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.

These comfortable, private spaces are equipped with bed sitting rooms plus facilities for making breakfast and light snacks. Accommodation is available on the ground floor, and a stairlift is available to take you to the first floor if needed. The house has been fully redecorated in the last two years with the addition of a new state of the art kitchen.

Spend time with other residents in our bright, welcoming communal areas which include a dining room and lounge. We also have laundry facilities and two bathrooms complete with bath chairs available for you to use should you wish.

Our welcoming stone-built house overlooks the town and is situated on the main bus route. Next door is the crown green bowling club and the public park is just a short walk away. We are close to local shops, pharmacies, doctors surgeries and other services.

The meals provided here are home-cooked, and our delicious menu can be adapted to your likes, dietary requirements and intolerances. We offer a nutritious homemade lunch with a lighter option on offer later in the day. We find this suits our residents and leaves them with very little meal preparation to do for themselves however we do provide milk, butter, bread and fresh fruit so that you can make breakfasts and snacks.

Residents often get together in the lounge area, catching up, chatting or playing dominoes and other games. We have two spacious and well maintained patio seating areas outside with plenty of garden furniture, making it the perfect place to relax and enjoy some fresh air. For anyone with family visiting from outside of the local area, we have a visitors’ room which we can prepare for your loved ones to stay over if they wish.

Free wifi is available for you to use in communal areas.
