This is a lovely set of cottages updated to a high standard in a lovely location and the Lyneal Trust volunteers were very helpful and friendly. It is a good place for moderately disabled guests to stay with proper wet room bathrooms and step free access. The narrow boat trip we did with a wheelchair one day was excellent and very good value.

These cottages are fantastic - well equipped, thoughtfully designed and clean. Really good value for money and Lyneal Trust were very flexible on arrangements for number of Carers staying etc. It has enabled me to have a holiday with 2 frail people with dementia. Being dog friendly too means companion pets can come along, so important for familiRead morearity and comfort. The grounds are exceptional and its a wonderful calm space to sit and connect to nature. This entire site is exceptional I know of nowhere else offering this unique blend of benefits. There are quite a lot of comings and goings from Volunteers so thats something to be aware of, but everyone was friendly and kept their distance. The bedrooms are separate to the communal area which means that Carers can get a break but for people with dementia this can be disorientating but easily remedied with tactics that you will be familiar with when helping people with these problems.
