Autism, Aspergers & ADHD friendly Holidays
Holidays are anxious times for everyone and especially for children and adults with Autism, Aspergers or ADHD.
Inclusion is at the centre of what we provide as a holiday resource.
Many like routines or rituals and social interaction is a common difficulty. Often the physical space can be a real problem in a new situation and this can highlight issues with gross and fine motor skills.
To many, these complexities and the need for space restricts the options available for suitable holiday venues. The result can often be that such restrictions have the effect of excluding those who most need a holiday.
Here, everyone is free to roam in the wide open spaces, the 25 acres of parklands, private woods and grounds.
We are a third of a mile from the nearest road so we have no traffic concerns. Strollers can stroll, walkers can walk and runners can run without fear or hindrance!
We have no neighbours for as far as the eye can see and we have no noise concerns. All our properties have exceptionally high acoustic panel insulation, so we manage noise between properties to the best of our abilities.
