National Accessibility Scheme

The VisitBritain National Accessibility Scheme is for self-catering and serviced accommodation. Accommodation that displays one or more of the signs is committed to accessibility. When you see one of the symbols you can be sure that the accommodation has been thoroughly assessed against the demanding criteria. Please check specific requirements with each establishment at the time of booking.

• Mobility Level 1 – Typically suitable for a person with sufficient mobility to climb a flight of steps but would benefit from points of fixtures and fittings to aid balance.
  
• Mobility Level 2 – Typically suitable for a person with restricted walking ability and for those that may need the use of a wheelchair some of the time and can negotiate a maximum of three steps.
  
• Mobility Level 3 - Typically suitable for a person who depends on the use of a wheelchair in a seated position. The person also requires a personal/mechanical assistance to aid transfer (e.g. carer, hoist)
