We attempted to visit House of Dun today , one of our party in a powered wheelchair. We were not expecting to be able to get into the house. We did hope to get into the garden, which the online guide says is wheelchair friendly. It may possibly be. But the access to the garden is over large loose stone chippings, so we couldn't get through the gateway to find out. Rollator also couldn't cope. Blue badge parking was by the entrance. Cafe and shop and courtyard were accessible. Outer edge of courtyard has flagstoned path. However, this is partly obscured by tied open barn doors, and as we negotiated around the doors we we got the wheelchair stuck in the loose chippings. Disappointed, but at least we hadn't travelled far from our holiday accommodation.
