Fabulous, interesting, educational but most of all accessible
This brilliant country park is a privately owned trust which specialises in providing sanctuary for wildfowl, ducks, geese etc as well as otters, ospreys and insects. Entrance is slightly expensive but if you live locally you can sign up for an annual pass to gain entry. They offer a guide which shows the wheelchair accessible pathways, some of which are metalled and are easy going for self-propelled or attendance chairs others which might need a powerchair to get around. The Millennium Garden is a complete joy but there are talks on their red squirrel and conservancy programs as well as at 4 pm their bird feeding time which is an absolutely wonderful experience.
The restaurant offers a selection of foods from full meals to sandwiches, cakes and snacks. It is totally accessible. The loos are also easily accessed with plenty of room for chairs or transfers. The bird hides out near the lake are also accessible but you will need to traverse some rather rough pathways to access them.
There is a children's play area but having none to test it out I cannot comment on its accessibility. Dogs are not allowed as the birds are allowed to run freely.
