“We tend to forget that happiness doesn’t come as a result of getting something we

don’t have, but rather of recognising and appreciating what we do have.”

Welcome to your new home...

There are many reasons that we are so confident this is the home for you. We have put everything we know about senior living into this wonderful home and added some extras too. Our all-inclusive pricing says it all; everything you see on the following pages is included in one single weekly fee. When we say everything, we mean it. From our stunning - and now famously sociable - bar bistro, to the inspired events presented

Your friends are waiting.

throughout the four seasons, this is a home so different from most other care homes, you’ll probably want to view it twice, just to make sure your eyes aren’t deceiving you! That’s not a problem, we intentionally have a larger team than most so that nothing’s ever too much trouble, or too far away. Once you have read all about us here, you can turn to the back page and find out about all the different ways to get in touch with us.

Inside Leycester HouseWe have taken every care to create a home inside Leycester House. Our interior designs and furniture are unique, and more akin to the rooms and hallways of a boutique hotel. We have made every effort to give the home a personality, full of colour, artwork and objects that turn somewhere from a house into a home.

Your bedroom has a very large en-suite wet room, and it’s well lit and soothingly decorated. In the main living areas of the house you will find lounges with views over our landscaped gardens. Dining rooms and kitchens are evenly situated across all floors, offering you variety and convenience every day.

Encouraging a vibrant social scene within the home is the centre of everything we do at Leycester House, and our inspiring events take place regularly in the heart of the home: our bar bistro. It’s cosy and warm in the winter and opens up to our fabulous garden in the spring. When you view the home, be sure to take your time and savour each room, and sample the bistro. Maybe even choose your favourite reading spot!

“My Mother used to say that there are no strangers, only friends you haven’t met yet.”

The activities and events on offer to our residents and their friends all share a common theme; they are both inspiring and stimulating. The whole home was built around a central social area, taking in the bar bistro and the garden room areas, and it’s in here where the fun happens. From cabaret to casino and flamenco to flaming cocktails, there’s nothing we won’t try if our residents fancy it.

We’re not just focused on the social scene within the home either, the whole point of being in the heart of the community is to make it easier for friends and relatives to not just drop in, but to come and join the fun, as part of our community.

The atmosphere this creates is warm, fun and memorable, it’s what separates us from other homes and one of the primary reasons people choose Leycester House.

Of course, family and friends can’t make it every time, so we make sure that we keep our Facebook page updated with photos of our events each week, just like the images to the right. This means residents’ families can stay in the loop at all times. If you would like to follow the Leycester House community, simply search for us on Facebook and click ‘Like’ - you’ll then be able to see more photos of our events and read all the great comments we receive.

It may not sound important, but the attention to detail that went into choosing all the luxurious furnishings in Leycester House illustrates the effort we put into every aspect of the home, the care we provide and the events we put on.

Stunning interiors,hand-picked for our home.

The result? A beautifully crafted home in which everything feels right and looks fabulous. Turn the page to find even more reasons you will love Leycester House. We look forward to meeting you very soon.

Our bar bistro has been designed to reflect the sophistication our residents are accustomed to, retaining the feel and finish one would expect to find in a restaurant rather than a care home. The delicious, fine cuisine served up by our in-house chef continues to delight both residents and their families, whether it’s a Monday morning breakfast or a fine-dining Friday.

The menus change regularly using quality, locally sourced ingredients and our bistro affords residents the chance to dine as if they were in their favourite eatery. In addition to the food prepared on a daily basis for

Food, nutrition & fine diningour residents, we have regular gatherings or celebrations where we might hold a barbecue or hog roast to commemorate a special event. These have always been a roaring success and combine the inspired events at Leycester House with our hugely popular and successful kitchen.

Private Dining is a real treat. When you want to enjoy a meal with just your family or friends, we have a dining room especially for that. There is also a bespoke menu, and we’ll also do the washing up so you can spend more time catching up!

“It is a truly exceptional home. My friend became a resident just a few weeks ago and sings its praises each time I visit.”

ResidentialThis service invites people to become residents of Leycester House for one all-inclusive weekly fee. This includes a private bedroom with an en-suite wet room, and full use of the home’s wonderful facilities. Help and care is on hand 24/7 when required.

DementiaOur dedicated dementia suite is staffed by a carefully selected team of people. Residents benefit from a personalised environment that is customised to help them cope with everyday life, and that helps them feel safe and comfortable at all times of the day and night. Residents benefit from the same luxuries and dedicated care as everyone else in the home.

Day & Respite Day & respite care allows non-residents to enjoy all the benefits of Leycester House for a short period of time. A day at Leycester House is an ideal way of trying out the home prior to moving in permanently, and respite is perfect for people who need time to rest, or to allow caregivers elsewhere a break. A day includes transport to and from the home, breakfast, lunch, dinner, enjoyment of any of the activities that are taking place, and use of all the home’s facilities.

NursingWhen you need a little more care and need a registered nurse to help you, we have all the facilities on hand. We have an exceptional nursing suite with a skilled and highly experienced nursing team. Our rooms include profiling beds to ensure you are comfortable, complete with adaptable soft mattresses to care for your skin. We have the experience to care for you or your loved one at whatever stage of life you may be at.

The Leycester differenceYou will find this out for yourself by visiting many care homes and comparing what you find. However, there are four key areas that really emphasise the difference between Leycester House and other care homes. They matter to our residents and they matter to us as a responsible company that values people and personality.

All-inclusive feeThis, quite simply ‘does what it says on the tin’. We have been listening to our many residents over the years and the one thing that reduces stress and enables people to plan is the ability to know what you will be spending over a given period of time. That is why we operate an all-inclusive policy. And what’s more, when we say all-inclusive, we mean it. Fine dining with the family? No problem. Hairdressing? No problem. Chauffeur-driven car - it’s the same answer whatever you choose to do at Leycester House.

50% more staff than the industry averageThe obvious benefits of this are that there is never a rush. Nobody at Leycester House hasn’t got the time, or is busy doing something more important. There is nothing more important than our residents and having more staff than ever before enables us to ensure the relaxed, stress-free pace of life within the home.

We pay above the living wageBeing a pioneer in the business of care comes naturally to us! We believe that by valuing every member of staff from the Manager to the Chefs to the Cleaners, everyone benefits. We are able to attract the best staff, and what’s more we retain them, which means that the social scene in our home is the best. Staff know residents and residents always have a familiar face just around the corner.

Inspired and stimulating eventsThe events – as you will see on Facebook – attract family and friends and entertain residents every week. We listen to our residents too. If they want to try something new, we will look into it for them. This is about more than just scheduling the odd activity, it’s about providing our valued residents with high quality, stimulating and interactive entertainment.
