Quingo Scooters Accessible Getaways: Harrogate

We all need to get away sometimes, and there is nothing we love more here at Quingo Scooters than tracking down the best short breaks in the UK for you. There are certainly plenty to choose from but this time we’re finding out what the beautiful northern spa town of Harrogate has to offer.

Exploring Harrogate

It’s a regular winner of the best place to live in the UK and it really is no wonder. Harrogate is a stunning town, full of historic buildings and tea rooms to wile away the days in. So, it is a great place to live, but it is also a wonderful town to visit. And whether you fancy taking in the town’s peaceful parks, treating yourself in one of its great cafes or restaurants or enjoying a spot of local history, the great news is that many of its attractions are accessible too. Here is our pick.

Have a little something at Betty’s

If there is one thing that Harrogate is known for around the world, it is its wonderful tea rooms, where people have been filling in that lengthy gap between lunch and their evening meal for generations. Betty’s is without doubt the town’s most famous, as the queues outside prove, but it is certainly with good reason. Having Afternoon Tea there is a fantastic experience, and while the queues can be long, don’t let that put you off. If you really want to treat yourself then book a Lady Betty Afternoon tea online and avoid any waiting. You’ll get to enjoy the luxurious surroundings of Betty’s Imperial and Belmont Rooms, and you even get your own pianist! The café, shop and toilet at Betty’s are all at pavement level and so are easily accessible for scooter users.

Chill out (and warm up) in the Turkish Baths

Of course, thanks to William Slingsby’s discovery of the local springs four hundred years ago, Harrogate is also a spa town, and the historic Turkish Baths are well worth a visit. The place itself is breathtaking (literally, in the case of the cold plunge pool!) with intricate mosaic floors, and Islamic arches creating a real sense of being transported to another world. The baths take you through a process of heating, cooling and cleansing your body, and you can also take your pick from a number of treatments. The baths are fully accessible, although it can be busy and some of the rooms aren’t huge, so we’d recommend giving them a call on 01423 556746 to make sure it won’t be too packed when you visit. As with Betty’s, you can park nearby on the street using pay and display or disc, or there is also the Jubilee long stay car park about 5 minutes away. The Jubilee is just off Cheltenham Road and is open 7am – 10pm Sunday to Wednesday, and 7am – 11:59pm Thursday to Saturday. There are 444 spaces, with a number reserved for Blue Badge holders.

Take a trip around RHS Garden Harlow Carr

If Harrogate’s wonderful tea rooms and relaxing spa facilities weren’t enough, there is also one of the country’s most beautiful and horticulturally important gardens to enjoy. Harlow Carr is a wonderful space to explore, with an extensive garden that is home to an incredible range of different plants. The Royal Horticultural Society have done a fantastic job of making a visit there a real journey through lots of different landscapes, from woods to rich wildflower meadows. We’d suggest you pick a day when the sun is shining and set aside a whole afternoon to explore the garden’s 68 acres.

And as the weather gets colder, we’d also recommend their Winter Garden, that has been designed and planted with the specific shapes and colours of winter in mind. Although some of the paths can be steep, the gardens have been designed to be fully accessible, and you can also park very close to the entrance. For more information, take a look at their accessibility page here.

General accessibility

While Harrogate is hilly and can be busy during tourist season, it is easy to get around and many of the town’s most popular attractions have taken into account the needs of those of us who use mobility scooters and wheelchairs. The town’s main tourism information site is a great place to start planning your stay.

Getting to Harrogate

Harrogate is well served by road, rail and air. If you’re coming by car, it’s about 20 minutes from the A1. For those of you coming from the North, take the A1(M), leave at Junction 47 (Knaresborough) and follow signs to Harrogate. If you’re coming from the South, then take Junction 45 (Wetherby) and then the A661 to Harrogate. It’s half an hour on the train from Leeds, and you can reach Harrogate from London on the train in under three hours. Leeds Bradford Airport is also only about 20 minutes away. There is a direct airport shuttle bus (the 747) which takes you right into the heart of town.

