Overview
Agincourt Care Home was established in 1986 as the first home in the Agincare group. Since then we have expanded to include over 80 locations nationwide, yet Agincourt maintains a special place in our history and portfolio. The care home boasts spacious communal areas and beautiful gardens in a home-from-home setting with events, activities and trips out planned daily for our residents.
Residents are encouraged to personalise and make the space their own with the on-site care team taking time to get to know them, their preferences and their desires
Social activities
There’s something to suit everyone in our social activities programme, from entertainment, exercise and flower arranging to arts and crafts, coffee mornings, cooking and much more. We are only a short distance from the award-winning, Weymouth beach and residents take regular trips down to the seaside for a drink, or fish and chips on the harbour during the summer months. When we have access to a minibus from one of our sister homes we like to make the most of it with trips out. A recent voyage around Portland Harbour on the MV Freedom was a real success. Our residents also love visiting Portland Bill and the tea rooms at Moreton.
Dining
At Agincourt Care Home you will be served freshly prepared home-cooked meals by our team of expert chefs. They ensure all our meals are healthy, nutritionally balanced and, most importantly, locally sourced wherever possible. Meals are served in our superb dining rooms, but you also have the option for food to be served in your room for a more private dining experience
Bedrooms
There are 30 single bedrooms at Agincourt Care Home (although one can be used as a double room to accommodate a couple who wish to remain together), across the ground floor and the first floor. All our rooms have ensuites or washbasins in the room. Rooms without ensuites have accessible wet rooms and bathrooms nearby. We also have a jacuzzi bathroom upstairs.
Most of the bedrooms on the ground floor have direct access to our garden, with room for a table and chairs.
The bedrooms are a blank canvas for you to personalise with your own photos, pictures and furniture to help you feel at home. It also helps our care team understand what’s important to you.
Gardens
We have a lovely enclosed and secure garden with a large lawn and flowerbeds.
If you enjoy watching the wildlife then our garden is a great place to spend a sunny afternoon watching the birds– in and around our enclosed pond and our bird feeders. You can also get involved in gardening, planting up hanging baskets and filling the bird feeders.
Our garden is a great spot for BBQs and garden parties in the summer
