Accessibility
In spite of the challenges presented by our historic building, we strive to make the cottage and our facilities as accessible as possible with the help of our Heritage Lottery Funding. We have an inclusive wheelchair accessible toilet on site with baby changing facilities and an emergency pull cord, as well as sanitiser stations throughout, and our staff are on hand at all times.
You may also wish to explore our Digital Cottage when planning your visit. This 360 degree Matterport tour is also available in our visitor centre, allowing those who are unable to or uncomfortable with climbing the ladders in the cottage to view the upper rooms.
