I've been involved in my local small women's retreat/feminist con from the start. I didn't end up going last year, because I was in a pretty bad patch at the time.

This year, they've found a new, "awesome" venue. Presumably this took a fair bit of searching.

I asked about accessibility, as did two others, and the organiser didn't know and had to ask and get back to me. The result?

"I had a talk to the owners about disabled access. They don't have much in the way of disabled access. The site is built on a hill. There is one bedroom and bathroom on the ground level (access is at the back. Because of the hill, there are a small flights of stairs (5-6 stairs) separating different areas and rooms."
