Accessible Bed & BreakfastSummary of reviews related to the 'Accessible' categoryDartington Hall offers a blend of traditional charm and accessibility features for guests with disabilities. The venue boasts beautiful gardens and a large range of accessible walks, including paths adorned with sculptures by internationally renowned artists. Many visitors appreciated the easy-to-find stairs and the ground floor rooms, which provide straightforward access. The lovely restaurant with accessible features received favorable mentions and the nearby Staverton Station is reachable on foot, ideal for steam train enthusiasts.
