Overview

Coastal Cottage is an accessible and pet friendly lodge which has been arranged specifically for anyone who is blind or has low vision. We have braille labels, talking scales and microwave, vibrating doorbell and smoke detector. An 'orientation show round' may be arranged for those who require it, this must be booked prior to your stay. The headline is the accessible bedroom with H-frame ceiling tracked hoist linked to the spacious wet room with a range of shower chairs available, drop-down changing bench as well as height specific and accessible features. The large open plan kitchen with dual height hob and sink allows everyone to take part in rustling up a feast. The kitchen has a full range of appropriate utensils including light-weight pans, a talking microwave and scales, dishwasher and kitchen trolley for transporting food. We have a no pour kettle under-counter fridge and freezer along with a lockable cabinet for medicine and that all important Nespresso machine. Essentially, every detail has been designed and built from first principles by Occupational Therapist working at every stage with the architect, builder, kitchen fitter and countless equipment suppliers. The fabulous open plan living and kitchen areas allow all guests to be sociable and come together in one space. At the heart of the living area there is a wood burning stove which makes the property not just functional but warm and inviting; it's a lovely place to play the included multi-sensory games, read, watch a movie or chat. The large floor space of each lodge allows for additional specialist equipment to be brought in from home should you require it. We provide personal and expert reassurance that everyone will be comfortable and able to manage their daily living needs knowing the correct equipment is in place.
