About Laurel Lodge Care Home

The Victorian house offers a home setting where residents can continue interests and hobbies, with activities planned around individual likes and dislikes. The service is registered as a care home without nursing for older people and younger adults.
Freshly cooked meals cater for special dietary needs, with residents able to eat in the dining room or their own rooms.
