Accessibility
Our store is fully accessible for wheelchair users. We have a selection of disabled spaces available in our car park, and we have specially designed shopping trolleys, disabled toilets and a lift to our upper level. We also have wheelchairs available for your visit should you require them.
Take a rest from shopping in our Coffee Shop and enjoy homemade food served with a smile. In winter, the warmth and rich aromas tempt you inside but come spring and summer, you can enjoy the sunshine from our south-facing patio.
At Gordale, we’ve even got our own recently refurbished petrol station so you can fill up for your journey home. Our modern independent forecourt offers fuel at competitive prices and the ability to ‘pay at pump’.
Glorious Grounds
We’re extremely proud of our glorious grounds, with sweeping lawns, large herbaceous borders and a giant lake, they’re home to an abundance of wildlife including our resident wild ducks, moorhens and guinea fowl.
And not forgetting our two children’s play areas, where little ones can burn off excess energy on your visit. With equipment suitable for anyone ages from 2 to 14 and a comfy seating area for parents, why not enjoy the sunshine (hopefully) and keep and eye on the children as they keep active and have fun!
Dog Policy
We are happy to welcome dogs in to our store provided they remain in one of our trolleys, indoors and outdoors, for the duration of your visit. We recommend bringing along your dog’s blanket or bed to make their journey more comfortable.
Please note: dogs are not allowed in our coffee shop and food hall.
