DISABLED

Disabled visitors are invited to seek guidance from reception staff on arrival at the Grounds Office who will direct them if appropriate to park close to the castle. A full tour of the castle includes three floors and it is not possible to avoid stairs.

The whole ground floor is accessible by wheelchair from the disabled parking area and gives access to several display rooms, the gift shop, restaurant, lavatories (including disabled lavatory) and an audio-visual presentation on the castle. Free use of a wheelchair is available if required.

An electric limited mobility scooter may be hired at a charge of £3.50 giving access to the grounds – all proceeds are passed to Highland Perthshire Shop Mobility to help them extend the provision of such services.

The audio visual facility provides a rolling 25 minute display showing many aspects of the castle. It is principally intended for disabled visitors who are given priority but is otherwise open to all.
