I am a carer or friend of a disabled person. I have experience of challenges around: moving around and understanding.
Overall Rating
Good
Lovely place to visit with shops and café which are fully accessible. The country park is mostly accessible for wheelchair users but could do with more seating areas for people with walking aids. The shops are good for ladies and gents clothing, gifts and food and drink. The courtyard which gives access to the shops, café and ticket office has a slabbed path all around with a pebbled area in the middle. There are picnic benches in the pebbled area.
Disabled Access In and Around
Good
Shops and café are fully accessible. The country park is mainly accessible but could do with a few more places to sit down. For people pushing a manual wheelchair, it can be quite tiring.
Parking & Transport
Good
There are 3 blue badge spaces in the middle parking bay. There is a path towards the courtyard which has a fairly steep gradient but is suitable for wheelchairs.
Accessible Toilets
Average
There is a disabled toilet but it could do with upgrading.
Staff
Excellent
Staff in the café and at the entrance to the park were friendly, helpful and approachable.
