Our 56 bedrooms are all decorated to high standards with modern furnishings and fittings and several of them are en-suite rooms. We have a 50s style American diner on the dementia unit of our care home which is very popular amongst residents and visitors, they can often be found enjoying a meal or drink in the diner.

Many of our staff at Lansbury Court Care Home have been with the home for over ten years and are experienced in caring for people with physical disabilities as a result of a stroke. We are regarded highly for our End of Life Care and are supported by District Nurses to provide catheter care.

Residents spend a lot of their time taking part in an activity or event or enjoying the home gardens, a pleasant and secure outdoor area. We host a monthly gentleman’s club and many of our other activities are based around residents interests and histories.

“After taking the difficult but necessary decision to place our mum into care, the help and reassurance we received from all staff, from management to carers was outstanding. They keep us updated, provide excellent activities for residents and their approach to the job they do is amazing. I couldn't recommend them high enough and can't thank them enough for the help they gave to my brother and I.”
