ACCESSIBILITy & Inclusivity
At eaton manor
At Eaton Manor we often accommodate up to four generations in one cottage, and therefore we realise the importance of making our cottages as accessible and inclusive as possible to all guests.
If anyone in your group has particular access requirements, we welcome the opportunity to show you around before booking.

We’re Here to Help With Accessible Holiday Cottages
We understand how difficult it is for guests to bring everything they might need for those with reduced mobility, and so we try and provide as much as we can to make life a bit easier when staying at Eaton Manor.
When we respond to an enquiry or take a booking, we enquire about the requirements of each group. On occasions, we suggest alternative cottages which may better suit the group’s needs e.g. downstairs bedrooms, walk-in showers etc.
