This statement has been prepared to help those with disabilities to assess whether these premises will be accessible to them.

Brambles Chine 83 is a self-catering, single storey bungalow on a relatively level site, set back and up a slightly sloping greensward to the front. The site has a reception, approximately 70 metres from the bungalow which has level access. Staff are happy to assist with practical needs during normal working hours although have no special training in dealing with specific requirements.

The site is approximately 4 Km from the Yarmouth vehicle  passenger ferry terminal, from where taxis are usually available and is 800 metres from the nearest bus stop. Vehicular access to the site is practical although via an unadopted road which is in variable condition. The site has a small shop for everyday needs (subject to variable opening hours) and an access ramp can be supplied on request although the approach is over an untarmaced surface.

There is a coin-operated launderette on site via the same access as the shop. Staff are available to assist during normal working hours.

The bungalow is set back approximately 20 metres from a tarmaced road across grass. Car parking is practical between 20 – 25 metres from the bungalow.

Access to the bungalow is up one step although a wheel chair ramp is available on request, subject to office opening hours. The minimum door width in the bungalow is 74cms.

There is an audio smoke alarm.

The bungalow is level within and has a shower cubicle. No special facilities, other than those indicated are provided.

Pets are not accepted with the exception of guide dogs.

There is a large outdoor leisure area although no special facilities are available for disabled guests. Access to the beach is via a steep slipway and steps.

Transport to local entertainment facilities may available in the evening in high season. Folded wheel chairs can be carried.

Risk Assessment for Brambles Chine 83

Brambles Chine 83 is a 2 bedroom holiday bungalow. It is generally of sound construction of non-combustible materials. It is officially called “White Lodge”.

It has a floor area of just under 40 square metres and the main entrance is in the sitting room / kitchen via a double glazed door which opens inwards. This would be the main exit in the event of a fire and is considered satisfactory as it is on the opposite side to the kitchen where a fire is most likely to occur. Persons in the room would therefore be moving away from the source of fire. Additional exits are via the main, side opening, windows in the bedrooms. These are considered to be usable by all but the infirm, physically handicapped or elderly. Although such persons may use the bungalow, it is noted that it is predominantly hired by young / middle aged couples with children and therefore it is not considered worth the expense of installing a second fire exit.

The bungalow has a general-purpose dry powder fire extinguisher in a purpose made bracket firmly attached to the wall in the kitchen area. This is tested annually and deemed to be satisfactory. A torch supplies emergency lighting within the property. The oven appeared to be in good order.

A smoke detector is installed in the property and this appeared to work satisfactorily.

The soft furnishings in the sitting room area were found to be compliant with the fire safety regulations 1988 whilst those in the bedrooms were compliant with the 1991 regulations to BS 7177.

It was noted that all portable electrical fittings had an in-date PAT test label and that the gas Combi Boiler had been tested within the specified period.

It has been suggested that the artex used on the ceilings may contain some form of asbestos. Although this cannot be verified, a specialist contractor should be engaged should any work be required on the ceiling.
