Yes. Most areas of the house are accessible, however, there’s limited access to the Prints and Drawings Rooms and Treasury via a chair lift. Our historic lift, which services the first floor, is quite limited on space and not all scooters or wheelchairs can be accommodated. We’ll be able to advise on whether your mobility aid will fit in the lift at the point of admission to the House.
On occasion we may request that a mobility scooter or wheelchair user transfer into one of our house wheelchairs upon arrival at the house entrance. This is usually because your mobility scooter or wheelchair is too large to accommodate. However, if for any reason this isn’t possible, you’re welcome to use your own scooter or wheelchair on the ground floor. We have four wheelchairs suitable for use inside the house which are located in the main entrance and are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
