Mobility / Wheelchair Support

The museum is housed in an old market building with sloping granite floors and some uneven surfaces. The front door has a set of steps and they have flat access through an entrance on the right side of the building. There is lift access to all floors and staff are really happy to answer any accessibility queries you may have. Email: info@museumofcornishlife.co.uk Tel: 01326 564027

There are disabled toilets, which have enough room for wheelchairs. There are some steps in some areas. The lift was accessible but there is a steep slope and some even flooring to consider. There are also some cobbles to consider when using the side entrance access for wheelchairs and mobility aids.

Vision Impairment Support

Whilst mainly all flat, we feel there were some steps which may cause people with visual impairment some problems. There is a helpful 6 minute audio guide on the accessibility page: https://museumofcornishlife.co.uk/visit/access/