Quingo Scooters Accessible Routes: The Lake District

Mobility scooters offer the perfect way to get around if you’re wanting to explore the great outdoors. And the destination we’re focusing on this time certainly has fresh air in abundance: the Lake District is famous around the world, and the great news is that much of it is accessible. So, here Quingo Scooters finds out what this incredible National Park has to offer.

The Lake District

Never mind just the UK: we’re going to be bold with this one and say that the Lake District must be truly one of the most beautiful places on the planet. It really does have it all, from breathtaking mountains and forests to yes, lakes (although strangely, only one, Bassenthwaite Lake, is officially a lake by name). There is also a rich vein of artistic connections to explore in the Lakes as well, with many painters and writers over the years, from Turner to Wordsworth, being inspired by this incredible place.

Bassenthwaite Lake

The great thing about the Lake District is that there really is a day out to suit every taste. If you love to explore the wilds of the fells and the valleys then there are plenty of accessible routes for you to try. But the towns are also well worth a visit, despite getting incredibly busy in the summer tourist season. Whether you’re looking to pick up a bargain in one of the countless outdoor shops in Keswick, or if you want to enjoy the Beatrix Potter Experience in Windermere, there are lots of options.

Accessibility

The Lake District National Park is an area of great natural beauty and of course, as with any of the UK’s wild places, access to it on a mobility scooter or wheelchair can depend heavily on the weather. That said, the National Park authority website is a good place to start your journey: their dedicated Miles Without Stiles page gives a great overview of the 48 routes in the Lake District that have been identified as being particularly accessible for all. One of our favourites is a fairly lengthy route alongside the stunning Coniston Water. The views are out of this world and one of the best things about it is that is very adaptable if the Cumbrian weather turns against you suddenly (as it often does!). It’s easy to cut the 4.3 mile route short and turn it into just a couple of miles if you need to by getting on one of the Coniston Launches from the jetty at Torver. There is also a car park, accessible toilets and café on Lake Road near to the Coniston Boating Centre.

Another great Miles Without Stiles route is along the shore of Derwentwater, surely one of the most beautiful of all the lakes in the park (and one that has even had a role in Star Wars, of all things!). It takes you along the western shore of the lake, with great views of Skiddaw and the other local mountains that surround Keswick. You can park at Hawse End where the walk starts, but there is also the option to take public transport by using the Buttermere Rambler (service number 77 / 77A). We’d recommend checking with the team there on 01228 597222 to make sure it will be a low floor bus that is operating on the day you want to travel.

Derwentwater

As we mentioned earlier, the Lake District isn’t just about the great outdoors. The Beatrix Potter Experience in Windermere is a real family favourite, and is fully accessible. There is an accessible entrance on Crag Brow, and although it is an old building they’ve done a great job of ensuring everyone can enjoy it. There is also lift access to the Tea Room. It is open every day, from 10 until 6.30pm, with last entry at 5.30pm. If you’re blind and partially sighted then there is also the opportunity to go on a ‘touch tour’ (with authentic aromas) of the exhibition. Just give the team a call on 015394 88444 a couple of weeks before you go to book it in.

Getting there

The Lake District is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the UK and it is well served by the M6 motorway that runs north and south along its eastern edge. Junction 36 and then A590 will take you to the southern Lakes, while Junction 40 and the A66 or A592 will take you to the north. You can also take the train, either to Carlisle, Oxenholme or Penrith from London and Glasgow, and there are direct trains from Manchester to Windermere too. Buses also link many of the towns within the park itself, but again we’d recommend checking to make sure they are accessible, on 01228 597222.

Quingo Scooters Accessible Getaways: Norwich

Stuck for ideas for your next scooter-friendly getaway? At Quingo Scooters, we’re bringing great ideas for city-breaks and adventures to you. This time we head east to Norwich, the county town of Norfolk.

