Overall Rating
Excellent
Visited Bovington Tank Museum and saw lots and lots of tanks surpisingly. Throughout wheelchair access was great and I could wheel myself easily amongst the displays. Information boards be at a perfect height and angle for me to read and because I was in charge I could do so at my own speed. There were areas I didn't venture and a large, steep ramp between floors, which was avoided. No problems in either the cafe or the shop. There are disabled toilets but don't recall checking them out, sorry. Also didn't check out their outdoor display this time. Glad I wasn't a tank operative generally they seemed crampe, smelly and hot inside. I hasten to add I did not try one!! although you could.
Disabled Access In and Around
Excellent
The cafe and toilet are on the higher level, do not attend to wheel back up the ramp as there is a lift.
Parking & Transport
Excellent
There was a large car park right outside the entrance. But I cannot remember if special disabled spaces were available, sorry.
Accessible Toilets
Excellent
Know there is a disabled toilet as I visited it, but I hadn't got the idea of what to look for yet. Although saying that, they must of been grab rails, for me!!
Staff
Excellent
Everyone was nice and freindly.
