Accessible Holidays
Finding suitable holiday accommodation can be difficult and often frustrating when you’re living with motor neuron disease (MND).
That’s why we offer you access to two specialist holiday homes in stunning Scottish locations. Fully equipped to meet your needs, you can spend more time making precious memories with the ones you love.
Who can stay at our specialist holiday homes?
If you, or someone in your group, has MND and lives in Scotland you can book one of our holiday homes every 12 months for free. You can also get 50% off a second booking within 12 months.
If you don’t have an MND diagnosis but have a disability or health condition, you can also stay in our specialist holiday accommodation. However, you will have to pay a fee to do this.
Please note: we will prioritise bookings by people living with MND in Scotland. This means, if you have MND but live outside of Scotland or if no one on your trip has MND, you can only book our accommodation 4 weeks in advance of your stay. Bookings are not final until a confirmation email has been sent from our team.
Travelling to our holiday accommodation?
We understand it can be challenging to find accessible holiday accommodation and we want to make it as easy as possible to make memories with your loved ones with a break away. That’s why we have partnered with Allied Mobility to provide complimentary WAVs (wheelchair accessible vehicles) for transport to and from our holiday lodges in St Andrews and Oban.
As the UK’s leading wheelchair accessible vehicle provider, Allied Mobility knows how important your independence is. Having safe and comfortable transportation to help you get out and about is key. With a wide range of cars available to suit a variety of wheelchairs and powerchairs, Allied will help you pick the best option for you and your needs.
WAVs are available on all new bookings to our holiday lodges, and Allied Mobility will drop off and pick up the vehicle so you can enjoy it for the duration of your stay.
“We just wanted to say a huge thank you … for the hire of the mobility van. It has certainly made a difference and enabled my dad to get out and about in the comfort of his electric chair in St Andrews with MND Scotland. We will be forever thankful to both organisations for helping us to make memories.”
Please note that this service is only provided to those affected by MND and their families, only available to residents of Scotland. Subject to availability.
“It is very difficult to find accommodation that is adapted for someone with a disability. So it was really nice to get the chance to have a break away from home, knowing that things were in place to let us enjoy quality time together as a couple.” - Jim Grant
