Standedge Tunnel is at the end of the towpath running from the train station. This may be slippery in wet or icy weather.
Parking
Our official car park is at Marsden train station - a 15 minute towpath walk to us.
We have four dedicated disabled parking spaces, and the Watersedge Cafe has ramped access.
Visitors with limited mobility and wheelchair users
Standedge Tunnel is fully accessible for wheelchair users. The boat trip into the tunnel is accessible for wheelchair users from the canal side. However, there is only room for one wheelchairs on each trip.
Deaf and hard-of-hearing visitors
Assistance animals are welcome in cafe and usually on-board the boat trip.
Blind and partially-sighted visitors
Guide and assistance animals are welcome.
Disabled toilets
The Watersedge has a disabled toilet.
Future plans
We're always reviewing Standedge Tunnel accessibility for all and are working to improve everyone's experience. If you find something we've missed, please let us know.
Please ask us if you need any help.
