Overall Rating
Good
Fort Nelson is most easily accessed by car, with disabled parking available. The shop and the vast majority of exhibits are fully wheelchair accessible either via lifts or ramps. Some of the doorways are a little narrow in places but still wide enough to fit through in a wheelchair. The ramp through the fort into the hillside is quite long and steep, and the lighting is quite dim. Impressively, even the ramparts can be accessed from a wheelchair up a smooth turf ramp. Several exhibits also offer tactile models for the visually impaired. An accessible toilet is available in the shop, and staff are super friendly. The cream tea is banging.
