Bournemouth's Marsham Court Hotel has once again been recognised as one of the UK's leading accessible hotels after being named a finalist in the prestigious Travel For Every Body Awards 2026.

The hotel has secured a place on the shortlist for the Accommodation category, having previously won the award in 2025. The finalists were announced this week by David Wilcox and the Travel For Every Body team, with winners set to be revealed at a ceremony in Manchester on 1 October 2026.

The recognition marks a remarkable achievement for the independently owned Bournemouth hotel, which has built a strong reputation for accessible and inclusive hospitality. Having lifted the Accommodation Award last year, Marsham Court Hotel is now aiming to retain its title while continuing to champion accessible tourism across Dorset and the wider UK.

Over the years, the hotel has invested significantly in facilities, staff training and guest experiences designed to ensure visitors of all abilities can enjoy a comfortable and memorable stay.

Jane Langridge, Business Development Director at Marsham Court Hotel, said:

"To be recognised as a finalist is wonderful in itself, but to receive this recognition after winning the award last year makes it particularly special. It demonstrates our ongoing commitment to accessibility and our belief that everyone should be able to enjoy a great travel experience."

She added:

"We are proud to play our part in showcasing Dorset as a Coast for All Seasons, welcoming visitors from across the UK and beyond while helping make tourism more inclusive and accessible for everyone."

The shortlist places Marsham Court Hotel among some of the most respected travel and accommodation providers working to remove barriers and improve accessibility throughout the visitor journey.

For the Marsham Court team, the nomination is not only recognition of past achievements but also encouragement to continue leading the way in accessible hospitality.

The winners of the Travel For Every Body Awards 2026 will be announced in Manchester on 1 October
