-suite bathroom. The bathroom is fitted with horizontal and vertical grab rails around the toilet and sinks, low washbasin with lever taps and an emergency cord. Transfer onto the toilet is left handed. There are also grab rails in the shower, along with a fold down shower chair.
When travelling as a wheelchair user, or with a wheelchair user, finding accessible holiday accommodation will be at the very top of your list.
There are several things you’ll need to look out for. While space to move around and transfer into and out of bed is vital, there’ll be all sorts of other things you’ll want to see too. Disabled holiday accommodation with wet room facilities or a roll-in shower with shower seat is a must. And then there’s accessibility around the rest of the building. Can you easily wheel into reception and to your room without help? Are the restaurant and bar or self-catering facilities on level ground? Can you reach the car park or local transport links without encountering steep hills, steps or cobbles?
While hotels and self-catering holiday cottages can be a great choice for disabled access holidays, hostels are also well worth considering.
