There's a list of recommended accommodation providers here:
http://www.myguideireland.com/ireland-by -wheelchair

The official tourism site also has links to downloadable brochures which detail all the approved accessible accommodation in the country: http://www.discoverireland.ie

It's against the law for any new buildings to be erected without provided wheelchair access, and existing hotels etc are obliged to provide facilities too. Not all of them have done the necessary work, but most have.

The disability network RADAR in the UK produce an excellent guide to accessible holidays in the UK and Ireland, you can order it online here:

My grandfather is coming to live with us for a while and i want to make things easy for him! And what can i take into consideration with regards to SAFETY when redesigning my house?

Thank You! (**,)

I have grab bars in the bathroom..toilet and shower..seat in the shower, handicap toilet, but a riser works just as well. Ramp into the house, have a carpenter make about a 4 inch platform for a comfortable chair to sit on, to make it easier for him to get in and out of..I also have a lift chair, but they are to expensive for a short time visit..your doors should be OK..one other thing raise the bed with blocks of wood that are about the same size as a brick..helps immensely..no throw rugs..lucky you to have a grandfather...and lucky him for having you..Enjoy your visit..

Does anyone know any good wheelchair accessible accommodation in Blackpool. I am looking for accommodation as near all the attractions as possible, I can not walk at all. I am not too bothered about price (within reason) my parents whom I am going with do not want to pay more than £35 per person per night (it took some doing getting them to pay that much!). We also need parking facilities. We are looking for B & B hotels. The accommodation also needs to be wheelchair accessible once inside.
