Notes from the company

What Footsteps Tours says on its own page, word for word (we have not checked it ourselves):

  • Highclere Castle is of course a historic and listed building built in another era, but the main State Rooms & Exhibition are accessible for manual wheelchairs.
  • Given the steep and long staircases, the upstairs gallery and bedrooms are only accessible for those able to walk at reasonable speed unaided, for their own safety.
  • Motorised wheelchairs are very useful to use around the Castle lawns should you choose to bring one.

Questions worth asking before you book

  • How many steps are there up to the coach, and is there a handrail?
  • Can a walking stick, frame, rollator or wheelchair travel on this coach?
  • How far is the walk from the coach drop-off to the main sights, and is the ground flat?
  • Are there toilet and seating stops, and how long is the free time?
