    Poor

    The walled garden is ok for wheelchair users, and some of the other paths. The courtyear is dreadful - very thick gravel that is near impossible to push through. The tea room and toilets are through the gravel so not good. There is a ramp into the gift shop but it is very steep and short. Unsure if there was a disabled toilet - I did look but I don’t think there was.

    The walled garden is ok, and some paths around the grounds closest to the castle.

    Good

    Parking is grand - not sure if any public transportation would go there.

    Accessible Toilets

    Poor

    There was a sign for one but I don’t think there was a proper disabled toilet and you had to battle through thick gravel to get to the toilets.

    Not overly helpful or chatty. Very unlike other local NTS

    Additional Information

    If you just want a picnic and look at some flowers then great - there are benches by the grass / tree area close to the car park. The walled garden is small but nice to look around.
