Mayor unveils new café at The Mill House care home

A new residents’ café at The Mill House care home has been officially opened by the mayor of Skipton – coinciding with an open afternoon at the onsite care suites.

Councillor Sheila Bentley was welcomed for the opening and naming of The Anchor Hitch café with the ceremony including a barge moored up on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal alongside the venue. 

Anchor’s Community Partnership Manager Caryn Ferguson said:

We were delighted that Councillor Bentley agreed to unveil our new resident’s café and we had a great day.

Our open afternoon for our eight onsite care suites was well received and it was great to host members of the public at our lovely home.

The Mill House in Skipton is a luxurious residential care home within private landscaped gardens located on the historic site of a former silk mill. It offers first class residential and dementia care for up to 86 residents, in a light, spacious and elegant setting.

The Mill Lodge is connected to the care home via a glass walkway and boasts eight fully furnished all-inclusive care suites complete with a kitchenette, lounge bedroom and en-suite. The care suites are suitable for single occupants and couples. For more information please visit here.
