We understand that people with accessibility requirements often face extra costs – from specialist equipment to transport, or even just finding truly accessible accommodation. That’s why we’re committed to making holidays more inclusive and cost-effective for everyone, without compromising on comfort, independence or joy.
At Hoe Grange Holidays, we’re passionate about creating holidays that are truly accessible. Whether you use a wheelchair, need specific accessibility aids, or just want to travel somewhere where comfort and thoughtful design come as standard, we’ve got you covered.
Read on for our top tips to save money on your next accessible UK staycation – and don’t forget to sign up to our newsletter for exclusive discounts and seasonal offers.
10 easy ways to save money on your next accessible holiday
1. Book direct for the best value
Booking directly with your chosen accommodation is one of the simplest ways to save. Third-party sites like Airbnb and Booking.com often add chunky commission fees and don't always have the best accessibility information – and you might miss out exclusive discount codes.
At Hoe Grange, booking direct means you get the best deal, personalised advice, and peace of mind knowing your accessibility needs are taken care of.
2. Travel all year round
If you can avoid school holidays and bank holiday weekends, you’ll often find more affordable rates – plus quieter locations and attractions, which can be more enjoyable for guests with sensory sensitivities or mobility needs.
Our accessible log cabins are available year-round, and spring or autumn stays in the Peak District offer mild weather, fewer crowds and lower prices.
3. Choose self-catering for flexibility and savings
Dining out every night can quickly add up. Our fully equipped self-catering log cabins make it easy to cook your favourite meals – whether you need an accessible kitchen layout or just want the flexibility of eating when it suits you.
Order a grocery delivery to arrive after check-in and store everything easily in your full-sized fridge and freezer. Don't forget you get a fresh loaf of bread, milk, butter, homemade biscuits and even eggs (if the chickens are laying!) in your welcome pack at Hoe Grange too.
Want a break from cooking? Some of our favourite accessible local pubs offer midweek deals – just ask us for the latest recommendations.
4. Enjoy free activities
Holidays don't have to be expensive to be memorable. The great outdoors is one of the best ways to enjoy your staycation. From accessible countryside trails and scenic drives to evenings in our hot tub with a hoist, there's plenty to enjoy on your doorstep.
We've got you covered if the weather isn't great too - check out some of the more low-cost suggestions on our list of accessible things to do on a rainy day.
Prefer to stay in? Our cabins come stocked with board games and books, or you can request one of our DVD players, perfect for a cosy evening snuggled up with loved ones.

5. Get exclusive discounts with local attractions
We've teamed up with several accessible local attractions to help you save even more:
- 20% off at Matlock Farm Park – accessible paths, inclusive activities and a Changing Places toilet
- Up to 20% off at Crich Tramway Village – fascinating step-free exhibits and a "smoothway" around the site
- £5 off at The Heights of Abraham – wheelchair-accessible cable cars and routes with epic views over the valley
- 15% off at Buxton Crescent Experience – inclusive and immersive history with accessibility features suitable for mobility, sight and hearing impairments
These discounts make it even easier to enjoy the best of the local area while keeping costs under control. Just ask us for the latest discount code when you arrive.
If you've got a National Trust or English Heritage membership too, don't forget to bring your card along to make the most of all the fantastic accessible properties to explore in Derbyshire and the Peak District and to save on parking.
And finally, don't forget that carers often go free!
6. Pack light - we've got the essentials!
Travelling light can help reduce costs and it makes things simpler if you can fit everything in one vehicle. Our accessible holidays include high-quality bedding, towels, and a fully equipped kitchen as standard.
Need specialist equipment? We provide over 40 pieces of free accessibility kit for free – from profiling beds and mobile hoists to shower chairs and sensory kits - so there are no costs to hire them in separately. Just let us know what you need when you book, and we’ll have it ready.
7. Avoid expensive kennel or cattery fees
Bring your four-legged companions along for the adventure. No kennel or boarding fees needed – we welcome dogs, cats, and even the occasional rabbit or reptile. They'll enjoy the countryside break as much as you do!
Just get in touch to discuss any specific requirements.
8. Look out for exclusive offers and seasonal deals
At Hoe Grange Holidays, we love rewarding our guests with seasonal offers and exclusive discounts throughout the year. Be sure to sign up for our newsletter and follow us on Facebook or Instagram to stay up-to-date with the latest deals. Whether it’s a mid-week price, a special discount code, or a last-minute booking offer, there are plenty of ways to save even more on your staycation.
Travelling at quieter times of the year also means you’re more likely to snag a great deal, so keep your eyes peeled for availability.
9. Plan your budget in advance
We know it’s easy to get carried away with spending. Who hasn’t said “We’re on holiday!” while handing over a credit card?
Setting a daily or weekly budget can help keep costs under control and make room for a few treats – perhaps a cream tea at an accessible café or hiring an off-road wheelchair during your stay.
By booking inclusive accommodation with everything you need on hand, you’ll avoid unexpected extras and feel more in control of your spending.
10. Spread the cost of your stay
We understand that accessible holidays can sometimes come with extra planning. That’s why we offer flexible payment options – book with a deposit and pay the balance later, or talk to us about monthly installments to spread the cost. We partner with X Cover to provide travel insurance too, so you'll get your money back if you have to cancel due to an emergency - just add it to your online booking.
You could also save up a certain amount per month towards your holiday, or put your holiday savings in a virtual or physical “pot” to make sure you don’t spend it elsewhere - so you can look forward to your holiday stress-free!
