    Excellent

    Everything accessible for wheelchairs and scooters with good cafe facilities and nice views for those unable to travel very far, including a hide right next to the Centre. Visitor Centre with free access to cafe, charge to go on reserve, free for RSPB members. The good news is a big lottery grant means the reserve is expanding!

    Disabled Access In and Around

    Inside and out accessible with most paths easy to use. Couple of the hides up a steepish gradient and one muddy bit in winter on the way out to the reed beds. Lift to cafe with a balcony with seats and great views (if warm enough). Plenty of room inside.

    Blue badge parking close to the Centre (about 50 yards). You could drop off even closer.
