Home Made Food

We believe quality cuisine is of utmost importance in providing a varied diet for our residents. Our food is freshly made by Denise our Head Cook who loves to provide nutritious, beautifully presented meals.

Menus are continually prepared in advance and as per the availability of seasonal produce. Fresh herbs are hand-picked from our kitchen garden, and we have a small orchard with apple, cherry, and pear trees, all of which are used for delightful desserts. We are also incredibly lucky to be able to pick our very own strawberries which are ideal for our splendid cream teas, which are enjoyed by our residents on the lawn, if the weather is permitting.

We are able to cater for special requirement diets and always listen to the likes and dislikes of each resident.

Here are some examples of our menus.

We have recently introduced menu cards. These cards are incredibly visual, and we believe they enhance the appetite. Word menus are perfect for prompting the imagination, whilst our menu cards offer a visual memory prompt of food which tastes rather amazing! They have so far proved a success with some of our residents.
