Drummond, Limitless founder and chief executive, said the trip to Devon in June had been particularly popular among customers new to the operator.

"We’ve been blown way by the response," he said.

"As keen travellers ourselves, we’ve been champing at the bit after being mainly at home for a year. 

"Interestingly, it’s not just existing customers who’ve booked, we’ve seen a high number of enquiries coming in from new customers who’ve not been on holiday for years as they felt their disabilities made it impossible to travel."

Limitless said while the disabled community had been among the most isolated during the Covid crisis, with many having to shield, many were now looking to make up for lost time, starting by exploring the destinations on their doorsteps.

"Travel is much more than just a change of scenery, it has the power to change people’s lives with multiple mental health benefits, which is much needed after the anxiety and stress of the past year," added Drummond.

"Even pre-Covid, our accessible and safe holidays have been reducing the isolation felt by many people with disabilities and their carers who sometimes haven’t been on holiday for years due to their disabilities.

"We’re confident that there are sunnier times ahead for all of us."
