Your room

We encourage our residents to furnish their own rooms as they wish.

The most important thing is for everyone to feel comfortable, happy and settled.

All our bedrooms have an en suite toilet and sink and some rooms enjoy lovely garden views. If your loved one enjoys catching up with the latest news, sport, chat shows or soaps, we can provide a wall mounted TV in their room on request, and there’s WiFi throughout the home.
