A comprehensive quality assurance scheme for those with mobility impairment has been in place in Scotland for the past two decades.
Under the scheme, properties are carefully assessed by VisitScotland Quality Advisors using strict criteria and awarded one or more of the following gradings:
Category 1: wheelchair access without assistance
Category 2: wheelchair access with assistance
Category 3: access for those with mobility impairment
Where an establishment holds an award, at least one bedroom in a hotel or guest, B&B or hostel is accessible to the level given. Where a visitor attraction has identifiably different component parts (for example, the attraction itself, shop, café, toilets, etc.), awards are made to highlight the different access levels for each part.
