I visit frequently. Staff are helpful and enthusiastic. Being disabled, I have had to ask for help getting around but they have motorised scooters to borrow which is helpful (Ring ahead to be sure one is available). New museum is very good, and presentation of the whole place is excellent. Everywhere has ramps, there are easy open doors on the main building, and cafe staff will carry trays if necessary. Quite apart from accessibility, the place is a brilliant centre for memorials, thought provoking, peaceful yet not overly sombre because of the nature- filled setting.
