Accessibility statement

Built-in tools

Open the Accessibility button at the top of any page, or press Alt + A. Your choices are remembered on this device.

• Text size — four sizes up to 150%, without breaking the layout.
• High contrast and dark mode — for low vision, glare and light sensitivity.
• Readable font and spacing — Atkinson Hyperlegible (designed by the Braille Institute) and wider letter, word and line spacing for dyslexia.
• Highlight links and focus — makes every link, and your keyboard position, easy to see.
• Read aloud — hear text and controls as you hover or tab to them, or read a whole page. If you use a screen reader such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver or TalkBack, leave this off.
• Voice search — tap the microphone in the search box (in supported browsers).
• Bigger buttons and large cursor — for tremors, limited dexterity or touch use.
• Stop animations — removes motion. We also follow your device’s “reduce motion” setting.
• Wheelchair-accessible places only — every search is filtered for you.

How the site is built

• Every page starts with a “Skip to main content” link and uses proper headings and landmarks.
• Everything works with a keyboard alone; focus is always visible.
• Star ratings are read out as text, such as “Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars”.
• Maps are optional: every result on a map is also in the list, with its address and distance.
• Forms have visible labels, explain errors in words, and link straight to the field that needs fixing.
• Colors meet WCAG AA contrast, and nothing relies on color alone.
• Sign-in codes can be pasted, and fill in automatically on most phones.

Known limitations

• The map tiles come from OpenStreetMap and may not be fully readable by screen readers — use the list instead.
• Reviews are written by the community; we can’t guarantee every reviewer describes accessibility features accurately.
• The optional “I am human” check is provided by Cloudflare.
