The Lin Berwick Trust The Lin Berwick Trust, The Christopher Centre, 10 Gainsborough St, Sudbury CO10 2EU, UK

The Lin Berwick Trust has the highest standard of facilities and equipment for those with disabilities who need 24/7 care. We have three self-catering cottages all sleeping six people in Norfolk, Cornwall and on the Firth of Forth in Scotland. Each property has a disability suite that is second to none both in equipment and space.
 
All our cottages are furnished to VisitBritain’s four-star self-catering standard and considerably better equipped than is required for VisitBritain’s accessibility rating of “Access Exceptional”. The spacious properties have been designed for the comfort of the disabled visitor as well as that of their family members or carers, and are in attractive village or country settings. Each property has a House Manager who meets and greets visitors on their arrival and explains how all the items of equipment work.  They are contactable in an emergency during your stay.

Having our properties in such well-known tourist areas ensures that our visitors, both disabled and able-bodied, can find plenty to do while on holiday. There are attractions for all ages  with disability access in each of these tourist areas, from exciting action activities to National Trust properties, musical events and, of course, restaurants, pubs and shopping opportunities.   Yet each property's location is unique and offers the whole family a different holiday experience. 

• We provide ideal family accommodation for the severely disabled
• Our properties ensure privacy, security and outstanding disability facilities
• We exceed the very stringent demands of VisitBritain's “Access Exceptional” rating .
