Overview
A fantastic destination for a holiday or short break away in the Lancashire countryside. The great thing about Hambleton Cottages is that they are easily accessible for anyone with an impairment or mobility issue. There are hoists and profiling beds which are available to hire for individuals with more complex physical needs. The staff are extremely welcoming and helpful and the cottage itself is luxurious.
Transport & Parking
Flat, level access tarmac car park where you can park right outside your cottage. Lots of room and is private with no public access.
Access
I do not think there cottages could be any more accessible. No steps or thresholds to overcome, and doors are wide enough for specialist wheelchairs. Open plan kitchen and dining area to allow wheelchair access and low worktops. Large living area with television. Plenty of activities in the surrounding area including Blackpool Pleasure Beach which is also level flat ground and only 5 miles drive.
Toilets
Bedrooms downstairs with en-suite wet room with commode and shower chair readily provided. Mobile hoist readily available to hire for £50 for the five days. Electric beds readily provided and en-suites in all bedrooms.
Staff
Extremely friendly and welcoming. We were shown around the cottage and given a welcome pack with all safety and appliance information. There were also reviews from previous customers that were available for us to read and plenty of information on activities to do in the surrounding area.
Anything else you wish to tell us?
It was fantastic and was a really positive experience for the gentleman I supported to go there. He said he really enjoyed it and would like to go back again.
