Disabled Holidays

[JamesW]

Can you folks recommend some good disabled holiday companies please? I would be looking for places that can cater for me in a large power chair and have a ceiling track hoist, shower chair and profile bed available.

Many thanks 😊

JamesW The MNDA have an Info Sheet on 'Planning a Holiday', starting from page 6 there's a list of specialist companies: Info Sheet 12D

A notable omission is Euans Guide

You could also try searching for terms such as 'holiday', 'cottage', 'hotel' etc.

Good luck, hope you find somewhere suitable.

Love Ellie.

I know two:
1). Lake District Disabled Holidays. One of their cabins has a ceilings track hoist and all of the cabins are wheelchair friendly, have nhs type of bed and a riser/recliner chair.
2). Summerfield Farm in between Whitby and Robin Hood’s Bay off the main road. If you google disabled holidays Whitby it will come up. I don’t know if they have a ceiling hoist but worth asking.

Good luck.

CHuC is an excellent site, for many things pertaining to hoists. (Ceiling hoist user community)
disabledholidays.com - very helpful staff
center parts have excellent chalets - lower sinks, HUGH bathrooms, parking outside (expensive though, arguably worth it)

Thanks for the excellent replies… you have been given me lots to go at 👍👍👍

I also know that cruising is good for people with disabilities but there’s not many of those around at the moment and what there are costs a fortune 🥺
