Disability Rating: M1, M2, M3a
Disability Equipment all Free of Charge
With our personal experience with dealing with disabilities we take great pleasure in welcoming people who may be in a wheelchair or just less able to walk without help.
The cottages were designed by a wheelchair user who understands the problems of accessibility. The access to the cottages is exceptionally good and the purpose built footpaths make the farm accessible too so that everyone can enjoy the magnificent views.

- All doorways 850 – 900 mm wide.
- All rooms in Blue Tit and Kingfisher have at least 1500mm turning circles.
