Shaftesbury Court has a wonderful environment for its residents to enjoy and a team who are devoted to enriching their residents’ lives.
Providing residential care, the team also offer respite care breaks, which can be booked in advance. These are perfect for carers looking after loved ones at home, who need a short break themselves, with the peace of mind of knowing their relative is in safe hands and being well cared for.
The apartment-style bedrooms at Shaftesbury Court are stunning – spacious and beautifully decorated, they have ensuite wet rooms, kitchenettes, lounges and even a small dining area. They are a lovely space to enjoy spending time alone with family and friends, who are welcome at any time. There are also double suites for couples and many of the bedrooms overlook the gardens.
There are welcoming lounges, where residents enjoy so many activities, from baking, arts and crafts and spending time with visiting school children, to gentle exercise sessions and pet therapy. The home also has a hair salon for pamper sessions and regular appointments with the mobile hairdresser.
Residents enjoy delicious home-cooked meals every day, prepared by the home’s chef. From roast dinners with all the trimmings, to fish and chip Fridays and lighter bites like freshly-made soups and pies. And there is home-baking every day for afternoon tea.
The enormous gardens are a real highlight, with vast lawns, a water feature, harbour-style seating, wheelchair friendly pathways and raised planters, for residents who enjoy gardening. They are a lovely place to relax in the summer and enjoy garden parties and barbecues.
But it’s the team, many of whom have worked at Shaftesbury Court for years, who make this home feel really special, creating a really warm, family feel.

The environment in the home is friendly and caring. My mum settled in quickly and was soon referring to her room as home. Visiting times are informal and there is a homely atmosphere.

My mother had terminal cancer and entered Shaftesbury Court when it became unsafe for her to remain in her home. From the beginning, the care she received was exemplary – the staff always kind and attentive, her clean and spacious room overlooking a sunny garden. End-of-life care was provided with sensitivity, compassion and empathy in close collaboration with the excellent community nursing team. In all respects, this home exceeded our expectations.

Mum has been in for respite care on and off for the last 2 years. She thoroughly enjoys being there. She finds the staff courteous, pleasant and very helpful. To the point now she wants to stay full-time.

The care home has done wonders for my elderly dad; he is like a different person. When he went there, he was very depressed and weak, but now he's very happy. He is eating and drinking a lot better.
