We stayed 3 nights in the Durham accommodation and ordered the stand aid and shower recliner which were both there when we arrived.
The property is of a very high standard with lots of adaptations to take the stress out of trips away with a relative using an electric wheelchair.
The information and checks provided by the admin team prior to arrival was very reassuring and the information on line and in the accommodation was brilliant.
Plenty to do in the area and lots of accessible information available too.
We will definitely be back.

Been here several times with my wife,first time in one of the new lodges and it was ,as usual, everything we expected,clean ,beautiful,and everything we required supplied free with no fuss.Places like this are few and far between for people with disabilities ,brilliant template for what should be available for so called"disabled friendly" accomodations.First class.

Durham lodge was perfect for our needs, with a huge open plan living area (even larger than we had expected from the photos). Everything was brand new, including very comfortable beds and a large downstairs wetroom. The whole family loved the reclining arm chair too! The village of Lundin Links was quiet and we found the little local shop to be useful. We managed to do day trips to Edinburgh, and also visited St Andrews and other places along the coast. It was a really lovely holiday and we hope to return.

Homelands was very well organised from booking to arrival. The accommodation- Durham- was very spacious, excellent quality and well equipped with everything we needed, so we didn’t use some things we brought with us e.g. cleaning items, dishwasher detergent, washing powder. Hand wash in the toilets and washing up liquid supplied too. Good small convenience store within a short walk, (not accessible but they deliver), as was the Old Manor Hotel, accessible and welcoming with good reasonably priced food. We didn’t bring the electric wheelchair, so couldn’t manage the push up from main entrance. We did manage the back gate onto Leven Road. Power chair next time! Well done and thank you Homelands Fife.

Great time at Homelands as always. Disappointed that the large green metal container at the bottom of the garden which is blocking the beautiful view has still not been removed. Staff assured me it will be getting moved but think it has been there now since the new lodges opened ☹️

Dear Louise, Thank you for staying with us again and for taking the time to leave us a review. We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay. We are currently trying to push on with removal of the container. We would prefer to find a new home for it where it can be of use to a local group and we are working on that at present. We look forward to seeing you again in the future. Kind Regards - The Homelands Team.

We chose Homelands as it seemed to tick all the boxes for our needs and it certainly lived up to expectations. The accommodation was excellent, so spacious, modern and clean. The location was wonderful too, near to the sea with lots of interesting walks and places of interest to see.
