Ashton House is proud to offer both residential and nursing care, including a dedicated unit for elderly residents who are frail or mentally infirm. We also provide a day care service to support those who need assistance during the day. While our residents are generally over sixty years of age, we do accept younger residents if we can meet their nursing and care needs. Additionally, we often provide care for married couples or partners who require long-term nursing care and can no longer live at home independently.
Our accommodations include single and double bedrooms available on the ground, first, and second floors, with the majority of rooms featuring en-suite facilities for added comfort and privacy. Spacious lifts provide residents with easy access to all rooms, ensuring mobility throughout the home.
Ashton House is equipped with assisted baths, showers, and toilets to ensure that all residents receive the necessary support for their personal care needs. Various lounges are interspersed throughout the home, providing comfortable spaces for relaxation and socialization. One of our two dining rooms is a large lounge diner that leads to an enclosed walled courtyard/patio in the Hazelwood unit, offering a beautiful and secure outdoor space.
Our gardens have been beautifully landscaped for the enjoyment of our residents, providing a serene environment for relaxation and outdoor activities. The entire home is accessible to wheelchair users, ensuring that all residents can move around freely and comfortably. Additionally, we have a hairdressing salon with weekly visits from a local hairdresser to help our residents look and feel their best.
At Ashton House, we understand that for some families, it is important for their loved ones to remain at home rather than enter long-term residential care. Our day care service supports families and older individuals in achieving this goal, while also providing relatives the opportunity to enjoy family life and the older person the chance to retain a good degree of independence.

The care provided by the team has been amazing for both my Mum and my Dad who were both residents here. We were always made to feel very welcome and could see how much the team members supported and looked after Mum especially who was a resident for over 5 years.

Ashton House team escorted our father to his wife, of nearly 70 years, funeral. It was a very sad day, but the team were extremely sensitive and discrete and looked after dad with love and care. We thank everyone there, from the reception to all the carers and staff who look after us when we visit, and for getting dad to the funeral without any fuss. Well done Ashton House.
