Access Information, Accessibility Statements

Each of the lodges and the Paxton Centre have been purpose built to ensure people affected by disability can make full use of all the facilities at Homelands.

All lodges and the Paxton Centre offer level access and widened door frames.

There are two wheelchair accessible paths in and out of Homelands; one of these paths leads to the golf course and road outside Homelands and the other leads to the main street in Lundin Links where all the shops and bus stops can be found.

All lodges have Guldmann H-frame ceiling tracking hoists in each of the ground floor bedrooms and in the wet room. Each lodge has one electric profiling bed with an Invacare Softform Premier Active 2 airflow mattress in the each ground floor bedroom.

All our lodges feature a full wet room on the ground floor with a pull down seat in the shower area, (various shower chairs and shower trollies are also available, free of charge, on request, please see list below). Drummochy, Cardy and Durham lodges each have clos-o-mat toilets in the wet room.
