Nestled in a leafy suburb of Leeds, our care home offers an exceptional level of care in a warm, home-from-home environment. Surrounded by lush greenery, our facility provides a tranquil setting for our residents to enjoy. As a team we are committed to delivering excellent, personalised care.

The inviting interiors, featuring comfortable seating and thoughtful decor, create a cosy and welcoming atmosphere where residents can feel at ease and truly at home with all our 51 rooms offering en-suite facilities.

Understanding the importance of a stimulating and engaging environment, we offer a wide range of activities tailored to our residents’ preferences. One of our standout offerings is our unique music therapy experience, designed to enhance emotional well-being and provide joy through the power of music.

In additional to our residents’ physical needs, we also cater to the spiritual needs of our residents by having a Chaplain available for all faiths and even those with non-denominational beliefs, ensuring everyone feels supported and valued.

To further enrich our residents' experience, we have a sensory room designed to stimulate various senses, promoting relaxation and mental engagement.

Our culinary team offers a diverse menu that changes daily, with the flexibility to tailor meals to specific dietary requirements, ensuring all residents enjoy nutritious and delicious food.

On both our floors, our care home features comfortable lounges where residents can relax, socialise, or enjoy quiet time in a cosy setting. These spaces are thoughtfully designed with plush seating and warm decor to provide a homely feel. Similarly, our dining areas are designed to be inviting and homely, offering a pleasant environment for residents to enjoy their meals. These communal spaces are integral to creating a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere where residents feel truly at home.

Our specifically designed Garden Room is an indoor space that exudes a refreshing and serene ambiance, reminiscent of an outdoor garden. The large windows allow natural light to flood in, enhancing the lush green of the artificial grass carpet. The comfortable wicker seating, accented with soft cushions, invites relaxation and conversation. The potted plants and tasteful decor add a touch of nature, making this a perfect retreat for enjoying a peaceful moment with a view of the surrounding greenery.

One of the highlights of our care home is our purpose-built Gledhow Arms pub, a unique space that offers residents the opportunity to visit their very own pub. Here, they can enjoy both alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, engage in bar games, and watch TV, fostering a sense of community and normalcy in a familiar, enjoyable setting.
