Disabled Holiday Ideas for Wheelchair Users - Shropshire - Big Bear Lodge

Big Bear Lodge is located at Melverley in Shropshire deep within the unique landscape of the Marches (the ancient name given to countryside on either side of the border between England and Wales). It offers visitors stylish comfortable accommodation with the added option of a variety of activity based leisure pursuits including paragliding and canoeing.

The lodge has step free access via a ramp up to the entrance which then has a shallow threshold into the main corridor. The ground floor bedrooms are located off this corridor with a doorway into the open plan living area at the far end. The bedrooms have en-suite wet-rooms but please note these have narrow dimensions and no room for lateral transfer to the toilet. However there is an external wet-room/toilet facility located on the balcony adjacent to the front entrance which has right hand transfer and wheelchair turning space.
