The Limes Residential Home is situated in a pleasant part of Fenton, Stoke-on-Trent. Many amenities can be found within walking distance including The Parish of Christ Church, a modern doctor's surgery and a variety of shops.
There is good access to the A34, A500, the M6 and A50 and the home is well served by public transport. The purpose built home has been thoughtfully expanded over the last few years.
A brand new 14 bed luxury wing was completed in 2017. All of the bedrooms are decorated to the highest standard and have en-suite facilities, most of which have showers with wheelchair accessibility. The home provides a variety of lounges, including two quiet sitting areas and two dining rooms.
The newest addition to the home in 2017 includes an Orangery which has become a favourite for residents both in the winter and summer.
The home also boasts a beautiful fully secure garden and patio where our residents can sit out and enjoy the outdoors in a safe environment.
All our bedrooms, lounges, dining rooms, bathrooms and toilets have a nurse call point fitted and TV points are found in every bedroom. Private telephone lines may be fitted by arrangement.
