Accessibility

All areas are accessible, however assistance may be required for anyone using a wheelchair.

The venue includes level access and ramps between spaces, along with wide, non-automated doors that can accommodate wheelchair users and those with mobility aids.

Surfaces across the site vary slightly in keeping with the historic setting. Indoors, floors are generally smooth and even, while outdoor areas include a mix of compacted gravel, coir matting, grass and stone pathways. These are well-maintained and suitable for most wheelchairs and buggies, though some areas may be more uneven than others and wheelchair users may requires some assistance.

Being a rural farm, some of our surfaces are more natural. We’ve done our best to make it heel-friendly, but we’d definitely recommend bringing a pair of flats for dancing later on!

We’re always happy to talk through specific requirements in advance and can suggest the most accessible routes and areas to ensure everyone feels comfortable and supported throughout their visit.
