Future Plans
The Stable is compact and cannot be enlarged due to its location within the
site of a listed building. For this reason it is not suitable for wheel
chairs due to space constraints, but may be appropriate for people with other
restrictions. If we can assist any further in this respect do please let us
know.
We welcome your feedback to help us continuously
improve.
