Our Facilities

Our Home

Summer Lane Care & Nursing Home is a purpose-built care home fully equipped to provide the highest standards of nursing care. Residents enjoy relaxing and socialising in the tearoom or outside on the terrace and in the courtyard garden in the summer months. The home has a dedicated activities room, hair salon and several comfortable lounges to enjoy.

Bedrooms

All our 103 bedrooms are comfortable and tastefully decorated, making them safe and relaxing places. All bedrooms are en-suite, with walk-in wet rooms, to aid independent living, however, there are assisted bathrooms on each floor for residents who prefer a bath or require a little more help with their personal care.

Lounge

Each of our dedicated nursing, dementia and residential wings has its own comfortable lounge and dining areas, which means residents can spend time relaxing in our quieter spaces or joining with sociable activities in our larger newly refurbished sitting and dining areas. Whatever their preference, residents choices are respected at all times.

Cosy Cafe

Our Cosy Cafe is a great meeting point for residents and families. With fresh coffee and home-baked cakes available every day, the cafe is the ideal place to entertain visitors and friends. Our front of house team will always be on hand to make you feel welcome.
