♿️ Is Granada wheelchair accessible? Here’s what we found! 🇪🇸

Granada is absolutely beautiful, but travelling around the city in a wheelchair definitely takes some planning. There are steep hills, cobbled streets, steps and areas that just aren’t accessible.
But that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy the city! ❤️

We were able to visit parts of the Alhambra, explore Granada Cathedral, take accessible red mini buses up the hills and find an accessible route alongside the river.

My biggest tip? Plan your route before you go so you know where you can access and how you’re going to get there.

Have you visited Granada in a wheelchair? What was your experience?

Looking for a wheelchair accessible beach in Yorkshire UK? 🇬🇧

Here are our top 4 tips for visiting the beach in Filey, North Yorkshire:

1. Check ahead for Blue Badge Parking ♿️. Check spaces at West Avenue, Station Avenue and Country Park car parks, as dedicated accessible parking near Coble Landing is limited.

2. Making the most of beach accessibility 🏖. Filey has a sandy beach which can be difficult to navigate in a wheelchair, therefore stick to the main tarmac promenade for easy access.

3. Finding accessible toilet facilities 🚽. Accessible public toilets are available at locations including Filey Beach and Glen Gardens. A Changing Spaces toilet can be found at Filey Foreshore YO14 9LA.

4. Plan your accessible trip in advance 👩🏻‍🦽. Check routes, parking and toilet facilities before travelling as some areas of Filey have steep slopes and uneven access.

♿️ Is Hotel Selu in Córdoba wheelchair accessible?

We stayed here for 2 nights and were really impressed with the accessible room.

It was spacious, easy to manoeuvre around and the bathroom had a really good wheel-in shower with a fold-down seat. There was also a lower sink and a pull-down rail in the wardrobe.

And the location? Another big plus. 👩🏻‍🦽📍 The hotel is within easy walking distance of many of Córdoba’s main attractions, making it a great base for exploring the city.

Breakfast had a good choice too, and overall we really enjoyed our stay.

If you’re planning an accessible trip to Córdoba, save this Reel for later! 🇪🇸♿️
