Jacqui, Leeds Customer Care Team, who are we?
Take a video tour of our care home
Discover everything you need to know about our home with our latest video tour. It’ll give you an overview of our home, from the care we provide to the facilities on offer, with photography of the bedrooms and living areas too.
Peaceful garden views from every room
This gorgeous Victorian villa once belonged to the Cadbury family. Despite being fully modernised, it still has original period features like high ceilings and huge bay windows that let the light pour in.
Great places to socialise, enjoy an activity or have quiet time
Although we’re just three miles from St Albans town, we have a wonderful setting and lots of outdoor space. So we like to spend time outdoors, especially in summer. We also bring lots of pretty flowers in from the garden.
Lots of space indoors
The two lounges, quiet lounge, and bright and airy dining room ensure there are many spaces for residents to relax in.

"The service was exceptionally kind and caring. People received care that was personalised and met their individual needs and, in many cases, exceeded people's expectations. We heard many stories about acts of kindness and how staff and managers worked creatively to achieve consistently good outcomes for people."
"Our mother was given the best care we could ever have asked for. Her every need was catered for on the physical and emotional level. The team was clearly dedicated and reflected a deep love and compassion for her."
Son of resident, 23 February 2024, carehome.co.uk