Visiting Norwich

Norwich is a beautiful mix of the historic and contemporary, with a river at its centre. It’s the most complete medieval city in the country and has a fantastic music, cultural and arts scene as well as fascinating heritage, great shopping and a wide range of bars and restaurants. Norwich is also a city with lots of easily accessible attractions and a compact street layout, which means plenty of the good stuff is close together.

When you’re there, be ready for some stellar sightseeing. Here’s just some of the easily accessible attractions to help you plan your getaway.

Norwich Playhouse

If you’re in the mood to see a show, then Norwich Playhouse is the place to go. This offbeat, quirky venue is in the centre of the city and attracts major comedians, Fringe productions, drama, family shows, music and more. All public areas are accessible and there are both Blue Badge parking and discounted tickets available.

Norwich Cathedral

This magnificent cathedral is one of the largest in Europe and houses more than 1,000 medieval roof sculptures. Take a free guided tour and learn about how this beautiful building has survived through the ages and enjoy the refectory beside the cloisters. You’ll find Blue Badge parking spaces in The Close nearby.

Norwich Castle Museum & Art Gallery

The Norman castle is now an art gallery and museum and it’s packed with inspirational treasures, exhibits, history and art to enjoy. There is ramped access and lots of space inside the building for mobility scooters and wheelchair users.

Quingo Scooters Accessible Getaways: Norwich - Norwich Castle

Shopping in Norwich

There are two major shopping centres in Norwich, offering a mix of high street, premium and independent retail experiences. Both Intu-Chapelfield and Castle Mall offer Blue Badge parking, and the former is also home to a dedicated shop mobility centre.

Get back to nature

Fairhaven Woodland and Water Garden offers a beautiful outdoor space to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city centre. Boats are available for hire for cruises and are accessible for scooter and wheelchair users. There is also an accessible tea room, garden and gift shop making it a lovely day out.

Quingo Scooters Accessible Getaways: Norwich - Fairhaven Woodland

Where to stay

For a chic city stay, try the Assembly House right in the centre. Some say it’s the most beautiful place to stay in Norwich, with 11 rooms and two suites set in this Georgian mansion. There are ground floor rooms with private courtyard gardens.

Eating out

For Mexican try the Chiquito Restaurant Bar and Mexican Grill for a fully accessible restaurant, with Blue Badge parking. Or for somewhere off the beaten track, visit Artorio’s Mediterranean Taverna.

Getting there

Norwich is in the centre of Norfolk with easy access to transport hubs and major routes. Greater Anglia runs a fast train service to and from London every half an hour from London Liverpool Street and there are also direct services from Nottingham, Cambridge and Manchester. Have a look at the city council’s planning pages for full information on travelling to Norwich.

Quingo Scooters Accessible Getaways: Cardiff

Right across the UK there’s a huge range of different places that are accessible and easy to explore on your scooter. At Quingo Scooters we’re doing our bit to help you choose where to have your next adventure by bringing you our favourite getaways across the country. This time around we’re heading to the Welsh capital, Cardiff.

Visiting Cardiff

One of the things that strikes you most when you first arrive in Cardiff is the diverse range of things to see and do. It is an historic city of course, with settlers first coming here around 2,000 years ago, but it is also a modern, cutting edge city that is home to some stunning contemporary architecture. Here’s our pick of just a few of the things you need to see.

The Senedd

If you like fascinating buildings, then you are going to love the Senedd. It is the home of the Welsh Assembly, and as the seat of government in Wales it is a building that is hugely significant to this city. We recommend you get a guided tour once you’re there and the team are helpful and friendly. The building itself, as you’d expect, is well-designed with accessibility in mind. There are lifts, ramps and automated doors throughout and it is even possible to hire wheelchairs there if required. You can also park opposite the building in designated Blue Badge spaces. Clearly, this is a working parliament building with its own particular access and security requirements, so we recommend finding out more here on their dedicated access page.

