We arrived in Ullapool at 20:30, after almost five hours of driving and realised we'd missed the local chip shops, so we popped into Tesco for some snacks and to use the loo. The first thing that struck me on entry is that all signs, except for the Customer Toilet sign, were in English and Gaelic.
Disabled Access In and Around
Good
There are two sets of automatic doors as you enter, and accessible toilets can be found to the left, when the accessible loo is working, that is. The store offers the typical Tesco experience, with food to go as you enter and stacked shelves, just a little more compact than other superstores. I spotted a manual wheelchair near the toilet and a scooter beyond the self-service checkout. These can be borrowed for use in store. The kiosk had a hearing loop symbol. Several checkouts and self-service tills have hearing assistance systems. Self-service tills are accessible from a seated position, and the aisles were wide enough for large powerchairs and scooters.
Accessible facilities: Single-level venue, Step-free entrance
Parking & Transport
Good
I travelled to this place by personal vehicle
There car park is small but does the best with the spaces it has, I counted four accessible spaces, close to the cash machine. There is a drop off point at the store. The car park is tarmac.
Accessible facilities: Dedicated on-site parking, Drop-off or pick up point
Accessible Toilets
Poor
The toilet was out of order when we arrived. I went to the gents, which has an inward opening door and a single cubicle. I had to use my walking stick as it was a bit neat for my wheelchair. The gents has a baby change, which I felt was very inclusive.
Facilities: Accessible toilet
