Living at home can become harder as you get older. But choosing to move into supported living accommodation doesn't have to mean losing your independence. In fact, many of our residents tell us it feels like a new beginning.

Show more "Located in the seaside resort of Bangor in County Down, where you'll discover a town filled with Victorian townhouses painted in pastel colours and a marina filled with stunning yachts, Abbeyfield House is a sheltered house that first opened in 1984 and was totally rebuilt in 2003.

Situated on Ward Avenue, Abbeyfield House is located in close proximity of the town centre and we have excellent transport links, including a bus stop located right opposite to the house which takes you to popular destinations.

We have nine rooms which are all en-suite and come with a level deck shower and come unfurnished, allowing you to bring your favourite pieces of furniture, beloved photographs and treasured trinkets.

If you're looking for companionship, our lounge is a great place for socialising and you'll often find residents in there. We also have shared kitchenettes where you'll be able to make your own snacks and drinks." Show less
