    I am a carer or friend of a disabled person. I have experience of challenges around: moving around

    The ramp leading to the cafe and visitors centre.

    Good

    Visited today with a first time wheelchair user so a very new experience for us. Lovely site which was mostly accessible - some of the issues we came up against may not be problematic for people with more experience.

    Disabled Access In and Around

    Good

    Access from the car park to the cafe and visitors centre was good - a dirt path with wooden ramps to the cafe and visitors centre. Both buildings were easily accessible with the exception of a small bump to get into the visitors centre which couldn’t be accessed without support in the wheelchair. The museum was also easily accessed. We couldn’t make it to the actual village due to the ground being very sandy, and we had been told that the buildings all had a step into them which meant that we would not have been able to access them anyway.

    Excellent

    There were three disabled toilets of varying sizes. The one in the cafe was a little small with a wheelchair, the one in the visitors centre was a little bigger.
