Single storey holiday accommodation is necessary for many disabled people who want to avoid tripping hazards. The cottages and pine lodges shown on this list are all single story or bungalows. They are also pet-friendly so that the pet dog, or two or more, may also come on the holiday.

Rugs, long curtains and throws of sofas can all be trip hazards for people using a walking stick or a frame and the last thing any frail or elderly person wants to risk is a fall. Owners of accommodation tailored to people with walking impairments are aware of this and will have made their holiday home as safe and risk free as possible.

Going on holiday with a dog usually means finding a cottage to rent within a two or three hour drive maximum. There are numerous other pet-friendly holiday homes that are bungalows or apartments on one level.

Often, small cottages that sleep two people are on one level but are not necessarily categorized as single storey. It may be worth checking pet-friendly cottages for two people that have disabled access - a number will have accommodation on the same level.
