Quingo Scooters Accessible Getaways: Wells

Wells isn’t huge, but there is still plenty for visitors to enjoy in this gorgeous city. It’s only 20 miles or so from the equally stunning Bath, but it really stands alone, not least because of its remarkable cathedral. The historic centre certainly brings in plenty of visitors, but there are also other hidden gems, including the regular market. Here’s our guide to accessible Wells.

Wells Market

It is tempting to start, as most visitors do, with the cathedral, but we feel that Wells’ regular outdoor market is an equally good place to get a taste of the city. It is widely considered to be one of the best in the country, and we’d certainly agree. Whether you want to buy local cheeses, handicrafts or a pot of chilli jam you’ll find it here on Wednesdays and Saturdays. It is all accessible for you on your scooter too and you can park nearby, although not in the Market Place car park on market days. There are however Blue Badge spaces for on street parking on the High Street and Cathedral Green, with a three hour maximum stay.

Wells Cathedral

They began the building of this remarkable cathedral way back in 1175 and it took until 1490 to finish it. Its most famous feature is the West Front, which was inspired by French Gothic architecture. As well as this, we’d also strongly recommend you take a moment to gaze in awe at the famous Jesse Window, a spectacular example of stained glass from the 14th century. We’re lucky that is still around too, as it was nearly destroyed during the English Civil War. Accessibility is excellent, with ramps where you need them and a level floor throughout the main cathedral floor. There is also a lift if you want to visit the  Cathedral café on the first floor. We’d recommend giving the team there a call on 01749 674483 to discuss any particular needs you might have. There are also Blue Badge parking spaces on Cathedral Green Road nearby.

Wells Bishop’s Palace

Of course, one of the most famous buildings in Wells is the home of the Bishops of Bath and Wells. Their historic moated palace, close to the city centre, has been around for 800 years and is well worth a visit. There’s plenty to keep you busy here, from the bell-ringing swans (really!), the medieval architecture of the palace and the fascinating gardens that surround them. Accessibility is generally good, with a lift to the upper floor of the palace, although the surfaces can be uneven in some places outside. We’re also big fans of the Bishop’s Table café by the moat drawbridge, and found that the staff there were very helpful. If you want to park nearby, then there are two Blue Badge spaces close to the drawbridge, but you will need to give the team a call a couple of days before your visit on 01749 988111 to reserve it.

Vicars Close

While you are in the historic centre of Wells, we also highly recommend that you take a quick look at Vicars Close. It is apparently the oldest, intact medieval street in Europe, and it is a wonderful place to get a sense of what this town must have been like during the Middle Ages. The street was designed in the 14th century as a place to accommodate the Vicars Choral, who are the choir who sing everyday in the cathedral, and it is still their home today. It’s a cobbled street, so the surface isn’t ideal for scooters, but it is well worth a visit if you are close by.

For more information on the accessibility of many of Wells’ most famous and popular sites, as well as information on parking, take a look at this handy guide on the city’s main tourist information site.

Eating out in Wells

If you are looking for something not too pricey in central Wells then we’d definitely recommend the Courtyard Restaurant. It’s wheelchair accessible, close by the cathedral and offers a good selection of well-cooked local dishes. We also loved the TWENTYONE café and kitchen for their great cakes and a peaceful atmosphere.

Getting to Wells

The simplest way to get to Wells is by car: just take the A39 from the M5. There are no direct trains to the city, but there are regular connecting bus services to Bristol Temple Meads, Bath Spa, Frome and Castle Cary railway stations. Bristol Airport is around 20 miles away and is also possible to hire a car there for the onward trip to Wells itself.

Quingo Scooters Accessible Getaways: Salisbury

There is so much to love about Salisbury. Whether it is the history of the place, with its gorgeous gothic cathedral, or the wonderful green spaces of this welcoming city, there is so much to see and do. Here is Quingo Scooters pick of just a few of the best things to get up to in this fantastic English gem.

  1. Soak up the atmosphere of the ancient cathedral

Salisbury is dominated by its beautiful cathedral, which is a great example of early English gothic architecture. The outside, with its remarkable decoration and flying stone buttresses is an architectural marvel, and the atmosphere inside is breathtakingly peaceful. The cathedral itself is fascinating but we would also recommend you take a look at the very early example of the Magna Carta they have here: a truly priceless treasure. The Cathedral floor, the Chapter House, the cloisters, the Refectory Restaurant, shop and toilets are all fully accessible. Blue Badge parking is available in the Cathedral Close, nearby, but it is £7 for the full day to leave your car there.

