If you need to find a holiday home where a wheelchair user can easily get in and out please see wheelchair accessible cottages. A range of self-catering cottages on the coast is shown below, these are dispersed in England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Choose a cottage location and have a great time by the sea. Most people know about English and Welsh seaside towns and beaches and many of these have miles of wheelchair friendly sea front paths. The phototgraph shown of Clacton-on-Sea in Essex is one good example. There are many others including Southend-on-Sea in Essex, Sidmouth in Devon, Prestatyn and Rhyl in north Wales.

Wales certainly has many good Blue Flag beaches. Lesser known are the stunning beaches of Ireland and Scotland, places where seals sunbathe and dolphins can be spotted frolicking near the beach. Admittedly, unless you are very fortunate, sunshine is not the draw for beaches in Scotland and Ireland. However, a fascinating seaside break awaits. See old fishing villages, full of character and grit. See the fishermen's cottages huddled in groups and capture something of the spirit. Take a boat trip around the coast to view birds in their thousands, saunter along sea fronts to take in the views and people watch. So many fabulous places to visit. Start clicking on the cottages shown below and find that special location for you. Talk to the cottage owners to find out more about wheelchair friendly places to visit.
