Overall Rating
Excellent
Superbly equipped holiday lodges for disabled people and their family or friends in an amazing location. Ideally situated to get out and about in the East Neuk of Fife and beyond. For relaxing "at home" days, each lodge has beautiful gardens and private outdoor space with views of the sea and links golf course. Brilliant, helpful and friendly Reception and cafe staff makes Homelands the No. 1 holiday destination for disabled people in Scotland.
Disabled Access In and Around
Excellent
Homelands is well signposted from the main road in Lundin Links. Each lodge has a flat entry with extra wide doors to accommodate all wheelchairs. Access to the garden is available through the lounge and also the ground floor bedroom.
Parking & Transport
Excellent
Excellent parking facilities for Disabled and visitors' vehicles on designated hard standings. A short walk takes you to the main road and bus stop where frequent and regular local buses connect Lundin Links to the East Neuk of Fife villages and also Leven, Kirkcaldy, Glenrothes and Dunfermline in North and West Fife. Taxis to Leven are also readily available at a very reasonable cost.
Accessible Toilets
Excellent
There are two ground floor toilets in each lodge. One is suitable for walking disabled people and has grab rails. The other is in the very spacious wet room and also has grab rails. This is ideal for wheelchair users and attendants.
Staff
Excellent
Nothing is too much trouble for the staff at Homelands. They are very welcoming and friendly and ensure every one feels at home and gets the maximum benefit from their holiday.
Additional Information
I would highly recommend Homelands to anyone who is looking for a holiday for a disabled person. It is absolutely perfect in every way. If I could suggest an improvement, it would be to include some shade for the patio area, e.g., a parasol, gazebo or awning. The fabulous lawns and gardens face south-east so on hot sunny days, it might be too much for disabled people who perhaps can't move position. That is the only improvement I can think of - everything else is 100%.
