I thoroughly enjoy my job and feel so passionate about caring for our residents.  I like the challenges I encounter and that no two days are the same.  I love meeting new people and it gives me great job satisfaction to work with such a dedicated, caring team of people.

I must say this is one of the most enjoyable jobs I’ve ever had. You never seem to do the same thing from one day to the next which, at times, can be challenging, but also makes your job extremely varied, and certainly never boring. I love the fact that one minute you could be reconciling a bank statement and then the next dancing the Charleston with residents. Also, I must say working in the Yorkshire Dales with a view like ours certainly doesn’t hurt . . . it’s beautiful.

A warm and safe welcome

To start your enquiry simply click 'Enquire now' at the top of the page and either call us or complete an online enquiry form.

We’ll provide you with full details of the home, along with any other information you’d like, such as sample menus and activity schedules.

Whether you’re looking to stay with us permanently, or for a short break, we’d be delighted to take you on a show round of the home in person, subject to meeting COVID-19 safety guidelines. Simply book a tour with the home manager once you’ve made your enquiry.

We can also provide a virtual show round if you’d prefer. Either way, we’re keen to show you what daily life is like here and for you to meet our friendly team. You can also see for yourself how we keep residents safe.

We hope you decide that following your visit that you or your loved one would like to move into the home, in which case we’ll organise an assessment to make sure we can meet all your care needs.

Ensuring residents’ safety and wellbeing is our absolute priority.

Our friendly team will discuss every area of moving-in with you in detail to make sure you and your loved-one know exactly what to expect and feel confident, safe and welcomed when coming to live with us.

We understand how important visits are for everyone and we follow government guidelines in welcoming regular visits from family and friends. We also actively support our residents to have visits away from the care home, and make sure this is always in line with any government COVID-19 guidance.

As each of our homes are different, the home manager will provide all the information you need around visiting.
