Share CentreThis is an adventure centre which caters for people with disabilities. You can go in a group for a day of activity or for a weekend or for a longer stay. All the information is included in their website. Its located on the shores of Upper Lough Erne. Florence CourtOwned by the National Trust, this stately home is set in some lovely grounds. There are no special rates into National Trust properties, but you can buy a year pass which will save you money and this can be used to get into any of their properties and sites in the UK. There are 2 rates here, one for the grounds and then a separate charge for the house. The house itself is largely unaccessible, you can get into the ground floor but thats it. There is a great cafe in the grounds and a shop, along with an accessible toilet. We really struggled here, the majority of the paths had deep gravel and we were knackered pushing the chair about. But then we discovered you can borrow scooters from the rangers office, and this made a big difference. I know that this would not suit everyone though, so you should be aware that this place will not be suitable for those who rely on someone to push them.
