Overview

The food here is lovely. Views from the patio are stunning. Access to tearooms is via farm shop with a severe and very short ramp at the main door. I visited twice - once in a chair and once using a wheeled walker.

Transport & Parking

There is a large car park. There are no designated blue badge spaces. There's plenty of space to park but the issue is being able to park close to the shop and this is a very popular place. The car park surface is uneven and has loose chippings in places.

Access

Once inside the place is level. There are displays and shelves to negotiate though so care needed, but there's plenty of space to get a chair through. The outside seating has two levels - the upper level is directly accessed from the tearoom. The lower level is accessed via a ramp which is quite steep but manageable. The patio is paved. There's plenty of room inside the cafe and farm shop to manoeuvre a chair. The steep ramp up to the shop door is an issue as is the sprung front door - very hard for carer to hold or for a disabled person to manage. There are double doors from shop to tearoom - one open and the 2nd one is easy to open to get a chair through.

Toilets

There's a disabled loo adjacent to the main gents and ladies loos. Well signed, clean, well equipped.

Staff

The staff seemed friendly and helpful .

Anything else you wish to tell us?

The main issues are the car park and the ramp to the main door, plus heavy front door. I'd suggest the owners consider a couple of disabled parking bays as close as possible to the care/shop plus replacing the ramp at the main door with a more gently sloping one. The front door is difficult to manage. Well worth a visit though for the excellent food and great views of Wharfedale.
