The Community

Our Care Home occupies an idyllic position amidst beautiful countryside. During fine weather, residents can sit outside, drink tea, enjoy a snack, read a book or simply enjoy the surrounding scenery.

With excellent access throughout the building, including full lift access to all floors, our approach embraces an overall feeling of wellness for our residents. There are several spacious and relaxing resident lounges, each available to you to meet up with old and new friends alike. Coffee, tea and hot chocolate are available throughout the day, as is a range of tasty squashes and refreshing fruit drinks.
