Accommodation: One of our Towan holiday homes offers Wheelchair-Friendly Holiday accommodation
The Towan Accessible Holiday Home at Monkey Tree Holiday Park offers spacious self-catering caravan accommodation for up to six guests in two twin rooms and one pull out sofa in the living area.
This is currently our only Wheelchair Friendly Holiday Home, putting it in high demand. It has been carefully created to accommodate the needs of users with limited mobility. Special consideration has been given to providing easy access and excellent facilities for wheelchair users throughout this leisure home. Wide sliding doors, open spaces and uncluttered design are key to creating a functional but stylish environment for everybody to enjoy.
The bedrooms are spacious with ample storage and full accessibility. The main bedroom has been fitted with moveable trapeze lift handles over the two single beds as a lifting aid. Every effort has been made to provide the utmost practicality and functionality to the shower room. The recessed entry level shower tray, folding seat, support bars and grab rails offer all the reassurance necessary without any compromise on style.
The kitchen is well-equipped with full-size oven & hob, range of kitchen equipment and utensils, microwave oven, spacious work surfaces and storage, under-counter fridge and separate dining area.
You will also have adjoining parking.
The majority of our other holiday homes are not wheelchair accessible due to entry steps.
