Quest's Exciting Partnership with Accessible Accommodation Paves the Way for Inclusive Tourism

One of Accessible Accommodation's guests, Karen Gillies shares about her stay in September 2023 at one of our exclusive properties, Brisbane Bayside on Coochiemudlo Island.

Hollyhall Farm – An Accessible ParadiseDuring our recent stay at Hollyhall Farm in the Southern Highlands, we had an incredible experience that I cannot recommend enough. As a family with a daughter (Grace), who relies on a wheelchair due to a rare genetic movement disorder, finding suitable accommodation can be challenging. However, Jan and John, the hosts of Hollyhall Farm, went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction throughout our stay. Hollyhall Farm really was An Accessible Paradise.

A Blissful LocationEscape the city and immerse yourself in Coochiemudlo Island's serenity. An 8 minute ferry or car barge ride from Victoria Point is a perfect getaway destination. Discover the Tranquil Oasis of 7 On Merindah offering convenience and tranquillity, leaving you refreshed.

Accessibility can vary widely, not only due to the diverse needs of people with different types of disabilities but also because accommodations were often designed according to the standards of their time. Older properties may have limited modifications in place, while newer builds are typically designed with a broader range of accessibility features. In this blog, I'll answer some common questions about accessibility and help clarify what you might expect across different accommodation types and styles.

Hey there, my name is Josh and I wanted to share my experience at the Melbourne F1 Grand Prix. As a big fan of cars and racing, I was excited to attend this event for the second year in a row.This time around, I was offered general admission tickets which I couldn’t turn down. Last year was my first time going and I purchased grandstand tickets. I was pleasantly surprised to find that Albert Park, where the race takes place, is largely flat and accessible, which made it much easier for me to get around. Since I got my new electric wheelchair earlier this year I thought I would give it a good test at the Grand Prix.
