Overview
Kings Court care home provides specialist residential and respite care for older people. The team takes pride in delivering flexible, personalised and innovative care.
There's a bedroom to suit every taste at Kings Court, and each is warm, bright and comfortable. The lifestyle team organises activities, outings and events tailored to residents' needs and interests, and the home is also active in the close-knit community of Barnard Castle, taking part in local craft fairs as well as groups like the WI.
The historic building used to be the King’s Head hotel. Charles Dickens once stayed here and even mentioned it in ‘Nicholas Nickleby’. The hotel ballroom is now the residents’ lounge, and many bedrooms are generously sized too.
