With only 16 beds at The Swallows we can provide truly personalised care as staff and residents come to know each other very well and we quickly learn what each resident needs and wants. While always remembering our main aim to keep residents comfortable and safe, we adapt our services to suit each individual's requirements as they change over time.
The home is fully equipped to meet all the needs of elderly people with restricted mobility and is furnished and maintained to a high standard. We also have a friendly and highly skilled staff team who work together to ensure residents are well cared for at all times.

Services
All bedrooms at The Swallows are singles, kept to a high standard of cleanliness and decoration. Residents can choose their own colour schemes and personalise their rooms as they wish with ornaments and pictures. Within the building there are two very well appointed lounges either side of a compact dining area near the central kitchen.
We also support and respect residents' spiritual needs. As part of this we have regular visits from local clergy as well as services conducted by the Salvation Army. Occasionally, residents may wish to go out for a change of scene.

Residents can enjoy really satisfying meals at The Swallows. We have excellent cooks who take pride in producing varied home-cooked meals that cater for the particular requirements of each resident. The cooks talk to the residents and adjust the menus over time to reflect their feedback and changing tastes.

My mother-in-law lives here and always says great things about the staff, events and food. She has made friends since she moved here and is feeling settled. The place is clean. We attended the Christmas party with the kids last month and it was absolutely brilliant! The Tina Turner impersonator was fabulous and the residents had a good time. I wouldn't mind moving in myself!
