Access for all
If you have difficulty walking, there's equipment on hand to help you enjoy the centre and grounds, during the opening times of the house.
- Free use of a mobility scooter for use in the gardens (although donations are welcome)
Arrival and parking
We have a car park for disabled badge holders next to the Visitor Centre entrance. There are also disabled parking spaces by the lower wooden entrance to the grounds (next to the Garden Shed café), and at the top of the car park (next to Treetop Trek). Accessible routes around site can be found on the signs at each entrance route into the grounds
Our staff in the Visitor Centre will be happy to help and answer any questions.
Grounds and gardens
The gardens were originally designed in Edwardian times for private use, so many of the paths and steps are steep. There is a path from the car park which takes you down to the lake and lower areas of the gardens. This is suitable for wheelchair users.
You are welcome to board the Brockmobile for a lift into the grounds. We also have a mobility scooter for you to borrow for a couple of hours to enjoy the gardens and grounds. Please ask at the information desk in the shop.
Adventure playground
Our adventure playground focuses on family fun and features a wide range of equipment suitable for toddlers right through to teenagers. The amazing toddler area even features a Play Galleon boat as a central point.
Dogs
We welcome dogs at Brockhole but ask that owners keep them on a lead at all times.
Dogs on leads are allowed in:
- the gardens and grounds
Dogs are not allowed in:
- he adventure playground
- Treetop Trek Nets area
Assistance dogs are welcome throughout the site. Please just ask if you need assistance.
