If you’re
a keen reader, then seeking out new bookshops is surely one of the great
pleasures in your life. For many of us, discovering a hidden gem in a new town
or city can be a getaway highlight.
But away
from the big chains like Waterstones (which are generally modern and
accessible, with lifts and wider entrances), what are the options? How accessible
are many of the smaller, independent stores?
Well, to
help you out, here is Quingo Scooters’ guide to the five best accessible UK bookshops.

like a city of endless opportunity. But that incredible scale can sometimes
mean that it’s not always easy to find what you’re looking for. Just ask any

to L.A., the one thing that you will want to seek out is some of the great food
on offer. The city’s restaurants reflect the remarkable mix of cultures that
you find here. And the sheer size of the place means that the choice of places
to eat out is vast.

over a remarkable 84 million acres, the USA’s National Park network has grown

biggest draws.
The
National Park Service has done an excellent job of making them as open and
accessible as possible. So with that in mind, here is Quingo Scooters’ pick of
the very best accessible trails across US National Parks.

In the
USA everything is bigger: and its trees are no different.
