Overall Rating

Excellent

The Old Farm House is 2 bedroom, wheelchair accessible throughout with fantastic views South facing views from the living room. Both bedrooms have en-suite wet rooms and the larger bedroom has two profiling beds.

Disabled Access In and Around

Excellent

All the accommodation is on the ground floor with a tiled surface. The living and kitchen area was larger than we had anticipated and we found it easy to bring in extra seating that we required. The large bedroom was big enough for us to access easily with the wheelchair

Parking & Transport

Good

There's space for a wheelchair accessible vehicle and another car directly outside the property - the car parking area was gravel but this was firm enough to be able to move the wheelchair around easily

Accessible Toilets

Excellent

The large wet room is over 4m2 which enabled us to bring the shower seat that we needed to use - just what we needed.

Staff

Excellent

Great - we were asked before how we had wanted the bedroom accommodation (they can change twin beds to doubles and can offer shower seats). We were very warmly greeted and were able to change our plans on arrival.

Additional Information

The Old Farm House is near Hadrian's Wall close to the Sill visitor centre which is able to offer a changing places toilet and cafe.
