Wheelchair-Friendly Accommodation: The 1 For All Room

One of the many highlights of Somerset View Guest House is our dedicated 1 For All room, specially designed to cater to guests needing wheelchair-friendly accommodations. This room is the result of a collaborative effort with Brandon Beack, a celebrated South African wheelchair racer and founder of the Walking with Brandon Foundation. Brandon’s invaluable input helped us create a space that is truly accessible, equipped with every amenity that a guest in a wheelchair might need.

‍

The 1 For All room is thoughtfully designed for guests needing wheelchair-friendly accommodations with features like a wide shower that accommodates a wheelchair and a sturdy handle by the toilet for added support. Wide doorways and level entrances ensure easy access, while ample space within the room allows for manoeuvrability. Furniture in the room, including beds and tables, is positioned at appropriate heights for guest in wheelchairs to reach comfortably.

‍

Bathroom facilities include roll-in showers with grab bars and accessible sinks and toilets equipped with grab bars.

Our commitment to accessibility extends beyond the 1 For All room. Asphalt paths surround the house, providing smooth, wheelchair-friendly access to all areas. A ramp connects the upper level of the facility to the pool area, ensuring that the entire premises can be enjoyed by everyone, regardless of their physical limitations.
