The accessible bedrooms contain one double bed and bunk beds. All other rooms contain bunk beds unless otherwise stated.

All bathrooms are lit with fluorescent, sensor-activated lighting and have non-slip flooring. All showers have a step up to enter unless otherwise stated. The bathrooms are fitted with lever taps.

Our standard en-suite bathrooms have a WC, washbasin and shower, and the space is quite limited. Our accessible bathrooms are fitted with vertical and horizontal grab rails, emergency cords, lower level sinks and accessible shower.

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.
