Cottage breaks with a hoist available

Arranging a hoist for your cottage holiday

There are local companies and the Red Cross who will deliver a hoist for guests arrival and collect on departure. Cottage owners would give these details to guests for them to book a hoist.

There is no problem obtaining hoists and bed blocks, oxygen etc from specialist companies dealing with equipment for disabled people. Guests normally organise this separately as they know exactly what they need. Cottage owners of accommodation designed for disabled people can usually provide a list from the company of what they can provide and the price. It may also be possible for UK residents with severe disabilities to get funding for their holiday which pays for the equipment needed.

Every UK Holiday Cottage has a Mobility Access Statement

Read the Mobility Access Statement published on the cottages own website, these details each mobility aid or device available. Most UK and Irish cottage owners always only to ready to discuss guest’s personal requirements and advise them of what can be provided.