Salisbury Cathedral Accessible Getaways Quingo Scooters

  1. Unearth the past in Salisbury Museum

This is an area that is steeped in history (one of the world’s most famous prehistoric monuments, Stonehenge, is only eight miles or so away). A great place to get a sense of how the city and the surrounding landscape all fit together is Salisbury Museum. There, you will get the chance to see everything from the remains of the Stonehenge Archer to a Bronze Age gold necklace. There isn’t access to the first floor unfortunately, but the whole of the ground floor has level access, which includes the shop, reception and coffee shops as well as the Wessex gallery, the Salisbury history exhibition and regular temporary exhibitions. Well worth a visit.

  1. Pick up a bargain at the Salisbury Charter Market

Like a lot of things in Salisbury, the regular markets here have been around for a very long time indeed. There has been a market here since the founding of the city in 1219, and the current markets run every Tuesday and Saturday in the historic market square. They are a wonderful place to spend time browsing and looking for bargains. You will find everything from local butchers and fishmongers to stalls selling gifts and flowers, and the names of some of the surrounding streets (such as Fish Row and Silver Street) hint at what a busy trade the city has seen over the years. The market is busy, but spread over a large area. Apart from the usual hazards such as kerbs and uneven surfaces, the market is generally accessible on your scooter. There is parking at nearby Brown Street car park which has a number of free Blue Badge spaces.

  1. Imagine life in a hill fort

Old Sarum is only a couple of miles outside of the city of Salisbury, but it is like stepping into another world completely. This remarkable archaeological site was once a thriving Iron Age hill fort which was then resettled by the Romans, the Saxons and the Normans. It then became a busy settlement in the Middle Ages, before falling into disuse.  before growing into one of the most flourishing settlements in medieval England. It is a wonderful site to explore, and there is ramped access for your scooter as well as accessible toilets. There is one Blue Badge parking bay available, although you will need to call the team on 0370 333 1181 to reserve it before you visit.

  1. Solve a murder mystery

Something a bit different now, and a great way to explore the city. The Cathedral Close Murder Mystery Treasure Trail is a fully accessible treasure hunt that young and old can enjoy together, as it takes you around the town. It usually takes around an hour and half, although the beauty of the trail is that you can do it at your own pace. You can either have the trail posted to you or you can download it from the Treasure Trail website Nearest parking is at the Lush House car park, where there are a number of Blue Badge spots available.

Eating out in Salisbury

If you’re looking for relatively cheap eats, then you can’t go wrong with Côte Brasserie in the town centre. You’ll get a great view of the cathedral (if you sit outside) and it is a great place to get simple, delicious French food in an accessible environment. For something a little more special, give Anokaa a go. They serve beautifully presented Indian food in a spacious, wheelchair accessible restaurant that is rightly very highly regarded by locals and visitors alike.

Getting to Salisbury

If you’re travelling by car, then it is about an hour and half’s drive from London, and just under an hour from Portsmouth to the south east and Bath to the north west. There are direct trains from London Waterloo (taking 90 minutes or so) as well as direct services from Exeter, Tisbury, Basingstoke and Andover. The nearest airports are Southampton and Bournemouth, less than an hour away.

Quingo Scooters Accessible Getaways: Truro

This time, Quingo Scooters are taking you to the UK’s most southerly city, Truro. It is the only city in Cornwall and it is a place that is has a rich history, fascinating winding streets to explore and a vibrant cultural life to enjoy. It is a wonderful place to visit and we’re pleased to say that much of this historic city is also fully accessible to all.

Exploring Truro

Truro is one of those cities that will keep calling you back and we really fell in love with it when we visited. It is small enough that you always feel the powerful influence of the stunning Cornish countryside that surrounds it, but it is also large enough to give you plenty to do if you want to stay for a few days. It really feels like the cultural and historical heart of the region, and so our first suggestion is just to get out there and explore.

Take time to explore the city

The streets can be small and winding, but much of the city is relatively flat, making it an easy place to explore on your mobility scooter. It is a great place to shop, with lots of independent traders as well as the usual high street stores. We recommend heading along to Lemon Street Market which is packed full of local shops, cafes and galleries. And if all the shopping is leaving you feeling peckish, go to Falcatch for some truly fresh Cornish seafood. There are 90 spaces at the nearby Tabernacle car park, but it doesn’t have designated Blue Badge parking, so if that is full then Lemon Quay just around the corner is a good alternative.

Visit the awe-inspiring Truro Cathedral

You really can’t go anywhere in Truro without getting a glimpse of its magnificent cathedral. It’s three spires dominate the city and the surrounding countryside and it is well worth visiting to take a look inside too. This stunning example of Gothic Revival architecture was built in 1910 and features three beautiful circular rose windows.

Pretty much all of the Cathedral (with the exception of St Mary’s aisle) is accessible to those of us on scooters, but you can always give the team a call on 01872 276782 before you visit if you need to discuss your particular requirements. Truro Cathedral is right in the centre of the city, and although it doesn’t have its own parking facilities it is close by to many of the city centre car parks. Find out more about them here.

