Cedars Bourne is a spacious and beautiful care home in the scenic market town of Bourne, Lincolnshire, surrounded by mature gardens with views of The Bourne Abbey Church. The Cedars home offers high quality residential and nursing care in a warm and friendly environment. With picturesque grounds the meandering Bourne Eau river flows through the garden and there is a sheltered decking area, which is perfect for outdoor socialising and enjoying the garden.
The Cedars offers Residential and Nursing care which is 24-hour, long-term care offered in a care home. The Cedars care home offers a safe place for elderly people, who are looked after according to their needs, such as help with washing, mobility, medication and medical needs. The Cedars is designed to be homely, with the opportunity to take up hobbies, enjoy regular activities, and facilitate older people in living meaningful lives. Each individual is treated as such, and has a tailored care plan inclusive of their individual dietary requirements, hobbies and life stories. Care homes are very much a community within themselves, and the opportunities for socialisation and group activities are hugely valuable in helping to combat loneliness. Families of residents can also have peace of mind that their loved one is well cared for, and in a sociable and enriching environment. Respite care offers a break from the day-to-day care routine, with a change of scenery, the opportunity for socialisation and new experiences, while providing a seamless continuity of care.
Spacious lounges, dining rooms and quiet areas are situated in each wing of the home. Trained chefs cook a variety of nutritious and tasty meals to provide residents with appealing daily menus, with personal preferences and individual dietary requirements always being considered.

The Cedars is a very welcoming home. All the staff are friendly and very helpful. My Mum is very happy with her room and likes all the staff. It has an efficient and caring team, from management to nursing, cleaning and catering staff. My sister and I were recommended the Cedars by a friend and we have been completely satisfied with the caring and dignified support they have given to our mother. I would have no hesitation in recommending The Cedars.
Thank you for your lovely words. The team at the Cedars will be delighted to hear your positive praise and how happy you and your mum are with the home.

My father was found a room at The Cedars on discharge from hospital. I was there to meet him when he arrived and I could see he did not recognise his surroundings and was confused. My father was already suffering from a Mental Health issue. The staff greeted him sympathetically and with great compassion and settled him into his room. My father was 90 years old and frail but they offered him and myself a cup of tea and biscuits immediately. My fathers health was deteriorating quickly but all of the staff gave the very best of care and until the passing of my father, some 10 weeks later. He was so frail but he passed without a blemish on his body, this is always a sign of excellent care. Whenever we visited, we found my father was very clean and tidy, also his bedding and room and drinks were always available for him. When we visited, from the Manager to the care staff and receptionist, everyone had time for you and was willing to listen and answer any queries. I would most definitely recommend The Cedars for care.

A warm, friendly and welcoming home. Staff are professional but friendly and approachable and always have time to listen to any concerns and act upon them. Mum is having trouble eating (lost her appetite) and all the staff who deal with her, are encouraging her to eat. The head chef/cook has been in with the list of food on offer and trying anything to get her to eat and willing to make anything she fancies.
Thank you for your review. The team are always pleased to hear such lovely comments. Meeting our residents personal needs is so important to us all. Encouraging and supporting the residents to enjoy their stay at The Cedars is our priority.

All levels of staff from the manager to the cleaners greeted us with warm smiles and cheerful hellos. They were all expecting Mum and already knew her name, making her instantly feel at home and putting our minds at ease knowing that she was in safe hands and cared for.
Her room was spotless and homely with a vase of fresh flowers on her arrival.
The day rooms are all bright and spacious and have fantastic views of the gardens and wildlife. There's also a hairdresser on site.
The meals are varied and smell delicious, each table is beautifully laid.
There are regular activities and entertainment, Mum particularly enjoyed the local school children visiting at Christmas and singing carols.
Everyone that has visited Mum has commented on the friendliness and compassion each member of staff shows her, nothing is ever too much trouble.
I can't praise this care home enough.
Best Wishes to you all.

Care over the last few years at The Cedars has always been of a high standard but of late, the standard has increased to an even higher level.
I can only contribute this to the promotion of a certain staff member from Deputy Matron to the position of Matron (Home Manager) to The Cedars.
I would just like to personally thank all the staff from the maintenance team to Matron. You all help to make The Cedars a Home of Excellence.

I can highly recommend this care home, such an enjoyable place for relatives to live and the care they receive is excellent. The dedication of the staff on all levels is so good and you can see they actually enjoy working there. Nothing is too much trouble and the attention to detail of care is wonderful. My relative is at the end of life and the love and support they give to families is beyond the call of duty. The home is lovingly warm and homely, with activities daily and even a hairdresser for those pampering times. Visits from school children and the odd dog or two make everyone smile. The surroundings and gardens too are pleasing and relaxing even though it's in the centre of town, you wouldn't think it. I cannot endorse this home enough and give thanks to everyone who works there for the care they give when needed.
The only thing that was "hit or miss" was the food - but that is now so much better as you have got a new cook.

An accidental find, after taking a wrong turn, we filed this home in the back of our heads just in case it would ever be needed. A dramatic change of circumstances led us to contact. What an incredible place. Every single one of the individuals who make up this team are outstanding. They have taken extremely good care of us. From making sure our loved one was kept comfortable, the gentle attentive care, to taking such good care of all of us during a difficult time such loving kindness, a shoulder to cry on or voice frustration. I cannot praise or recommend them highly enough. This team is respected and outstanding.

