Respite Care

A welcoming home offering high levels of care

The team at Watford House are caring, experienced and dedicated to creating a warm and homely environment while providing high levels of care and comfort. We offer a varied activities programme and encourage our residents to socialise and continue hobbies they enjoyed at home. From gardening to regular entertainment, there's something for everyone at Watford House.

The staff have been fantastic

My father became a resident in July last year, the staff have been fantastic and done their utmost to enable visits and keep him safe during this difficult time. We can now visit in a special room with a glass divider and can also keep in touch by video call. The staff are so friendly and I cannot praise them enough for the amazing job they do.
