Set in its own grounds, a few minutes walk away from the centre of Amesbury, is Buckland Court. The historic city of Salisbury, with its famous cathedral, the monuments of Stonehenge and Old Sarum are all just a short car ride away.

Ground-floor living with garden views
All rooms at Buckland Court are on the ground floor, giving easy access to the lovely and nurtured grounds, which include internal courtyards for residents' enjoyment. The six lounges provide plenty of communal space to enable you to enjoy quiet time, relaxing or to provide a social space to meet friends and family.
Lively days, quiet moments
Residents can enjoy the daily activities going on in the central communal areas with the hairdressing salon open during the week. The cinema room is used partly for activities but also for individual and personal use. The relaxing, well tendered and nourished garden is perfect to unwind in, or to participate in some green fingered activity and spruce up the raised plant beds.

Fantastic team who genuinely cared about my mother during the last few weeks of her life. Nothing was too much trouble. Communication was excellent. A truly professional service by lovely people. I can't recommend them highly enough.

Whether it’s wet or dry outside, at OSJCT, we feel that activities are essential in providing the best caring environment to live in.
Hobbies don’t simply stop when living with us at Buckland Court. We have a dedicated Activities Co-ordinator who works closely with our residents to create a programme of fulfilling activities and events, tailored around each resident’s requests, hobbies and interests. The programme of events and activities provide a source of fun and laughter, to help each resident live their life to the full and make new friendships.
We are also fortunate to have the support of many volunteers of all ages from the local community, strengthening our links to this thriving market town. Here is a sample of activities on offer:
- Trips to garden centres, cafés, pubs, sporting events, National Trust properties, wildlife parks, aquariums and museums
- Visit from Pets as Therapy Dogs
- Exercise and wellness activities, for example Seated Yoga, Zumba
- Board game competitions and quizzes
- Music therapy sessions
- Gardening
- Arts and crafts
- Communal church services
With so many well-being activities for body and mind on offer, we also recognise that everyone needs some personal space for relaxation and mindfulness for personal reflection. The cosy lounges offer an opportunity for some quiet time or to host family and friends.
And that’s not all:
We’ve had silent discos, hoe downs, Chinese banquets, Oscar parties and so much more.
Many of the activities feature Reminiscence Therapy to aid those living with Dementia to remember events, people and places using sight, touch, taste, smell and sound.
The talented chef and kitchen team prepare tasty, home-cooked meals on site daily from our own kitchens. We source quality produce for our excellent breakfast, lunch and dinner menus. All-day dining is available for lighter meals and snacks and all dishes are carefully balanced to get the best nutritional value and cater for individual dietary requirements and preferences.
Seasonal produce is chosen whenever possible and of course, relatives and friends are always welcome to join us. The menus change daily, and the kettle is always on. Our chef bakes every day so there is always a fresh cake to enjoy.
Each of the households has their own small kitchen dining room where residents can take their meals if they wish. Residents are also encouraged to help prepare their own food and to make snacks whenever they choose.
