Overall Rating

accessible for wheelchairs, friendly helpful knowledgeable staff,
Disabled Access In and Around
Excellent
Step to hut 6, a wheelchair user would need assistance. There are ramps to access all other huts. Block B has a wheelchair lift to access first floor, ground floor fully accessible.
Parking & Transport
Excellent
Plenty of blue badge spaces available near entrance to site
Accessible Toilets
Excellent
Accessible toilets in visitor centre, plenty of other accessible toilets easy to find around the site. All that I used have grab rails and are large enough for a carer and wheelchair if necessary.
Staff
Excellent
Knowledgeable and helpful staff around the site particularly in the Mansion and Block B
Additional Information
There is a lake and flower beds in the centre with plenty of seats and deckchairs. There is a coffee shop in the visitor Centre, a cafe serving hot and cold food in hut 4 and a tea room (not always open) in the mansion. There were a lot of visitors but they dispersed over the site and it didn't seem crowded. Too much to see in a day, the ticket is valid for a year so we will be making at least one return visit. All in all a great day out.
