Situated just outside Cockermouth, Hames Hall is a beautifully restored Victorian country mansion, thoughtfully adapted to provide a comfortable and supportive care environment for older people. The home retains its historic charm while offering modern facilities designed to meet residents’ needs.
Hames Hall has strong links with the local community, including a recent initiative where a well-known Cockermouth gardening group helped to restore the impressive walled Victorian kitchen garden. With accessible pathways, disabled-friendly walkways, and raised flowerbeds, residents and visitors can easily enjoy all areas of the grounds. The gardens have also been recognised as part of the National Gardens Scheme open day programme.
Inside, residents benefit from a spacious and welcoming environment, complemented by scenic and secure outdoor spaces. Bedrooms are equipped with nurse call systems, and assisted bathing facilities are available to ensure comfort and safety. The conservatory and gardens offer what are widely regarded as some of the finest views in Cockermouth, overlooking the nearby Lakeland Fells.
A range of additional health and wellbeing services is also available, including regular visits from GPs, chiropodists, and hairdressers, helping residents maintain both their health and quality of life.

My wife has been a resident at Hames Hall for over four years. She is now 96, partially sighted with macular degeneration and with moderate dementia.
I am 92. My wife is happy and settled and has never made any complaint and enjoys the food.
I can visit at any time, usually five or six times a week and can join her in a meal if I wish.
I have celebrated Christmas, birthdays and diamond wedding there, as they occurred, with staff cooperation and participation. Visitors have commented it is more like a small country hotel, lacking any institutionalism.
