Warleigh Weir — Attraction in Claverton

Extremely inconsiderate of those with disabilities that require parking nearby to places. The wording on their website is very aggressive regarding parking and doesn’t consider in the slightest those who may not be able to access places via public transport, foot or cycle and need to park closer for genuine reasons related to their disability.

I suggest they consider all of the existing disabled parking schemes including blue badges if they need guidance on the existence of people that need to park closely to places in order to access them. The lack of provision means that these people are unable to visit and enjoy the Weir as other people are.

There are clearly assumptions/generalisations being made about everyone who parks closely to places based on bad experiences but this doesn’t apply to everyone.

If you do decide to go for the day, please use common sense and take your rubbish home with you as no...

Absolutely love this place I feel completely free almost apart from there is always someone who has to complain about people playing music and generally having fun why can't people just let people be and let them get on with their lives there's enough stress in the world as it is if you don't like what people are doing then move on there's a whole wide world out there yeah I'm sure there's somewhere else you can find or just learn to live a little and socialize and be a bit more open-minded and optimistic people only want to have fun that come to these places and relax meaning doing what they like without the stress of other people trying to tell them what to do ruining the time they are trying to have anyway people who understands me on this just stay positive and don't let them bring you down and ruin your memories and fun and always keep smiling...