The Firing Line Museum

From a very modern centre of power to an ancient one: the Firing Line Museum is located inside the walls of Cardiff Castle and is well worth a visit. It’s dedicated to Welsh soldiers, many of whom have played a significant role in some of the most important battles of the last 300 years. The whole building is fully accessible via a lift and level floors, and there are also accessible toilets available. Unfortunately there is no dedicated Blue Badge parking at the museum itself, but it is located close to the city centre and you can easily reach it from the car park at Westgate Street where there are four accessible bays.

Quingo Scooters Accessible Getaways: Cardiff - Cardiff Castle

Cardiff Bay

No visit to Cardiff is complete without a visit to its waterfront. Cardiff Bay was once known as Tiger Bay and has certainly had a colourful past. But today it is one of the largest stretches of redeveloped waterfront in the UK and is well worth a visit. It is packed with bars and restaurants and there are plenty of sights to take in, from the spectacular Wales Millennium Centre which hosts regular shows to the waterfront itself. The Bay is straightforward to get to via public transport: just take the connecting train from Queen’s Street to Cardiff Bay (there are lifts on the platform for wheelchair users), or you can park at the nearby Mermaid Quay car park, which has 380 spaces and 16 designated Blue Badge bays.

Where to stay

If you fall in love with the Cardiff Bay area (and a lot of people do) then you’ll want to stay at the Future Inn Cardiff Hotel. We were really impressed with the accessibility of the hotel, with its free parking right outside the hotel and its accessible rooms with wet floor showers. Read a full review here.

Eating out

For a meal with a view, then you can’t do much better than the Look Out Cafe. As the name suggests, this is just a cafe, so the menu is fairly limited, but it’s well worth a visit, if only for the view itself. Again, you can park at the nearby Mermaid Quay car park. If you’re looking for something a little more substantial, then head to the Society Standard. It’s a quirky bar and kitchen, that’s fully accessible and has plenty of local beers and a hearty menu to choose from.

Getting there

Cardiff, as you’d expect from Wales’ largest city, is easily accessible from right across the UK. It has its own international airport, and there are regular trains that will take you into the city centre every hour. Find out more here. If you’re driving then the M4 will bring you to the city from the east, while the M6, M5 and M50/M4 connect it to the north. If you’re coming from the southwest, then take the M4 and M5. It’s only a couple of hours by train from London Paddington, and there are services to Cardiff Central from right across the rail network. Visit Arriva Trains to find out more

Quingo Scooters Accessible Attractions: 5 of The Best British Beaches

As an island nation, the UK has had a long love affair with the seaside. A trip to the beach is as British as, well, fish and chips. But it’s also something that those of us who use a mobility scooter may have avoided in the past. The perception was that many beaches might not be all that accessible, and that sand or pebbles aren’t best suited to four wheels. Happily, things are changing, and here, as part of our Accessible Attractions series, Quingo Scooters is heading to the beach. Don’t forget your bucket and spade!

What’s On

With over 10,000 miles of coastline in the British Isles, it’s fair to say there’s plenty of choice out there. But here are just five of the best and most accessible beaches in the UK.

  1. Broadhaven Beach. Pembrokeshire

Pembrokeshire is breathtakingly picturesque. In fact, many of Wales’ beaches are stunning, with the kind of wild beauty that you’d usually expect to have to fly to the south of France to see. Broadhaven is one of our favourites, not least because it is so accessible. When the tide is out, it’s big and flat, with plenty of room for you to explore on your scooter. The sand is lovely and firm, but if you’re feeling nervous about taking your scooter out onto the beach itself you can also hire all-terrain beach wheelchairs to get around in. We recommend you give Haven Sports Surf shop a call on 01437 781354 or visit their website here to book your all-terrain chair. There’s a car park with 200 spaces (although no dedicated ones for Blue Badge holders, unfortunately). If you’re travelling by car just follow the B4341 west of Haverfordwest, or you can also take a train to the nearest station at Milford Haven.

