Our carpark includes flat concrete paths from the concreted wheelchair accessible car space, around to the front of our farm shop and undercover entertaining patio area.
Access to our Farm Shop, Cafe and toilets is via a zero entry door, which is a barrier free threshold. Zero entry doors make access easier for those with wheelchairs, walking frames or mobility concerns.
