Overall Rating
Good
The sculptures are set in the gardens adjacent to the House of an Art Lover. A tarmac path winds its way through the gardens and the sculptures are set on the different lawn areas.
Disabled Access In and Around
Good
Once in the Sculpture Garden getting around was easy as the paths are all hard surfaced and easy to wheel around. The sculptures are set out on the different grass areas and it is easy to wheel up and see each one at first-hand. There were plenty of seats if you wanted to take time out and rest a while. The gardens were beautiful and full of colour with the spring plants.
Parking & Transport
Average
Parking was in the Blue Badge parking area. From there it was a fifty metre walk into the Scuplture Garden. The parking area was confusing as the lines on the ground didn't clearly indicate where to park. Getting out of the vehicle you had to cross over a thin line of cobble like stones to get onto the main walkway. These were a problem for the manual wheelchair.
Accessible Toilets
Average
Toilets are available in the nearby House of an Art Lover. You do need to go down steps or use the ramp (a slope from the drive) to get in.
