Access Statement for “Nundeeps” Guest Accommodation - page 1

INTRODUCTION

 

Nundeeps is situated in a quiet cul-de-sac on St. Mary’s, the largest of the islands that make up the Isles of Scilly.

It is run by Michaela Hawkins, who is committed to ensuring that the needs of all her guests are met at all times. Michaela will make sure that her guests have the most enjoyable and comfortable stay possible.  However, the bedrooms are all on the first floor and therefore not suitable for wheelchair users, or anyone who has difficulty in negotiating stairs.
