Wincanton's new, luxury care home takes shape

Bupa is bringing a new, state-of-the-art care home to Wincanton. Work has already begun at the site of The Bridles on Dyke’s Way, with the home expected to open in Spring 2026. Over the next five months, the home will see the installation of quality furnishings, fixtures and fittings and state-of-the-art equipment to support the needs of residents.

With 72 spacious and stylish en-suite bedrooms, The Bridles’ interior has been carefully designed to offer premium comfort and outstanding facilities, including two restaurants, a bar, café, hair salon, therapy room, relaxing lounges and a home cinema.

The new development will also feature innovative technology to support the team to deliver exceptional care and ensure residents are kept safe and secure, including thermal sensors, voice activated devices and online portal for families.

Bupa Care Homes Managing Director, Danni Davies, said: "We are proud and excited to be bringing this luxurious new home to Wincanton. We’re looking forward to recruiting a compassionate team, welcoming residents and building relationships with our local community.”

The new care home will provide nursing, residential and specialist dementia care and provide exciting new career opportunities for local people.

An on-site show suite will be open from February 2026 for those interested in care. If you’d like information about living at The Bridles or joining the new care home team you can register your interest at www.bupa.co.uk/the-bridles
