Our Building and Facilities |

Our lounges are sociable places where our residential care home really comes to life. Residents can take part in organised activities, play a board game, enjoy an aperitif, or simply chat over a cup of coffee and a slice of the chef’s freshly baked cake. At the same time there are quiet rooms where residents can enjoy the calmer atmosphere with a book or newspaper. |

Activities Are So Important |
---|
At Acacia Mews Care Home we know how important an active lifestyle is for the well-being of our residents, both physically and mentally. We have a dedicated team of Activity Coordinators devoted to planning a lively activities schedule, which could be something they’ve never done before, such as:
We really love our enclosed courtyard. It’s a charming spot to take a break in the fresh air with a cup of tea and a book, or to get those green fingers dirty by working in the raised beds. We are well connected to the local Hatfield and St Albans communities; groups, schools and societies are often invited to visit and there are regular trips out to local sites of heritage interest, as well as shopping trips to nearby Hatfield town centre and visits to cafés, churches in St Albans, garden centres and pubs for lunch. |
