Holiday cottages for families with a disabled child
Renting a self-catering cottage is a great way to relax at your own pace and soak up the atmosphere of your surroundings, where you can cook the food you love best and unwind in the peace of your own private garden.
If you are planning on a holiday in a rented cottage but you have a disabled child, then rest-assured that there are plenty of lodges which come fully-equipped with everything you need to make access for your child very easy, to put your mind at ease and make your holiday worry-free. Cottages are the perfect accommodation for disability and accessibility needs, as most of them feel as though they have been designed just to make your break go perfectly!
Many cottages are often on one level, like bungalows, which makes wheelchair access very easy. You will not have to worry about flights of stairs for your child and they will feel more independent without having to be carried or having to go in a stair lift. There are also ramped entries to the lodging, as well as ramps inside, or no steps at all throughout the cottage.
More facilities available to your child while on holiday
If you have worries about bathing your child when on holiday, then you do not need these worries anymore as wet rooms are available in these cottages, with grab bars and disabled toilets. There are also grab bars in general throughout the accommodation, along with wider door entries and turning points. All of these little things mean that there will be a lot less for you to worry about as a parent with a disabled child on holiday, and with panic buttons placed throughout some rooms, just in case of accidents, your mind will definitely be put at ease when renting a holiday cottage for you and your family.
Renting a cottage with its own private pool is a wonderful way to make your break all the more special, and if you are coming with children, then this makes it even more exciting for them. You may have worries about getting into a pool and going swimming with your child, but pool hoists can be found on cottages equipped for disabled use, which means that access to the pool will be very simple and your child will not feel left out at all.
There are also other facilities which will make your cottage break with your disabled child a lot more stress-free, as electric beds and electric chairs are one of the amenities provided in holiday lodges of this kind. Being able to lower the beds and chairs electronically is a great way to let your child feel more independent and without having to rely on their parents to get out of their wheelchair, and this will make their break away, as well as yours, a lot more relaxing.
For peace of mind and the perfect break away, renting a holiday cottage is a wonderful way to have a family holiday if your child has a wheelchair or has other accessibility problems.
