    Excellent

    The main trails are very good for using with a powerchair. Those which might be too steep are highlighted in the trail booklet and on signs. The numbering system could be better and we recommended they use colour coding. The staff were receptive to suggestions, well informed, friendly and happy. The shop and cafe are first rate and easy to negotiate (room for many cyclists, walkers and my powerchair). We had some excellent food served by friendly, happy people. The toilet was easy to negotiate, clean and spacious - no nonsense. The views over Derwentwater are fantastic and we loved hearing the wind through the treetops.

    Parking on tarmac surface of good quality. The blue badge parking is on a risen part of the car park, level with the shop, toilet, and cafe.

    Plenty of room but basic with the usual disability hand rail pack.
