Residents can enjoy the daily social activities going on in the central communal areas with the hairdressing salon open during the week. The cinema/entertainment room is used partly for activities but also for individual and personal use. The comfortable garden area and lounge on the ground floor are perfect for meeting family and friends.
If you’d like a little more privacy, then spend some time in our themed lounges, or in your own spacious bedroom, which are a personal haven for each of the residents. Each room offers a private bed-sitting room, an emergency 24 hour call system, ensuite shower rooms and plenty of space for those personal items from home.
