The Visitor Centre and toilets are accessible via level surface through the main Visitor Centre entrance or via a side door with ramp access.
There is an adapted toilet at the Visitor Centre.
Visitors supported by carers are entitled to a complementary entry for their support worker/carer. Attendants cannot be provided by Markshall Estate.
We have a network of hard surfaced paths providing full wheelchair and pushchair access from the Visitor Centre through the central area of the Arboretum, up to the Walled Garden.
The path network is generally level with the exception of the path from the Visitor Centre to the old Marks Hall site which has reasonably steep incline – alternate level routes are available.
Paths in the wider Arboretum are generally grass rides.
The Woodland Walks are mostly on surfaced paths.
Two manual wheelchairs are available for loan subject to availability (pre-booking is advised – contact us).
Two volunteer driven golf buggies (1 x 3-seat, 1 x 5-seat) are available for use by visitors with restricted mobility. The buggies are only available in the spring and summer months and booking is essential. Charges apply. Contact us to book.
Assistance dogs are welcomed anywhere onsite.
