Residents and their guests can enjoy relaxing in the Sun Room which is a bright, modern space with comfy seating. There is a lovely, large garden with a pond and residents who enjoy gardening are welcome to help out. We support customers who wish to arrange their own social activities and entertainment.

Sandy has an excellent range of shops, supermarkets and amenities, including a health centre.
