The shop and play areas also provide step‑free access, though some internal areas may vary.
The route to the meadow walk involves steep ramps, slopes and grassy surfaces.
Various routes around the property include very steep ramps/slopes or uneven surfaces, meaning not all paths are easily accessible.

Several paths are wide enough for wheelchair users, though surface conditions vary with the weather.

Accessible picnic benches are available at the front of the hall and in the trim trail play area.
