Grange-Lea has been completely modernised and tastefully decorated whilst still retaining its original character and period features. There are four main communal areas. The front lounge, where you can simply relax and see the visitors come and go. The back lounge where most of our entertaining takes place and where you can also catch up on a bit of TV. The dining room with an adjacent conservatory and a kitchenette , and the garden lounge that enjoys direct access to our lovely, well-maintained gardens. Many of the bedrooms benefit from sea views or look out across the beautiful gardens so you're never far from a lovely view. The home is surrounded by stunning gardens that are maintained weekly by our gardener with year-round interest. The garden is easily accessible to all including wheelchair users. We have a very popular seating area where residents can relax in the sunshine chatting with friends or enjoy watching the very well fed rabbits! Throughout the year we hold tea parties, and other events which our residents, friends and family enjoy. Our rooms are spacious with a light and airy feel and many have views across the garden or sliding patio windows leading directly onto private garden areas. All our rooms are regularly decorated and well equipped so you feel comfortable. Our residents are welcome to bring in their own ornaments, treasured possessions and furniture to make their room feel like home. Our friendly handyman can put up shelves and pictures as required.
