Situated in the quiet area of Carterton, just a short drive from Oxford, The Homestead is conveniently located near local shops and Kilkenny Lane Country Park.
The Homestead provides options for individuals and couples and ensures each resident receives a personalised care plan tailored to their evolving needs.

Our highly qualified care team is equipped to support a wide range of nursing needs, including specialised dementia care.
Residents enjoy a vibrant calendar of activities, events, and outings that cater to diverse interests and abilities, such as arts and crafts, baking, gardening, and themed events. Our award-winning music therapy, available in group or individual sessions, provides comfort and helps reduce feelings of isolation.