Quingo Scooters Accessible Getaways: Truro: Truro Cathedral

Lose yourself in the Lost Gardens

If you feel like you need a break from the hustle and bustle of Truro, then you really do have to visit the Lost Gardens of Heligan. As the name suggests, they were forgotten about for many years, hidden in the undergrowth that had covered the neglected estate. Their restoration has been a remarkable effort, and today it is now possible to enjoy some sense of the gardens as they were first intended when they were created over 400 years ago.

The team behind the gardens have done a fantastic job of making as much of this historic site as accessible as possible, and their dedicated accessibility page is a good place to begin your visit. Entry is free for anyone who has come along to help you out.

Quingo Scooters Accessible Getaways: Truro: Lost Gardens of Heligan

Enjoy family fun on the farm

No trip to Cornwall is complete without experiencing the joys of home-made Cornish ice cream. So, we highly recommend taking a short trip out of Truro to the lovely Callestick Farm, where the Parker family have been perfecting the art of making seriously delicious ice cream since they moved there in the 50s. The secret to their success is the happy band of 300 or so cows who graze there and who you can also get to meet when you visit. It’s a great day out if you’ve got kids (and even if you haven’t), and they do a great Cornish cream tea too. Just head out of Truro a few miles north west on the B3284.

Accessibility

Truro is an ancient city, with some cobbled streets that can cause issues for those of us exploring on our mobility scooters. But it is also surprisingly small and manageable, packing a lot into a relatively compact area. That means that journey times between sites are usually short, and because the city centre itself is generally flat it makes for a very accessible experience.

All of the public toilets are fully accessible and you’ll just need to pick up a RADAR key for £3 from the VisitTruro shop on Boscawen Street. Most of the car parks in central Truro are also free for Blue Badge holders. You will need to display your badge and you will also have to register on the Cornwall Council exemption scheme to use the spaces. This needs to be done before you visit, and you can either call on 0300 1234 222 to arrange this or apply online here.

The accessibility page on the Visit Truro website is a great place to start your journey.

Getting to Truro

As the only city in Cornwall, Truro is well served with transport links. Take the train from London Paddington direct, as well as services from South Wales and as far afield as Scotland. If you’re driving then follow the M5 to Exeter. From there, follow the A30 or the A38 via Plymouth before taking either the Carland Cross junction or the Chiverton roundabout for Truro. The nearest airport is in Newquay, around half an hour’s drive from Truro.

What to do

  • Animal experiences: While you’re at Blackpool Zoo, there are several activities that you can take part in such as feeding times with penguins and lemurs. If you think you’d make a great trainer, you can also try some of the zoo’s training experiences, such as being a zoo keeper for a day.
  • Keeper school courses: If you have kids who are crazy about animals they are sure to love one of the courses that helps them learn about the animals and what the job of a zoo keeper involves. The courses are available to 8-17-year-olds.

SEA LIFE Blackpool

While you’re by the sea, why not take in SEA LIFE Blackpool and discover some of the amazing creatures that call our seas their home?

The SEA LIFE centre offers an incredible insight into marine life. Let’s look at some of our favourite exhibitions…

  • Feeding shows: Feeding times at SEA LIFE Blackpool are a great highlight. Each feed is accompanied by a talk from a member of the SEA LIFE Blackpool team, who explain exactly what’s going on, teach you about the creatures in their care and answer any questions you may have. Keep a special eye out for the shark feeding times, it’s a sight you really shouldn’t miss!
  • Interact with the sharks: Unsurprisingly, the Sharks are one of the biggest attractions at SEA LIFE Blackpool. We recommend exploring the maze of tunnels that wind under their huge tank so you can watch them and then visiting the Shark Feeding Experience, where trained keepers will talk you through their diet and you can watch. For those of you feeling particularly daring, you can even go snorkelling in the display!
  • Nobby the Giant Lobster: Of all the animals at SEA LIFE Blackpool, not many have a more interesting story than Nobby the Giant Lobster. In 2009, he was caught by fishermen off the coast of North Wales. After being rescued, Nobby was brought to SEA LIFE, where he is now safe and happy. Nobby weighs in at around 10lb, and his keepers think he’s at least 100 years old!

SEA LIFE in Blackpool is fully accessible. You’ll find smooth and even floors throughout, with accessible toilets. Blue Badge parking available on the nearby Bonny Street. More information can be found here

Where to eat and drink

Throughout Blackpool, you’re sure to find plenty of places for fish and chips! Why not try out The Sea Fish and Chips Restaurant near the promenade for a true taste of the seaside? With ramped access at the entrance, you’ll find all the classics inside. From cod to fishcakes.

If you’re in the mood for fine cuisine before catching a show, Empress Grill is the perfect place for you. Located in Winter Gardens, it offers delicious British cuisine.

There are plenty of places to eat in Blackpool, whether you want breakfast, a quick snack, lunch or dinner.
