Dovecote Care Home

Having recently been refurbished (2023), Dovecote is a beautiful home, surrounded by stunning large gardens with wheelchair friendly pathways. The bedrooms and communal spaces, including light and airy lounges and dining rooms, are beautifully decorated, with many of bedrooms overlooking the gardens. The team are dedicated to enriching the lives of their residents, providing residential, dementia and respite care, which can be booked in advance. The staff, some of whom have been there for over 10 years, are passionate about the home being part of the local community. Every Wednesday, from 2pm to 4pm, they welcome local people along to play bingo and enjoy tea and cake with the residents, who love these regular events. The residents also attend the High Spen Community Group, which is a big part of the local community. The team are devoted to giving their residents a sense of belonging and purpose, ensuring they are actively involved in the running of the home. One of the residents is responsible for the home’s library, while others support with fundraising for the community group mentioned above. The home is a hive of activity, with the residents enjoying everything from animal therapy and games afternoons, to a gardening club and trips out in the minibus. Dovecote also has a ‘Magic Table’, a revolutionary piece of technology designed for people living with dementia, which encourages them to socialise through interactive light games, which encourage gentle movement and cognitive stimulation. The home also has a hairdressing salon, for regular appointments with a mobile hairdresser. Dovecote’s chef and catering team serve delicious, home cooked food in the dining rooms, with everything from roast dinners with all the trimmings, to fish and chip Fridays. There are always vegetarian and lighter options available, with home-baking each day for afternoon tea.Like all CLS Group homes, Ancliffe adheres to modern standard and is registered with regulatory body, the Care Quality Commission, whilst being supportive of any beneficial community initiatives.
