Accessible Cheltenham

Accessible Cheltenham - Cheltenham Made Easy (Information for visitors with disabilities)

Cheltenham is a town which welcomes everyone. The compact town centre means that visitors do not need to travel far to take in all the town’s delights. Despite the historic nature of the Regency architecture, many of our buildings, particularly larger hotels and visitor attractions, have been adapted to make them accessible for those with physical disabilities.

Many attractions, venues, and events are also working to ensure that neurodiverse visitors can fully enjoy them. If contacted, they will share quieter opening hours, details of relaxed performances, or help you find quiet spaces if needed during your visit.

Transport

Train
The train station is 1 mile from the town centre with signposted walking routes and regular buses or taxis on hand to transport visitors.

Taxis 
A list of wheelchair accessible taxis can be found on the Cheltenham Borough Council website.

Buses
Stagecoach have a fleet of low floor, easy access buses which can carry a limited number of wheelchairs and approved mobility scooters. They always try to show when these buses will be in use on their timetables.
