Residents at Beechwood enjoy the enviable position of living in a purpose-built, single-floor care home - meaning all residents, regardless of mobility can enjoy the same freedom and independence.
Most rooms look into the beautiful, landscaped garden courtyard too, and make for great people watching and a lovely community feel - especially in the summer!
On joining Beechwood, you’ll enjoy a happy home-from-home where you feel safe, cared for and supported to do what makes you happy - with professional, caring staff, a grand home and a beautiful room.
We are a welcoming, friendly and kind-hearted home. Often our staff will have a laugh and a joke with our residents and all our staff take pride in getting to know our residents and their family members well. As a smaller home, we nurture an atmosphere where you can make new friends and enjoy the pleasures in life.
Even more important to us is making sure that you never feel lonely or bored again and can enjoy a wealth of new experiences. With varied, twice daily activities, special taster menus to sample dishes from around the world and opportunities to discover new goals and passions – there’s always something going on at Beechwood.
When residents first join, we understand that they may be feel lost, shy, or not quite confident. Maybe this is because of a long time alone or a medical ailment or just the nervousness of moving. All our new residents can be assured that we are here to help you to live the life you want, in the way you want, and really enjoy our services.
We hope to see you join us at Beechwood.
As a smaller care home, we are able to create a warm, family-like environment where residents, staff, and families feel truly at home. Our manager isn’t a distant figure—you’ll see them regularly, involved in day-to-day life. Whether you have a question, concern, or simply want to chat, you’ll know exactly who to turn to. It’s this hands-on approach that helps us build strong, lasting relationships with every resident and their loved ones.
Welcome to our care home family! I'm Kayleigh, and I'm delighted to be the manager of this wonderful place we call home.
My journey in care began in the most unexpected way—as a cleaner in a care setting. While ensuring spaces were spotless, I found myself drawn to the residents, their stories, and their smiles. I knew then that I wanted to play a more direct role in enhancing their lives, which led me to where I am today.
At the heart of my approach is the belief that no one should face loneliness in their golden years. I'm passionate about creating a vibrant community where residents can forge meaningful connections and enjoy each day to the fullest. Whether it's afternoon tea in the garden, arts and crafts sessions, or a trip out to the local garden centre, there's always something happening that brings joy and purpose.
I'm incredibly proud of our dedicated team who share my vision—putting residents at the centre of everything we do. Together, we create not just a care home, but a true home filled with warmth, laughter, and personalised care.
I look forward to welcoming you into our extended family, where every day is an opportunity to create beautiful memories together.
At Beechwood, we’ve created a warm and welcoming environment designed to feel like home from the moment you arrive. With 27 bedrooms, the majority of which are en-suite, and a range of thoughtfully designed communal spaces, our home offers comfort, privacy, and the opportunity to connect with others.
Each bedroom is carefully decorated in calming tones and fully furnished to provide a peaceful, private space where residents can relax and unwind. We encourage everyone to personalise their rooms with photos, mementos, and favourite pieces to make it truly feel like their own.
In-room features include:
A television with Freeview
WiFi access
Full furnishing and soft lighting
Telephone or access to cordless phones so calls can be taken wherever you like
An emergency call system, offering peace of mind 24/7
Our accommodation extends far beyond the bedroom. Residents have access to 2 comfortable lounges and 2 bright, spacious dining rooms — ideal settings for socialising, enjoying meals, or simply spending time with visitors. These shared spaces are the heart of the home, designed to foster companionship and community while offering plenty of room for individual choice and quiet moments.
Outside, a secure and beautifully maintained garden offers a tranquil space to enjoy the outdoors. Whether it’s a stroll among the flowers, catching up with family, or simply enjoying a sunny afternoon with a cup of tea, the garden provides a peaceful escape and regular opportunities for seasonal activities.
Whether you prefer quiet time in your room, group activities with friends, or fresh air in the garden, our accommodation is built around your comfort, choice, and wellbeing.
We believe that life in our home should be vibrant, fulfilling, and full of opportunity. That’s why we place such a strong emphasis on wellbeing — physical, emotional, and social. Our activities programme is carefully curated to offer a rich mix of experiences tailored to individual interests and abilities. From sing-alongs and arts & crafts to light exercise classes, gardening, and quiet one-to-one sessions, there’s something for everyone.
Activities are more than just a schedule — they’re woven into our daily care. Our team members take time to connect personally with residents, encouraging involvement and supporting those who may be shy at first to find their spark.
We also welcome visiting entertainers, local school groups, and regularly organise community outings, helping residents stay connected with the world around them.
A Partnership with Family and Friends
We know how important it is for families to stay involved in their loved one’s care. That’s why we see care as a partnership — between the resident, the home, and the family.
With your consent, family members are invited to be active participants in your care journey. From regular updates with staff and management to private consultations and unrestricted visiting (where appropriate), we aim to keep communication open and relationships strong.
Your family remains a vital part of your life here — not just welcome visitors, but valued collaborators in your continued wellbeing.
Living with Purpose
Wellbeing isn’t just about comfort — it’s about meaning. Many of our residents enjoy taking part in our Living with Purpose initiative, which offers opportunities to contribute to life at the home or support causes they care about.
Whether it’s helping with light home duties, mentoring others, or getting involved in charitable fundraising, having a role and a reason brings joy and fulfilment — and research shows it supports both mental and physical health.
Food & Dining: Familiar Comforts with a Twist
Mealtimes are about more than nutrition — they’re a highlight of the day. Our kitchen team prepares a variety of traditional and modern meals using fresh, nutritious ingredients delivered twice weekly..
Residents enjoy a choice of dishes and, where appropriate, can pair meals with a glass of red or white wine. We also run themed culinary experiences like Tasty Tuesdays and Fun Fridays, offering bite-sized treats from around the world — from mini Mexican tacos to Indian samosas and Chinese spring rolls.
These events spark curiosity and conversation — and some of the favourites even make their way onto our regular menu. Got something you’ve always wanted to try? Just let us know — we love a new idea.
We know that balancing work, family, and caregiving can be challenging—and we also know how important it is for older adults to feel connected, stimulated, and safe. That’s why our Day Care service offers a flexible, welcoming solution.
For just £60 per day, your loved one can spend the day with us enjoying a freshly prepared meal, a warm and friendly atmosphere, and the chance to take part in our home’s full activity programme—from games and crafts to sing-alongs and gentle exercise.
Whether staying for lunch, joining us for the whole day, or simply popping in for a bath and a cuppa, our guests are always treated with dignity, warmth, and care.
Bathing services are also available for a small additional charge.
Most importantly, we want every guest to leave with a smile.
