    Good

    I decided that as I live locally it would be a different place to try for a walk, as during covid everywhere is shut. The car park had plenty of spaces for disabled parking and we were pleased the space was more than adequate for our WAV van. Staff were very helpful directing us to where the disabled parking was. It was a short distance to the ticket booth but the bight was not friendly for a person in a wheelchair which was high up, making it harder to hear and talk. When booking tickets if you have more than one carer you have to email, a shame there is not an option on website. The grounds were very lovely in January and very accessible in my power wheelchair with good alternative routes with no step access well sign posted. There were a good amount of ordinary disabled toilets which I could not use but what was brilliant was that they had a changing places toilet near the lake which included a shower, and was lovely and warm. However Leeds castle do call it an adult changing room.

    Thanks, Euan. That looks a great place to visit when we're allowed to visit places! Good to know they've added things to support wheelchair users.
