We offer a semi-independent lifestyle.

All rooms are decorated to reflect the personality and preferences of each resident. The downstairs communal rooms is spacious and the dining room can easily seat six to eight guests when entertaining. The fully fitted kitchen is a shared area and can also be used as an additional dining area. There is a split level back garden - the ground level is used for barbecues and outside entertaining and the higher level has a quiet place for relaxing, with a beautiful view of Eastbourne. Local shops are a five minute walk away, and the town centre only five minute drive.

**St. Matthew's Road**
St. Matthews Road consists of two separate houses next door to one another located in a pleasant tree-lined road in St. Leonards-on-Sea. The homes enjoy easy access to the local shops at Silverhill and there is a regular bus service to Hastings and Battle. The beautiful Sussex countryside and coastline is also nearby. There is a wide variety of leisure activities and places of interest to visit and service users make good use of these. Within each of the houses there is a flat for one individual whilst three/four individuals share the rest of the building. Each house has a large rear garden, and one has an additional activity room. The gardens are well maintained and often used for social activities in the summer.
