Wheelchair Accessible Apartments - Zalakaros, Hungary


Four spacious ground floor wheelchair accessible apartments, each sleeping up to four people. The buildings were designed by the owner who has a disability who is a paraplegic [t3/t4].

Each accessible apartment comprises a large living/dining area with a double bed and good quality mattress, two bedside cabinets, mirrored double wardrobe, chest of drawers, settee and two chairs with coffee table, and satellite t.v. There is a fully fitted kitchen with wall and floor cupboards, breakfast bar with stools, four ring hob, microwave oven, kettle and toaster. All pans, crockery and utensils are also provided, as is an iron, ironing board and foldaway clothes airer. All taps in the apartments are lever operated.

All sheets and bedding are provided, but please bring your own towels.
The bedroom contains a double bed and two bedside cabinets and the light switches are accessible from just above the bed as well as the doorway.

The accessible bathroom is a wheel in shower room, fully tiled from floor to ceiling. There is a built in padded seat in one corner of the room which has been designed at wheelchair height, to enable easy transfer. The shower is wall mounted at two possible mounting points, standing or sitting, and soft grip grab rails have been strategically mounted to the walls. The wash basin allows enough room for a wheelchair to fit easily underneath and the toilet has two lift up support arms. All doors are one metre wide to allow easy access around the apartment.

Use of an automatic washing machine, with soap powder and fabric conditioner is available at a small charge and this is housed in a separate building.

We also have a hoist available should one be required, there is no cost for this item.

The swimming pool has been designed at the same height as a wheelchair to allow easy slide across transfer onto the poolside. The accessible pool also incorporates a sloped ramp as well as steps, leading into the water. Ramped paving surrounds the pool and there is a handrail on one of the ramps.

At the far end of the pool there is a large summerhouse with 360* views of the surrounding countryside. There are two large tables and benches, ice cream sales and of course ice cold beer and table football. In high season there is a barbecue and local entertainment each Saturday evening, at a small cost, we also provide free local wine for the evening too.

* A cyclone hand tracker is available for use, at no extra cost, but all I ask is that if you break it, please repair it. It has not broken yet though, so I don't anticipate any problems arising.

* Jet skiing [either with or without instructor] is just a short distance along the road and this is situated in the grounds of a lovely restaurant.

* Quad biking is also a short distance away.

* A well stocked fishing lake, just along the road.

* Trike rides on my Boom Mantis.

Any other requests, such as cots or highchairs etc, please do not hesitate to e-mail or telephone.

Telephone booking or e-mail booking is available.
