Overview

This was our second visit to Summerfield Farm and we are booking again for next year! The farm buildings have been attractively adapted and there is a pleasant garden area to sit in. Everything is well maintained and all the equipment which we needed was there. It's very close to Whitby - lots of beautiful countryside round about. And there were some very welcome tea and biscuits when we arrived. (More available at the farm!)

Transport & Parking

Plenty of parking available; would need own transport.

Access

All level access on the ground floor; profiling bed and ceiling hoists in the ground floor bedroom.

Toilets

Given the nature of the building, I found the manoeuvrability around the shower area was quite tight (although perfectly manageable). Normally we have carers but on holiday I look after my husband's needs myself. I found co-ordinating a portable hoist / shower chair / wheelchair needs careful planning but after two stays I am improving!

Staff

Always friendly and helpful (and make very good cakes)!

Anything else you wish to tell us?

Beautiful coastal walks - although only for the sure-footed. Plenty of flat walking around the harbour in Whitby and along the esplanade in Scarborough.
