My partner and I have decided to go away for a fun weekend with the kids in tow. We are planning on driving to Bath this summer.
We are planning on booking a room at a hotel or BnB. How do I politely find out about disability friendly activities and accommodation? If you can recommend anything I will definitely be grateful. Where do I find information on where to eat and what to do in the city as well. Thanks in advance.

Thank you. I have come up with a potential itinerary for our weekend trip next month. I have another question to ask- are there any specific things to do as a family?

Sorry don't know why the writing has turned red. It doesn't mean anything.

Thanks for the information. We are going to Bath the first week of June. My partner and I will definitely check out the links and possibly send some emails too.

Also I have a question are there any wheelchair friendly cottages or not?

Thanks for your suggestions. We are going to Bath tomorrow morning for five days. I have packed a suitcase of things for our trip. One more question can you recommend any museums? Preferably ones that are generally tolerant of children.
