Lovely hall which only opens Sundays, Mondays and Bank Holidays. Access to cafe with wheelchair accessible tables. Wheelchair entrance to hall unfortunately over grass. Ramp into hall. Downstairs accessible but be sure to ask to see the entrance hall or this will be missed by wheelchair users. Very helpful guide, he even allowed us to take photos inside. Photo book of upstairs provided very poor. Access to surrounding garden OK but flight of steps at one end and one large step at the other end which made it impossible for myself in an electric wheelchair to visit the gazebo and flower garden and the lake. Searched and found a "kissing gate" which was impassable but at the side of it was a "gate" which could be dismantled if you have able companions! This led to the bridge over the lake.

Apart from the access to the gardens and lake, would recommend it.
