The home takes great pride in its home?cooked meals, with hearty dishes, homemade desserts, and a focus on quality, comforting food that feels truly personal. A rich programme of daily activities ensures that individual interests are celebrated - from live music, quizzes, and games to arts and crafts, gardening through the home’s own community garden club, and many more opportunities for creativity and connection. For residents who enjoy getting out and about, the home offers community outings including visits to the Salvation Army, local churches, and gentle walks to seafront cafés, and each summer a beach hut is reserved so residents can relax by the sea in comfort. The Corner House is also proud to be accredited by St Helena’s Hospice, recognising the high standard of compassionate, person?centred care provided to every resident.

Thank you for your review.Your Aunt has lived with us at The Corner House for over 6 Years making it her home.
We purchased special socks on the recommendation from a Healthcare Professional. Her legs have since improved dramatically so they are no longer a requirement. The Carers in the morning respect your aunt's choice as to whether she would like to wear the socks. Fortunately, the temperature is always very warm within the Home and she chooses not to at times.
We understand your sentiments about the hearing aids. Now the District Nurses have finished an investigation and treating a health problem relating to her ears, we have requested the audiologist to revisit regarding her hearing aid.
Aunty is very happy and content with living at The Corner House and we hope this continues, as per our recent conversation. We look forward to seeing you all soon.

Mum is here for an initial 6 weeks respite care with a view to it being permanent. So far everything is going well due mainly to the staff being caring, offering excellent support and words of encouragement. Overall an excellent care home in all respects.

My sister asked me to visit her friend in this care home. I met very friendly staff, my friend said there are plenty of activities every day and very good entertainment. We sat in the garden and enjoyed the sun with a cup of tea. My friend looks happy there.