Dad initially moved into The Cedars for a week respite care as it was becoming increasingly hard to meet his needs at home. Dad found everyone at The Cedars kind and caring and they looked after him very well. As Dad's needs increased he stayed at The Cedars and those last two months of his life were made so much easier by the care of all who work there. My mother is elderly and as I live three hours drive away it was also a huge help for me knowing she was being with Dad in a supportive environment in the week when I was not able to be there with them. As Dad's condition progressed the staff were responsive and kept me informed. I would highly recommend The Cedars - all of the staff made a very difficult and stressful time so much easier by being there for us. Thank you so much.
Many thanks for your positive comments on our home. At The Cedars, we pride ourselves on the high standard of care we provide, and this extends to looking after the loved ones of our residents. Our team are extremely passionate and are an asset to our home. They will be delighted to hear your lovely feedback. Thanks again, best wishes to you and your family.

My name is Becky, and I am the Senior General Manager here at the Cedars Care Home. I have been a qualified nurse since 2002 and have worked at the Cedars(Bourne) since 2010. During my time here, I have progressed through different roles.

Hello, my name is Lisa, and I am the Activities Assistant here at The Cedars in Bourne. I moved from Kent to Lincolnshire and joined the team here in 2023. I have a background in theatre, animation and owning my own soft furnishings company, and I enjoy bringing all these qualities with me to share with our residents. I am passionate and enthusiastic about enriching all our residents' quality of life with person-centred activities.
As the Activities Assistant, my focus is learning about each of our residents' likes and dislikes, interests and hobbies and supporting them to remain receptive and active, in addition to supporting them to stretch themselves and try new things. I help organise activities to stimulate the mind, body and soul in an enjoyable, comfortable way. My aim is to diversify and increase activities, ensuring that there is something for everyone, but I guess my main objective is to enjoy each day with our residents and have fun as I have found in my short time here, it is what brings the most joy!

I have worked across many different departments over time; which gives me a unique perspective about how everything works. I like being part of a team that I have happily worked with for so long.

Hi, I'm Lizzy Satchwell, I joined the team here at The Cedars Care Home in February 2026 as Admin Assistant.
I have received such a warm welcome from everyone, and have enjoyed engaging and interacting with all the lovely residents. This is my first time working front of house in a care home setting, but I'm eager to learn and feel this will be an exciting opportunity for me.
My role as admin assistant involves such a variety of tasks that every day is different, keeping me involved with visitors, residents and supporting all my colleagues in any way I can, making it a great experience and a very fulfilling role.
Outside of work I enjoy being with my family and friends and also getting creative with arts and crafts.

Hi, I’m Rachel. I qualified as a nurse in 2008 and have spent a lot of my career in the RAF. Since I left I have done a variety of nursing and therapy jobs but I decided to return to my roots; where I started my nursing career. I have loved working with this group of individuals again.I have only been here a short time but already feel part of the family.
Outside of work I am obsessed with decorating! My husband will quite often come home to a different coloured wall or ceiling. He’s use to it now.

Hi, my name is Kerry, and I am a senior carer, joining the team in June 2025. My role can vary from one shift to the next, which can be both challenging and rewarding. I am relatively new to working on nights, having always worked as a day senior. I love seeing all aspects of the care role and to learn and testing my skills every day.
As a senior carer, it is my responsibility to support the nurse in charge and help lead a team of carers to deliver person-centred care to our residents. Some of my duties include supporting the residents with their nighttime routines, ensuring they have their nighttime medication in a timely manner, completing regular well-being checks to ensure their safety, supporting with any postfall observations, managing emergency situations, and regularly reviewing resident support plans: whatever needs to be done, I can do! I especially love helping with tissue viability and wound care.
My hobbies include gardening, walking our dogs and floristry.

My life is centred around my four children and grandson, who I am very proud of. I adore football and tennis, days out with my many friends and holiday’s in the sun!Throughout my working life I have met some amazing, caring people and the Cedars is no exception. Team Cedars work extremely hard to ensure our residents have the best life experience possible.

Hi, I'm Tracey. I have lived locally for many years, and worked in Bourne and the surrounding villages both as a mobile hairdresser and in salons.

I took over from Sue when she retired, and already feel like part of the family!
Outside of work I enjoy walking on gorgeous Norfolk beaches, particularly when the walk finishes in a tearoom with great tea & cakes!

Pauline is a very active member of The Cedars. An ex care-assistant; she has a unique insight into life in a care home, both as an employee and as a resident. Pauline will act as the voice for our residents, and is keen to help and support wherever she can in order to ensure that everyone receives the enriching, caring and fulfilling experience that they expect.

Firstly, I feel a real sense of privilege to be asked to step into this role. To support families who choose The Cedars as the home for their loved one or indeed for themselves as it really is a special place to be. A team that truly respects it is the 'home' for each and every resident, a place for their family to visit in the same way their family home was.
My Dad, Colin Norman has been in The Cedars since June 2023. When searching for the best home for him The Cedars stood out from the crowd. From Becky calling to introduce herself and offering to meet with me on a weekend, her day off... This spoke volumes to me and Becky still offers amazing support!
The one outstanding element for us as a family is how Dad's welfare is top priority, including enabling him to sit in reception, thus interacting with all the wonderful staff and visitors in a way that makes his world a happy place!
Having been on this journey over the past 8 years, full time for the past 5 years with Colin, I would like to support other families on their journey in any way I can. If I cannot help I will do my best alongside all the team at Cedars to direct you to pathways and other professionals that can.
