Why Barnstondale
The benefits of residentials are just as relevant to young people with additional needs as they are for any other young person.
Barnstondale offers a safe, supportive, and stimulating environment for youngsters with a range of additional needs and offers opportunity to teach life skills, build confidence and create a better understanding of the world.
We are the only centre on Merseyside to provide a wide range of facilities and activities for children with disabilities to enjoy and learn alongside their able-bodied peers. All our cabins are wheelchair friendly and have lifts to upper floors and our Meadow Cabin is accommodation purposely built to cater for users with severe disabilities.
Group Activities

Sourced directly from the USA, the land which made an art form of the log cabin, our accommodation will make your stay at Barnstondale memorable from the first moment you see them. After all, who hasn’t dreamt of staying in a log cabin by the woods?
