It is\u00a0a truly beautiful\u00a0setting.\u00a0And formany families, holidays can\u00a0feel\u00a0daunting.\u00a0Finding\u00a0somewhere\u00a0that works for wheelchair users, meets sensory needs, and still feels like a proper break is rare.\u00a0Brickhouse Farm Cottages offered that and more.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>The cottages overlook a small lake, which at this time of year was full of ducks, geese, and ducklings\u00a0which\u00a0was\u00a0a daily source of excitement for the children.\u00a0<em>Sarah shared, \u201cThe real stars of the show were the ducks with their ducklings and the geese with their goslings. It was\u00a0very special\u00a0to wake up to their little faces at your door every day.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>On site, families could enjoy a caf\u00e9 serving wood-fired pizzas and local ice cream, as well as shared spaces that made it easy to meet, chat, and relax together. For many, it was the chance to connect with other DFSG families that meant the most. Becci shared,\u00a0<em>\u201cIt was really great meeting other families and having them next door. We could all share experiences, and the children got to know and play with each other.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Accessibility was thoughtfully considered throughout,\u00a0too.\u00a0Families were able to use the\u00a0accessible hydro pool, complete with a hoist, as well as other facilities such as a sensory room, making activities feel inclusive rather than limiting. Sarah said,\u00a0<em>\u201cThe hoist into the bathroom, from Harry\u2019s bed, made life so much easier. The facilities in our cottage were amazing.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Even when things didn\u2019t go entirely to plan, families spoke about feeling supported and understood. Lisa shared,\u00a0<em>\u201cAlthough our son struggled being in a strange place and had to go home, it was lovely to meet other mums and get support through a tricky time. The staff couldn\u2019t do enough for us.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Beyond the cottages, the location made it easy for families to explore together, from trips to the seaside and local beaches, to evenings spent socialising with bingo and family fun nights.

It really was \u2018a special place and a holiday where precious memories were made.\u2019 We would return in a blink of an eye! The place, facilities and staff could not be faulted. It was fully inclusive, which as we know is difficult to find these days, but they made it feel that everything was effortless, and nothing was too much trouble.<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"730\" data-end=\"837\">The site wardens, Paul and Elle, were incredible! So friendly and helpful and went way above their roles.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"844\" data-end=\"1180\">On a more personal level, our son Ellis loved his time in Cornwall. He loved the lodge and facilities \u2014 everything was easy for him, with wide doors, large accessible wet rooms and equipment available. He loved the hot tub! Ellis also loved the cata-canoe, and it was fantastic that we could enjoy the experience as a family together.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1187\" data-end=\"1400\">The experience of meeting other families was also important to us, and to be honest was settling.

The youngest Duchenne lad attending was 5 and the eldest was 18, so all on different stages of the Duchenne journey. We may have different circumstances and backgrounds, but Duchenne will never be easy to deal with. So to come together and chat with other families who really do understand, is brilliant for us all.
