Overall Rating

Excellent

This is not my first visit and I will be going again. It changes with the seasons! (what a surprise!) Firstly if you cannot manage the steep slope down from the car park to entrance - you can phone and they will collect you form the disabled parking! I book an electric wheelchair ahead ( I find it essential as there is a lot of steep paths. It has been designed with enabling the disabled everywhere (except the tree top wire narrow footbridge) access is brilliant, good toilet facilities and priority requested for disabled in lifts. wheelchair can park at end of long food hall tables or eat individually outside Your 'personal assistant' goes in free and multiple entries are available for following 12 months - they just ask for a donation for the very comfortable electric wheelchair I would give higher than 5 stars if I could!! All the staff were more than helpful
