Overall Rating
Excellent
I am a full time wheelchair use and have visited Double Gate on several previous occasions. There is a mix of self catering and riverside rooms, all with very good access provision. Situated in the Somerset Levels equidistance between Well and Glastonbury it provides natural and historic heritage opportunities, as well as general tourism, the coast is less than one hour away too. The welcome at Double Gate Farm is always warm and friendly, reflecting the culture of access for all which has evolved over the years. I would recommend Double Gate farm to anyone.
Disabled Access In and Around
Excellent
The site is fully accessible with garden and riverside location. The information and signage is clear concise and consistently good. There are options of self catering and riverside family rooms which are easily accessible. The friendly - social model culture is a characteristic of Double Gate Farm
Parking & Transport
Excellent
Set on the edge of the Somerset Levels, vehicle access is probably a necessity, although excellent hand cycling countryside, so could be a option too.
Accessible Toilets
Excellent
Yes, accessible public facilities for visitors to coffee shop. There is not a Changing Places toilet, although all the Riverside Rooms accommodation has large roll in showers and toilet facilities, catering for up-to five people staying
Staff
Excellent
Exemplary, feel like old friends. A family business of two generations with a culture of courtesy and good service, with occasional friendly banter with first generation owner Terry.
Additional Information
The precautions were clearly communicated and stringently applied by the Double Gate Farm team, felt very confident and safe with the procedures.
