The majority of the property is fully accessible. From the Smiths Holiday Road Facebook page: Accessible accomodation isn’t always easy to find. We have found brilliant 2 & 3 bedroom cottages here on Phillip Island. Ripples n Tonic is a farmstay with accessibility and inclusion in mind so that everyone can have a holiday. Each unit has a roll in wet room bathroom, ramped entries and exits and plenty of space. Outside there are paved paths to most areas, a nest swing, a big supportive swing and a campfire to roast marshmallows! For those who prefer a beach stay there is the Solaro beach house which includes a Hi Lo bed, hoist and aquatic wheelchair. Thanks to Family Travel for our adventures this week.
