Accessibility
Although the paths around the Walled Garden and Rock Garden are smoother and more even, the initial gravel and slope mean that the overall recommendation is not to use wheelchairs unless someone has checked the suitability beforehand for your particular needs/equipment. The upper level of the gardens is accessed via a steep and uneven pathway, so it is not suitable. Riverhill is not suitable for motorised scooters. The shop, cafe, and cafe terrace are accessible by wheelchair. However, please be aware that the entrance and disabled parking area are gravelled.
There is an accessible route marked on the map for those who prefer their paths smooth and even, available at the ticket office.
Top Top For Children
Little ones can pop up to the den building woods between 2pm and 4pm on a weekend or School Holiday, and see if they can track down our Yeti. They can also build dens in the woods.
