Weymouth and Portland - The Accessible Resort

One of the most enjoyable things in life is a good holiday or an enjoyable day out. It is therefore hoped that the information on this website will provide a better awareness of the facilities in our area for people with accessibility requirements.

Weymouth is an ideal resort with a panoramic Esplanade, town shopping complex, harbourside and many beautiful gardens and accessible attractions. The Esplanade, town centre and harbourside have level access and most junctions have dropped kerbs.

What's more, with accessible attractions, subtitled and audio described movies at the local cinema and much more besides, there's never been a better time to make Weymouth and Portland the place to be.

When planning a visit, the question of access is always a key factor. With specific needs differing, it is essential to check for yourself, that your requirements can be met. This should minimise frustration and disappointment. We hope both visitors and residents alike find this information useful, and that it will encourage you explore the area, with more confidence.

This area of the website mainly covers wheelchair and mobility access. However, it is not fully comprehensive and we recommend that all visitors check the suitability of any attraction or accommodation for themselves before planning a visit. We would also advise those visitors requiring access to braille, large print or audio information to check the availability of such services before planning your visit.
