3 days in Cheshire: an accessible itinerary
3 days For wheelchair & limited mobility Built from visitor-rated places
Three days in Cheshire, shaped around short hops and places that state disabled access. Day one is the gentlest: Blue Planet Aquarium, then lunch at Grace Arms just 0.9 miles down the road with a 5/5 food hygiene rating, and the Cheshire Military Museum 6 miles on. Day two stretches a little — 30.8 miles to Waterworld — but the afternoon is easy, with Brampton Museum only 1.1 miles away.
Day three crosses into Liverpool, 41.6 miles, and then barely moves: World Museum Liverpool, lunch at The Welkin 0.3 miles away (also 5/5 for hygiene), and the Museum of Liverpool a further 0.4 miles. For beds, all four stays list disabled access — The Britannia Hotel in Manchester sits 0.3 miles from Manchester Piccadilly, while De Vere Cranage Estate is 1.3 miles from Holmes Chapel station. Arriving by train, the nearest station to Cheshire is Winsford. Ring ahead about parking, accessible toilets and lifts before you book.

Day 1
A soft start: Blue Planet Aquarium, which states disabled access, then just 0.9 miles to Grace Arms for lunch (food hygiene rating 5/5), and 6 miles on to the Cheshire Military Museum, also stating disabled access. Check parking, accessible toilets and lift access with each one before you book.
Day 2
The longest drive of the trip comes first — 30.8 miles to Waterworld, which states disabled access — so take it steadily and keep the afternoon short: Brampton Museum is only 1.1 miles away and also states disabled access. Worth ringing both about blue badge parking and changing facilities beforehand.
Day 3
A 41.6-mile run into Liverpool, then almost no travelling at all: World Museum Liverpool, lunch 0.3 miles away at The Welkin (5/5 for food hygiene), and the Museum of Liverpool a further 0.4 miles. Both museums state disabled access, but confirm lifts and accessible toilets on the day you're visiting.
