A Very Warm Welcome to Diverse Nation
At Diverse Nation, we believe everyone benefits from a world designed from the neurodivergent perspective. This approach promotes inclusion and compassion, recognising and celebrating human differences. It encourages creativity, collaboration, and a deeper understanding of diversity, creating spaces and experiences that are not only meaningful but truly accessible to all.
Our mission is to be the world’s leading provider of across-the-spectrum neurodiversity-inclusive properties. These are short-term accommodations designed mindfully for everyone, using both scientific principles and lived experience to achieve true neurodiversity inclusion.
I’m Debra Presley, Chartered Psychologist, Chartered Scientist, and proud neurodivergent individual. With over 20 years of expertise in psychology, sensory design, and transformational change, I founded Diverse Nation to redefine what accommodation can be, calm, inclusive, and welcoming for every mind.

What is Neuroinclusive Design?
Neuroinclusive design is at the heart of everything we do. It means creating sensory-underloaded accommodation that supports neurodiverse needs while offering a calming environment for everyone.
Through a unique combination of psychological expertise and collaboration with top interior designers, we’ve developed a proprietary design approach that makes Diverse Nation properties genuinely unique.
Truly neurodiverse-friendly spaces require a bespoke mix of light, space, texture, colour, and sound frequencies. When these elements are balanced scientifically, they soothe the mind and create harmony for both neurodivergent and neurotypical guests.
Why Choose Our Properties?
You might be searching for an autism-friendly holiday let in the UK, or perhaps a place that embraces the full spectrum of neurodiversity. At Diverse Nation, our properties go beyond “autism-friendly.” They are designed for all neurodivergent types, including autism, ADHD, OCD, dyspraxia, dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, and more.
Every property follows our 141-point neuroinclusive checklist, ensuring that it meets the highest standards of neuro diverse inclusion. We maintain a consistent interior theme across all our locations to foster familiarity and a sense of belonging, while still allowing each space to feel unique.
With Diverse Nation, you’re not just booking accommodation, you’re choosing a stay scientifically and thoughtfully created to meet the needs of every guest.
