How accessible is Firle Place?

The ground floor is accessible to wheelchair users for whom tickets are half the usual adult price.  Due to the limitations of this Grade I listed building we regret there is no lift and therefore no access to the first floor.

Due to the fragility of flooring and furniture we are unable to admit powered/battery wheelchairs

For adults who require the assistance of a carer, the accompanying carer receives free entry.  Book one ticket on-line and request free carer ticket on arrival.  Proof of disability and/or carer status may be required.

For under 16s requiring the assistance of a carer, the child has free entry, the adult pays standard entry price

There is an accessible lavatory by the tea room

Is there a garden to walk around?

There are no formal gardens open to the public at Firle Place.  There are some beautiful walks through the wider estate.
