Founded in 1947, it has a long standing reputation for delivering excellent standards of care. Initially established in a large Victorian house at 115 Banbury Road, Oxford, it is now housed in a purpose built state of the art facility, completed in the summer of 2018. This provides 38 ensuite bedrooms, some of which are suitable for couples, and high quality communal facilities including a large lounge, a dining room, a fully equipped activities suite with IT, wellness and beauty rooms as well as a separate 2-bedroom suite and a large, landscaped garden.
