Accessibility at Furzey Gardens
Furzey Gardens is on a hill and the informal woodland paths and gradients mean that parts of that the garden are not wheelchair accessible
Our informal garden paths are narrow, twisting. steep in places and can be slippery. We do have an easier path route if you have difficulty walking or use a mobility device. However even this route will not be suitable for some wheelchair users or some with mobility issues and requires the utmost care by all users.

Toilets available when tea rooms open
Toilets are available for visitors to use when the tea rooms are open.
Please limit your use of the toilet facilities. As you will appreciate, toilets are a significant risk in transmission of the virus and although we will have a regular cleaning schedule in place, we are not able to clean the toilets after every use so it is for the safety of our visitors that we are trying to limit their usage.
The toilets and tea rooms are open from 10am to 4pm (last orders).
-
Parking
There is limited parking available at Furzey Gardens. We do not own the car park adjacent to the gardens but are grateful that it can be used for our visitors. However, during school holidays the car park can quickly become full and parking is not available in the immediate vicinity due to narrow lanes, farm access and out of consideration for our neighbours.
We suggest that you do not arrive at the very start of your slot, to allow you to park and enter the gardens easily while maintaining social distance.
Please try and park a car’s width from other cars where at all possible to aid social distancing.
We apologise for any inconvenience you may experience.

Refreshments
The tea rooms are open every day from 10am to 4pm (last orders).
The tea rooms provide training and work experience for people with learning disabilities. Thank you for your custom, which supports this work.
