We would like to announce that Kingsbury Water Park in Warwickshire has installed a Changing Places Toilet (with hoist, changing bed and shower) near the Broomey Croft entrance to the park.
Kingsbury Water Park is the largest of Warwickshire’s Country Parks, a series of large lakes developed in the 1970s from a former gravel extraction site. Attracting over 350,000 visitors each year the park has over 600 acres to explore and an extensive network of level paths which are wide and can easily accommodate wheelchairs. (Access to paths is generally good but may present problems after heavy or prolonged rainfall due to flooding/mud)
There are two entrances to Kingsbury Water Park; the main Visitor Centre side to the south of the M42 and the quieter side to the north (the Broomey Croft entrance near the caravan site). Both sides have a coin operated barrier where parking charges apply.
The Changing Places Toilet is situated by the entrance to the north side of the park (near the Caravan site). There are pleasant walks, bird hides with low ledged viewing points, a small cafe (the Granary Tea Room) and Broomey Croft Children’s Farm all in the immediate vicinity.
Please note that the Granary Tea Room is open Wednesday, Friday, Saturday & Sunday in term time and every day during school holidays. Broomey Croft Children’s Farm is open weekends and school holidays but visits can be arranged at other times (please check website).
A radar key will be needed to access the Changing Places Toilet and to access the full length of the circular path around Broomey Croft nature reserve.
It is possible to walk/wheel between the two sides of the park (takes about 45 minutes one way) but, for those visitors who wish to drive from the main entrance side of the park to use the facilities at the Changing Places Toilet, please ask at the Visitor Centre if you need to borrow a pass/radar key (a returnable deposit may be needed)
Thank you
Friends of Kingsbury Water Park