  1. Gyllyngvase Beach, Cornwall

Another gorgeous stretch of sand as well as rock pools that are perfect for exploring. There’s plenty of parking nearby (around 100m from the beach) with Blue Badge spaces, as well as straightforward level access onto the beach itself. Again, if you’re not too keen on taking the scooter out onto the sand then you can hire Sand Chairs from the cafe Gylly Beach Cafe. Just incidentally, they also have fantastic cakes and bread (fresh from their bakery on the beach) as well as some delicious dishes for later, after a hard day out on the sand. Gyllyngvase Beach is simple to get to: the M4, M5 and M6 will all bring you into Cornwall, and then follow the A30 to Truro, following signs for Falmouth. Once you get to Falmouth just follow the signs directing you to the beach. There are also plenty of regular rail services into Falmouth Town train station.

  1. North Berwick, East Lothian, Scotland

Of course, one of the biggest draws for any visitor to North Berwick is that’s it’s only 25 miles or so from the beautiful city of Edinburgh. But North Berwick itself is well worth a visit, not least for its accessible beach. The town itself is very historic and was once a fashionable resort for the wealthy inhabitants of the Scottish capital up the road. Today, its harbour is still a lovely place to take in the magnificent Firth of Forth, which features some spectacular islands such as Fidra, The Lamb, Craigleith, and of course Bass Rock which is home to thousands of puffins and gannets. But you’ll also fall in love with the beach here. We recommend heading to the Beach Hut on the Harbour that belongs to Beach Wheelchairs where the team will be happy to hire you one of their all-terrain chairs for the sand. There is free parking right on the harbour (although there’s only five spaces, there are designated Blue Badge spots). Find out more here. North Berwick is easy to reach from Edinburgh, which has its own international airport and there are extensive rail connections from Edinburgh Waverley station to North Berwick. There’s an hourly train service run by Abellio Scotrail, or if you’re looking to drive then just follow the A1 east.

  1. Langland Bay, Gower Peninsula, Wales

Another beautiful Welsh beach, this time on the Gower Peninsula. This one is lined with colourful beach huts for that classic seaside feel, and the best thing about Langland is that is completely accessible to everyone who wants to enjoy it. The nearest parking is at Langland Bay Road, where you’ll find 265 spaces. Blue Badge holders have designated bays and a concessionary price: you can park for four hours for £1.50 or all day for £3.00, and if you want to venture out on the sand then you can also reserve an all terrain wheelchair by calling 01792 655 844 to find out more.

If you tire of the stunning beaches at Langland, we also recommend taking time to check out the gorgeous Clyne Gardens. They’re free, open all hours and contain several National Collections of plants (including the tallest Magnolia in Britain!), all within some lovely parkland. Langland Bay beach is easily accessible from Mumbles. There are hourly trains from Cardiff to Swansea and then Mumbles is a short taxi ride away. If you’re coming by car, then Langland Bay is a five-minute drive from Mumbles. Take the M4 and then junction 42 for the road to Swansea Bay.

  1. Bournemouth Beach

Bournemouth’s sea front is one of the most famous and most popular beaches in the UK and with good reason. One of the most accessible beaches we’ve come across, Bournemouth council have made a real effort to open the beach up for the enjoyment of all. A great place to start for more information is the dedicated accessibility page here. One of the best features of the beach is the accessible Beach Huts.

Each one has enough room for four wheelchair users, as well as an electric scooter charging point, designated Blue Badge parking bays, level wooden pathways to the beach and a Changing Places facility with a bed, toilet, sink, shower and tracking hoist. If you’d like to book one, or just find out more, give them a call on 01202 451781.

The cliff tops above the beach are also accessible to scooter users via cliff lifts. The views are spectacular and the lifts themselves are also quite an experience: the first ones were built in 1908! It’s £1.50 for an adult and any carers go free. Once you’re at the top, we really recommend you pop in to the Russell Cotes Gallery and Museum. It’s one of the last Victorian homes built in Britain and it is a fascinating time capsule.

Bournemouth is easily accessible by car. From London, take M25, M3, M27 and then the A31 and the A338 to Bournemouth. Bournemouth’s train station has regular services from London (see here for more details) and the town also has its own international airport. For more information on getting from the airport into town, read about the shuttle service here.
