There simply isn't a "one size fits all"

How does it work?

Whether you need a holiday, Short Term Accommodation (STA) or Medium Term Accommodation (MTA), people with mobility issues look forward to a stress-free break just like everyone else.

Before we can even consider whether the location or property, is what we are after, we have to first be practical. We need information. Like you, we have also had to ask these sorts of questions:

“Will the doors be wide enough to fit my wheelchair?”

“My weak hip means I can’t climb steps”

“That pool looks gorgeous. I wonder if there is a hoist so my son can enjoy it too?”

“With my MS, sometimes I lose my balance, I wonder if they have a shower chair and grab bars?”

With Accessible Accommodation, we provide you with factual information so what you see is what you get on arrival. 50 frequently asked questions. Video tours and lots of photos demonstrating accessible features. Activities in the surrounding area that is accessible.

And, if you need help, you are supported by a dedicated helpline and website chat feature, operated by people with disabilities.
