Whether you're planning for your summer break or whizzing off to a last-minute whirlwind Easter holiday, finding the right place to stay can make or break a holiday. At Euan’s Guide, we know how important it is to find somewhere that’s not just accessible but works for your needs. That’s why we’re sharing some of our most-reviewed and well-loved places to stay - according to our community!

From peaceful countryside retreats to coastal favourites, these venues have earned consistent praise from disabled guests, families, and carers alike. And this spring, as we reflect on togetherness and new beginnings, what better time to spotlight some of the most thoughtful, inclusive stays around? Here’s a round-up of some of our most-loved hotels and self-catering getaways.

Homelands Trust-Fife, Lundin Links

“After a succession of disastrous family Christmases, we booked a lodge for 8 here.”

For a family, booking a spacious lodge for eight meant everyone, including powerchair users and neurodivergent guests, could finally relax and enjoy each other’s company. And despite a few very minor niggles (we're talking towel rails and Tupperware), the consensus was unanimous: this place works. If your idea of a good holiday includes family, flexibility, and not feeling cramped, Homelands could be your perfect Easter escape.

Hoe Grange Holidays, Brassington

“The location is stunningly beautiful in the Peak District - for me to be able to have a holiday in the countryside is a godsend.”

With stunning views and a welcome pack that includes homemade bread (yes, really), it’s no wonder Hoe Grange has racked up glowing reviews. This working farm offers purpose-built cabins equipped with everything from profile beds to mobile hoists. Guests praised both the thoughtful design and the willingness of hosts to go the extra mile. Whether you’re after a quiet break or a countryside recharge, Hoe Grange delivers comfort and peace of mind in equal measure.

Thatch Close Cottages, Llangrove

“Beautiful views with nothing to hear other than the birds and the occasional animal.”

Hidden away in the countryside, Thatch Close has the kind of tranquil setting you might daydream about during a busy school holiday. Guests loved the wide doors, rise-and-fall counters, wet rooms, and the warm welcome from hosts Edward and Marion. Whether you're a fan of thoughtful touches like emergency torches and speaking microwaves, or you just want somewhere peaceful where the dog can roam free, this spot hits all the marks.

Our Bench Accessible Self Catering Cottages, Lymington

“The host prepared the cottage exactly as we requested and were so friendly, generous, and helpful.”

Clean, spacious, and thoughtfully equipped, Bench Cottage near the New Forest offers a relaxed base for exploring nearby villages and countryside. One family visiting over the festive period were especially moved when the hosts provided a decorated Christmas tree for their disabled mother-in-law - a gesture that spoke volumes about the level of care here. From track hoists to a handy location, it’s a reliable choice for a year-round retreat.

Summerfield Farm, Whitby

“We love the surrounding countryside and visiting Whitby (where there is a lot to enjoy even avoiding the hilly bits).”

Sometimes simple is best. Summerfield Farm’s Abbey View caravan offers practical, accessible accommodation with all the mod cons: wet room, profiling bed, lowered worktops, and even a veranda for soaking up the views. It’s ideal for guests looking for an easy, breezy coastal base - and reviewers often return year after year. We think it’s the perfect spot to crack open a chocolate egg and watch the world go by.

Crathie Opportunity Holidays, Ballater

“Very well equipped for all levels of disability, but also cosy and comfortable for the whole family.”

Nestled near the River Dee with views of Balmoral Castle, Crathie combines jaw-dropping scenery with unbeatable access. Reviewers raved about the adjustable sink (a first for many!), the helpful staff, and the thoughtful accessibility touches throughout. And if you’re lucky, you might spot a great spotted woodpecker right outside your patio door - better than an Easter bunny, some might say.

Hope Cross Stables at Vicarage Farm

“Fantastic accessible accommodation with spectacular views!”

Everything about this accommodation has been carefully designed for wheelchair users, including those who use powerchairs. From no-threshold internal doors to clever touches like outdoor taps for muddy wheels, reviewers were full of praise. With helpful hosts and a paddock perfect for assistance dogs to stretch their legs, this is one place where accessibility doesn’t come at the cost of comfort or character.

Leuchie House, North Berwick

“I stayed at Leuchie House, quite recently, somewhat apprehensive about doing so. By the end of my 11 day stay, I wondered why I had felt this way.”

Leuchie isn’t just a place to stay - it’s an experience. With round-the-clock care, creative activities, beach trips, voice-controlled lamps and spa-style bathrooms, guests say worries melt away on arrival. Many rediscover independence or confidence here. Leuchie makes that first stay feel like the first of many.

The Rings, Cupar

“I can’t praise the rings highly enough for what they have created, on top of all the functionality I’m talking about, its also a totally beautiful and relaxing space.”

If spring is about new beginnings, then The Rings in Fife is the perfect place to start. Designed with care, these cottages include profiling beds, wet rooms, open-plan layouts, and an accessible hot tub. One family said their daughter finally felt comfortable sleeping away from home - proof of how welcoming the space is. Rainy day? Bissett’s Barn is stocked with books and puzzles!

Croft Bungalow, Birchover

“Two visits in one month at our home from home.”

Tucked into the Peak District, Croft Bungalow is a peaceful, fully equipped retreat that welcomes powerchair users, carers, and assistance dogs alike. Inside you'll find riser recliners, a hoist, wide doors and a profiling bed; outside there’s an accessible garden perfect for relaxing with a cuppa. Add in village pubs and the kindness of host Steve, and it’s no wonder guests return again and again - sometimes twice in the same month.

Whether you’re dreaming of a quiet countryside break or finally booking that first getaway in years, these reviewer favourites prove that accessible holidays don’t have to mean compromising on comfort, joy, or a little bit of Easter magic.
