With a team who are passionate about enriching the lives of their residents, Cedar Court provides residential, dementia, nursing and palliative care. They also provide rehabilitation and pre-bookable respite care breaks.
The home is very much at the heart of the local community. School children often pop in to take part in activities and singing. There is regular entertainment from singers, musicians and choirs, and the local church run regular services for the residents. And there are trips out in the home’s minibus, from pub lunches to garden centres and shopping.
There are so many activities to enjoy, from pamper sessions, with manicures and hand massages to animal visits, with everything from snakes and tortoises to rabbits and dogs. And a stone’s throw from the coast, residents often enjoy walks along the harbour.
The home has lots of bright and airy spaces to enjoy, from the lounges, where residents enjoy activities and spending time with loved ones, to the dining rooms, where they enjoy delicious home-cooked meals prepared by the chef. From roast dinners with all the trimmings, to fish and chip Fridays and lighter bites such as home-made soups and freshly baked cakes for afternoon tea.
The residents love to get involved in ‘foody’ activities, baking and cake decoration, making pizzas and pies. And there is always a special menu for special occasions, from afternoon tea to themed nights.
Loved ones, who are welcome at any time, are embraced into life at Cedar Court. There are regular relatives’ meetings and a private family and friends Facebook page, where relatives can see what their loved ones have been enjoying doing, even if they can’t be there in person.
The gardens are wonderful, with wheelchair friendly pathways and raised beds, for residents who enjoy gardening.
Cedar Court also has a beautiful hair salon, for weekly appointments with the mobile hairdresser.

I have had the best of care since I came here. The staff are all friendly and most helpful. It was a new opinion that I have of care homes; this one is more like a hotel to me.

Caring and friendly staff always ready with a smile, treat residents with respect and encouragement. The comfortable rooms and shared spaces are newly renovated and always kept clean and pleasant. My mother suffers from dementia and became a resident over 10 years ago. Although she initially had some difficulty in accepting her new situation there was an evident and almost immediate improvement in her physical health and general well-being.
Thank you for taking the time to review our home, your kind words are so appreciated. Best wishes, Fae
