Your room
We encourage our residents to furnish their own rooms as they wish. This could be as simple as hanging a couple of their favourite pictures on the wall, but they’re also welcome to bring their own comfy chair, or anything that makes them feel at home.
The most important thing is for everyone to feel comfortable, happy and settled. All bedrooms have a full en suite wet room with sink and toilet. Some rooms also enjoy lovely garden views and we have WiFi throughout the home.

We have dementia friendly decor and bedroom doors have memory boxes to assist your loved one to find their room. Each wing has a themed area and our dementia areas open into a secure and peaceful garden.
Residents enjoy music therapy and reminiscence activities, including doll therapy, designed to stimulate social interaction and alleviate the feeling of isolation associated with dementia.
