Ashley House is currently undergoing a refurbishment programme, due for completion in late 2008.

Ashley House is conveniently situated within the historic Roman town of Cirencester, and is within easy reach of local shops, amenities and the beautiful Abbey grounds. Purpose-built to the highest specifications in traditional Cotswold stone, the home is set around a charming sheltered courtyard garden that, with its array of pretty tubs and planters, is a delight to sit in.

The home has a number of large sunny lounges, and a licensed bar is available where residents may enjoy a pre-dinner drink or entertain their own guests. All of the tastefully decorated bedrooms are light and airy, and all have en-suite facilities for privacy and convenience. Activities are an important part of life at Ashley House and our activity organiser ensures there is always something going on. Activities within the home include games of bridge and scrabble, art workshops and musical entertainment. Out of the home visits are organised to near-by attractions like the Cirencester Polo Club, the Abbey Grounds and the charming Cotswold countryside.

Bupa Care Homes

All our homes offer the quality of care you'd expect from Bupa. We employ dedicated, well trained staff, to provide 24-hour care in a professional and respectful way.

Above all, each resident is treated as an individual, and able to exercise choice in all aspects of their care. We encourage as full and active a lifestyle as possible, with rules and regulations kept to minimum, and visitors are welcome at any time.

Each resident has their own regularly updated care plan. Additional services such as speech therapy or physiotherapy can always be arranged, as can opticians and dentists appointments.

All rooms have television points and safety features such as smoke detectors and 24-hour nurse-call systems. Residents are welcome to bring personal belongings and small items of furniture, and pets are allowed in some homes.

Each home has an activities organiser to provide stimulating and interesting activities, taking account of residents' interests. There is always a varied menu of fresh, nutritious food, but special dietary or cultural needs will always be catered for.

Fees vary for each home, room and the level of care needed. Please contact the home manager directly to get an individualised quote.

Why not visit your local home and find out what sets Bupa care homes apart?
