ACCESSIBILITY & INCLUSIVITY POLICY

“When everyone is included, everyone wins”

– Jesse Jackson

Memorable, Inclusive and Accessible Experiences

At Kestrel Nest, we aim to provide the setting for memorable, inclusive, and accessible experiences. We are always looking for ways to improve the experience for our guests.

Here, we outline ways in which accessibility and inclusivity have been considered to assist guests with planning their visit.

We encourage guests to contact us direct should they require further information about a specific need or request. Although we cannot guarantee we can accommodate all needs, we do our best with the building we have, and it never hurts to ask.

LGBTQI+ Inclusiveness: Welcoming Everyone

We welcome everyone to stay with us and experience our very special place, no matter how you partner or how you identify.
