Our home is ideally located near Jubilee Lake, which is an area of ancient woodlands and flower-rich meadows. We are only minutes from the quaint market town of Royal Wootton Bassett. Royal Wootton Bassett is a town well regarded for its close links with the Royal Air Force, which was until most recently, based at Lyneham.
Marsh Farm Manor offers first class residential and dementia care and residential care for up to 66 residents.
Marsh Farm Manor offers a warm, safe and friendly environment, with facilities to make you feel at home in our care. Dedicated carers are recruited and trained to ensure care and support that is tailored to each resident’s needs. They have also been specially selected for their personal qualities, such as being instinctively warm with a natural desire to help others – taking the time to have a friendly chat, reminisce or share a joke.
