You might
think that, by their very nature, castles aren’t the most accessible of sites
to visit. After all, their entire reason for existing is to be inaccessible and
difficult to get around!
But
surprisingly, many of the UK’s very best castles are relatively easy to explore,
and the teams who run them have made a lot of effort to make these ancient
buildings open to all. Many also have wonderful grounds and gardens to enjoy.
So, with
that in mind, here is Quingo Scooters’ guide to the UK’s best and most accessible
castles.
New Year’s Eve is a
great time to meet up with friends and family. It is a chance to look back on
the year that has just gone, and to look ahead to the one to come.
And with so many great
accessible events out there this year, we wanted to bring you just a few of the
best.
So, brush up on the lyrics to Auld Lang Syne, and head to one of Quingo Scooters’ picks of the best accessible New Year events.
Pantomimes are an
essential part of the holiday season. Whether you’ve got kids in tow, or
friends and family who need entertaining, there is nothing quite like a show to
get you in the festive mood.
From traditional pantos to something a little different, we’ve scoured the country to find the most accessible shows for you this year. So, here is Quingo Scooters’ pick of the very best accessible pantomimes in the UK.

Looking to get out and
about this festive season? Christmas is a wonderful time of the year, and a

Countdown to Christmas with the Living Advent Calendar,
Saltaire
If you want a unique
and accessible Christmas experience, then this Advent trail in Saltaire, West
Yorkshire, is one of the best.
Is there anything better
to get you in a festive mood than a Christmas market? They bring together
everything that is best about the time of the year. Great food and drink, local
handicrafts and a warm atmosphere. And because they are often outside, they are
one of the most accessible activities you can enjoy this time of year.
But while we’ve seen a
rise in the number of the markets over recent years, they’re not all created
equal. And at a time of year when time and money is at a premium, you don’t
want to be wasting either.
