    Lovely Loos

    This is the second part of our rundown of memorable loos you shared with us. In the last blog we looked at the places with Changing Places toilets, this time we'll cover places with accessible toilets only.

    As we mentioned last time, this is just a bit of fun and a nice way to talk about places we remember for the right reasons. Many of the places featured in the list are currently closed. Please remember to follow Government guidelines and check that the venue is open before visiting.

    Some Stand Out Accessible Loos

    1. Sandy Bell’s****, Edinburgh

    An accessible toilet with light walls and white grab rails. The toilet has a stand out seat that is meant to look like  cheese with a mouse crawling in it.An accessible toilet with light walls and white grab rails.

    Ambassador Kayleigh suggested this one, and it wasn’t just the toilet seat that made it memorable! “I like when I'm surprised by an accessible toilet. This pub is quite small so I assumed the toilet would be small and difficult to use… I was taken aback first by the seat, but then realised that the room was almost a third of the size of the whole bar. Plenty space to move around, red cord was hanging properly and the handrails were sturdy and in the best places.”

    2. Vapiano****, Edinburgh

    A great suggestion from our Ambassador Karine, she said: “There was so much space, I did doughnuts to prove it and didn't hit anything! Well laid out with grab bars and red cord that touched the floor.”

    3. Norwich Theatre Royal

    People have praised the location of the accessible toilets at Norwick Theatre Royal. They have also said that there is plenty of space to move around inside the accessible toilet or have an assistance dog or carer in with you.

    4. Black Ivy****, Edinburgh

    Reviewers have complimented the size and design of this accessible toilet. The wall and floor tiles do make it look very stylish!

    5. Muddy Boots****, Balmalcolm

    Finally, we have this accessible toilet in Fife which was put forward for being clean and spacious. What’s more, reviewers appreciate that the baby changing was kept separate freeing up the accessible toilet to be used by disabled people.
