Our service at a glance
Longfield House consists of 5 different living areas, including a 5-bed home and 4 single occupancy flats. The 5-bed home has communal living spaces with a lounge, dining room, and kitchen, and each person has their own en-suite facilities. There are also 4 individual flats, one in the main house and three in the coach house. These provide opportunities for individuals to be more independent and live in their own space. The flats can also be used to support those who require extra support or find it difficult to share space with others. Externally, there is a courtyard and a garden with plenty of space for individuals to have BBQs, garden parties, or simply sit and enjoy the outside.
“Thank you to everyone at Longfield House for all their hard work, we appreciate that you keep us up to date by sending regular photos of our loved one doing activities.”

In addition to the community facilities in the local towns and cities there is also an abundance of community facilities nearby in the village.
