Both buildings offer complete access to visitors with reduced mobility by using ramps and an elevator where it is necessary:
At the Ironmaster’s House:
- The ground floor may be accessed via a special ramp.
- Special toilet facilities are available on the ground floor;.

The elevator used to go up and down to the various floors was damaged by the latest rains in August 2024. Unfortunately, it will be out of service for an undetermined length of time. It is therefore necessary to use the stairs with several steps.
