Brief description

Burcot Grange is a large, detached Victorian building located in a rural setting in the village of Burcot. The premises have been developed and upgraded for their purpose as a residential care home for older people. A number of the rooms provide extensive views of the surrounding countryside.

The home has two passenger lifts to enable the service users to access the accommodation above ground floor level more easily. The home has attractive, well-maintained gardens and external areas where the service users and their visitors can sit in warmer weather. Car parking facilities are provided at the front of the premises.

The current owners have operated the home successfully since 1990.
 
The home is registered to provide personal care for a maximum of forty older people who are frail and unable to live independently. The service users may also have a physical disability, sensory disability or mental health needs.

The home is also able to accommodate up to three people with low dependency needs in two ground floor suites adjacent to the main building. Extensive roof space in the eaves of the premises has been utilised to provide three large, self-contained units that can accommodate a maximum of five people, who are primarily self-caring, but may also require support from staff. The home provides a respite care service and two rooms are used for this purpose.

A day care service for a limited number of people can also be provided on request.
 
The stated aim of the home is to provide high quality care by dedicated professional staff within a friendly, safe and comfortable environment where everyone has the opportunity to enjoy supportive independence with home comforts, freedom of choice and an individual life style.
 
The reader is advised to contact the home directly for the most up to date information about fees.
