Overcombe

At a glance:
• Sleeps 10 guests in Bigbury-on-Sea, South Devon

Accessible features:
• Five ground floor bedrooms and five ground floor bathrooms
• All social living areas are set over one level
• A collapsible ramp is available on request

Things to consider:
Overcombe is a single-level home suitable for guests who are able to manage a couple of steps around the internal and external areas. There are two shallow steps between the entryway and living area which we'd recommend requesting the ramp to help navigate. There's also one step down to the en-suite in bedroom five, which has a shower over the bath, rather than a cubicle.

Pentyak

At a glance:
• Sleeps 12 - 14 guests in Harlyn Bay, North Cornwall

Accessible features:
• Step-free access to the house from the parking area
• Three ground floor bedrooms and three ground floor bathrooms
• Ground floor "den" with an additional bed, living space and en-suite
• Open plan social spaces and wide corridors
• Sloping lawn from the living area to the lower garden

Things to consider:
Pentyak has a gravel parking area. To help navigate this, cars can be parked outside the front door where there's a large coir mat to aid guests using crutches, wheelchairs and mobility scooters.

The master bedroom and en-suite are suitable for guests with limited mobility. There are two entrances: a conventional door opening inwards from the hallway, and sliding doors from the patio beyond the living area. The first entrance doesn't have any raised thresholds and is carpeted. The patio doors are wider but have a lip.

Sea Breezes

At a glance:
• Sleeps 10 - 12 guests in Daymer Bay, North Cornwall

Accessible features:
• Step-free access from the parking area
• Two ground floor bedrooms and two ground floor bathrooms
• Wood and tiled floors throughout the kitchen, living and dining area

Things to consider:
Sea Breezes has a gravel parking area. One of the two ground floor bedrooms has bunk beds, so we'd recommend bedroom five as the most spacious room for guests with limited mobility. The en-suite has a hand rail in the shower, but the pebbled floor means it's not completely flat underfoot.
