Wheelchair users like to be independent whenever possible, so finding accessible holiday accommodation is a must. The cottages and apartments shown on this page are all within a reasonable distance of Blarney, north of the city of Cork. Blarney Castle is a popular place to visit, not only to kiss the stone but to enjoy the gardens and events.
The kinds of facilities that wheelchair users require from their holiday accommodation are: ramp access, spacious accommodation with generous turning circle, a wet room, grab rails - especially in bathrooms, parking adjacent to the accommodation and if possible, low level kitchen surfaces.
Most disabled people will be part of a larger family or friend group when they holiday. There may be someone to assist but most understandably would like to be as self-reliant as possible. The ideal holiday home for a disabled guests would also have level paths and no steps in the garden.
