Thank you Kate for your fabulous Google review and for sending some photos of Jake in action....

We had the most wonderful stay at The Bank in June! We found it very accommodating and accessible for my partner, Jake, who is a wheelchair user. We particularly loved the kitchen which enabled him to cook me a romantic meal for the first time in years - something very unique! The rise and fall hob, the oven complete with extending shelf and roll under sink were particular highlights. There were other excellent facilities, such as a profiling bed, hoist system, ultra accessible shower and roll-in wardrobe which were excellently thought out.
The space was cosy and had clear attention to detail. A highlight was the stunning (And very large!) decking overlooking the lake, where we were fortunate enough to watch the wildlife over breakfast!
A perfectly accessible spot for a young couple, which didn't feel clinical or sterilised. We already can't wait to come back!!!

The changing places bed at The Bank is an important addition to the bathroom for guests who need assistance to shower. It is therefore an important date in the calendar to get it serviced and checked over to make sure it is fully functional for all our guests. Thanks to Astor Bannerman for carrying out this very important job 🙂

Thank you Steve for taking the time to email us with this lovely review....

"The Bank is a great place and equipped to a high standard for our needs, but especially for our daughter who has cerebral palsy and cannot walk so is reliant on a wheelchair and other specialist equipment. The quality of the disabled equipment is the best we have ever had in any holiday home that we have ever stayed in during the last 36 years, and we think the price-point is about right for high-end accommodation of this type. We applaud you for going the extra mile (and expense!). The wrap-a-round decking is fantastic, and the view across the pond is brilliant. The beds, cooker, hob and furnishings etc are all top quality."

We have had so much postive feedback from guests who have stayed with us. This is still a learning curve and little additions are being added as they're suggested.
However we've had lots of comments from couples who would like to sleep together and are dismayed to see that the profiling bed is only a wide single and cannot sleep two.

We took advice from an occupational therapist and other owners of accessible homes before furnishing the property. It was decided that a wide single profiling bed would enable carers easier access as they wouldn't have to reach across a larger bed. We are able to split the super king bed in one of the other bedrooms and place a single next to the profiling bed so that couples can sleep in the same room.
In this photo there is a bedside table in between but we can place the beds adjacent to each other if necessary.
