Overall Rating

Good

We visited during a weekend in Leicester for a gig - staff are amazing but there are some accessibility issues.

Disabled Access In and Around

Good

Wide corridors and a lift to the first floor for the dig exhibition. The exhibition itself is quite dark making access difficult at times, and there is not seating in the exhibition itself until you get to the grave site. It would have been much easier with regular seating for people with mobility issues. The cafe is large and accessible.

Parking & Transport

Good

The visitors centre does not have any parking itself. We parked at the High Cross Shopping Centre a short distance from the venue.

Accessible Toilets

Excellent

Clean and a good size

Staff

Excellent

The staff were a highlight - friendly and helpful throughout!
