Strawberry Field is proud to lead the way in accessibility and we are determined to ensure it remains one of the most accessible tourist attractions in the whole of the UK.
Throughout our visitor attraction, we have provided the features necessary to ensure an inclusive, accessible environment that allows us to welcome all visitors from all walks of life.
If you are planning a trip to Strawberry Field and you require additional support, please find a list below of some of the features we are both proud of and pleased to provide to our visitors every day.
We have parking spaces available on-site, including a number of accessible parking spaces that are conveniently placed towards our main entrance.

Strawberry Field is one of the first UK attractions to offer Changing Places facilities. Changing Places toilets are designed to provide more space and equipment than a conventional wheelchair-accessible toilet and aim to meet the needs of people of all ages who need help dealing with their intimate hygiene.
