Welcome to Abbey Guest House, Abingdon-on-Thames

Our latest accessibility addition

The ethos at Abbey Guest House has always been to provide accommodation for as many guests as can reasonably be accommodated. The most recent addition to the range of aids and options available has been the installation of a Ceiling Hoist. This has been installed in the ground floor twin ‘accessible’ room and enables guests to be easily transferred from wheelchair to profiling bed. It can also be used to transfer to the commode/shower chair to access the roll-in wetroom.

Room 1 ground floor accessible room with profiling bed now has a ceiling hoist fitted.

The new chilled and room temperature water dispenser in the breakfast area of Abbey Guest House in Abingdon-on-Thames. It is available for guests to use at any time along with a selection of fruit squashes.

A new FREE ‘filtered’ chilled water dispenser is now available in the guest breakfast room, it is hoped that everyone will be able to enjoy the health benefits. A range of fruit cordials are also available to flavour the water if required.

2018 Summer started with accommodation being taken by some ‘new’ guests visiting the birdhouse and then some comfortable seating being installed nearby for our more usual guests!
