In addition to the comfort of your own room, our excellent lounge and dining areas are delightful to relax in, and our bright, airy conservatory restaurant is perfect to enjoy our home cooked, healthy and nutritious meals and home baking.

Some of our rooms have warm welcoming views of the sea, our gardens and the local countryside.

We’re also pleased to have a wide range of activities, entertainment and events on offer at Astley House, with our programme created by our Health and Wellbeing Coordinator based on the wishes and requests of our residents. Having our own Mini Bus also offers the freedom to arrange outings on a regular basis, whether to the beach, local shops or further afield.

We’re also keen to ensure that everyday activities are also accommodated: our residents’ families are welcome to visit at any time and can even join us for Sunday Lunch or to enjoy our delicious home baking with Afternoon Tea.
