Food to suit everyone

Nutritious and well-balanced meals are very important and all of our meals are prepared in our own kitchens.

Freshly cooked food, chosen to provide our Residents with a varied daily menu.

Continental breakfast can be served in the Resident’s room, or Residents may come down to the dining room for a full breakfast. Lunch and supper in the dining room are regarded as social occasions and family & friends are welcome to join us (please let us know in advance if you are coming to join us and confirm that the Resident is aware).

Apart from breakfast, other meals will only be served to Residents in their own rooms if they are unwell or by special request.

We believe in ensuring there are occasional indulgences and fresh cakes and pastries are among our specialities! Although meals are taken at set times daily, light snacks and drinks are available 24 hours a day.

A self-service facility for hot & cold drinks and snacks is available to residents and families in the dining room at all times during the day.
