Short-Term Stays
Support, just when you need it.

Whether it's after a hospital stay, during recovery, or when a regular carer needs a break, our short-term stays offer calm, professional care in a homely setting, without the pressure of a long-term commitment.

You can stay for a few days or a few weeks, with full access to the village, our team, and the same level of support offered to all our residents.

What’s Included

Short-term residents are welcomed as part of the community from day one. Whether you're sociable or prefer quiet time, we’ll make sure your stay reflects your preferences.

We’ll also make the paperwork and planning simple, so you can focus on feeling better, or just having a break.

Calm, Consistent, Flexible

Sometimes a short stay makes all the difference.

If you’re considering care for the first time, a short-term stay can be a helpful step. It’s a chance to get to know us, experience the village, and make future decisions with confidence.
