Good access around all the displays inside and also able to access the battlements. Access to all levels via lift. Only small issue was that lift is wide but not very deep so just about managed to get mobility scooter in. Paths outside are fine gravel but with a concrete path around the edge. Rooms with displays were level access, as was cafe. Also seating outside in courtyard. Toilets, including disabled, available inside the Fort.

We drove there. Parking is in a car park just outside the venue but it is a council car park, so payment is required. It is next to Nothe Gardens, which is partially accessible in a scooter but parts are very steep.

Good accessible loo inside the venue with easy access from main courtyard. The disabled loo in the car park was impossible to access with a step and sharp turn required to enter - my husband couldn't do it in his scooter.
