Maureen, so sorry, I realise that I have made a mistake. You want to know about Housesteads, not Vindolanda... Housesteads is a bit more tricky, I would say. You would need some support if you use a wheelchair. Toilet access I cannot comment on, however Peter Drake teacher playwright Hexham Northumberland

Depends which museum you want to visit... Peter Drake Hexham

Its a steady uphill walk, took us 15 mins. There is a roadway, i assume for people with mobility difficulties.

Yes car park open

Hi, Housesteads does have ad-hoc volunteer guides on site but these can't be booked in advance and may not be there on the day you visit. There are some interpretation panels around the site, a very useful guide book and an informative museum with a short introductory film show - a must at the start of your visit. Hope this helps, Sue Hodnett Site Manager Housesteads Roman Fort

If you approach the fort by walking the Wall, you can visit it and wander around with no charge. However, there is a Visitor Center and parking lot where you normally would enter if you drive to the Fort. Here you pay or use your English Heritage Cards. It is a fairly easy uphill walk about 15 minutes up towards the fort. But do not miss the very good museum up near the fort. To me this was worth the price of admission. The Fort itself is well mapped with signs letting you know what you are looking at. Enjoy!

Yes, the National Trust will stamp the passport at the Visitor Centre. It's a jointly run site - English Heritage & National Trust

Yes it is on production of your membership card. The car park is council run and chargeable

Hi, Dogs on leads are allowed everywhere except in the museum. There are loops in the walls of the museum if owners want to tie their dogs to them while they look around inside, and a bowl of water to keep their dogs hydrated. There is free access Hadrian's Wall from the car park, but don't forget there is a charge and you will need to collect tickets if you want to see the Fort & museum.
