Our care home in Bridgwater
The Rosary is easily accessible. We’re less than a 10-minute drive from Bridgwater town centre – on Mayfield Drive. The scenery here is spectacular, with bedrooms and lounges overlooking the Quantock Hills.
Other rooms within the home overlook the Durleigh Reservoir, where you can see the boats during the summer months. We must have some of the best views in Somerset!
Our Bridgwater care home provides a safe space in which elderly people can feel comfortable and enjoy fulfilling lives. We have many wonderful facilities, including:
- 102 lovely bedrooms, some with ensuite wet room facilities – we invite our residents to make the space their own with reminders of cherished memories.
- a specialist suite called ‘Snowdrop’ dedicated to residents living with dementia and more intensive nursing needs.
- a hairdressing salon – we love to spoil ourselves with a spot of pampering therapy.
- spacious lounges where our residents can gather with each other and visit loved ones to relax, catch up and make plans for the day.
- a dining room where we enjoy freshly cooked, nutritious meals prepared by our chef.
- beautiful secure gardens with raised planters and lots of seating. They’re wheelchair accessible, so people with greater nursing needs can enjoy them too.
- a heated summer house – a lovely spot to take in the stunning scenery all year round.

The team at our Bridgwater care home
Our nursing and dementia care home in Bridgwater is one close-knit extended family. The team is led by our devoted Home manager, Natali, who has been with us for more than 25 years!
We have lots of experience, with many of our staff members long-serving members. Our home has state-of-the-art nursing equipment, including full-body hoists. We embrace new technology to improve the care we provide.
The team is highly skilled in supporting people living with dementia and memory loss, brain injuries, and neurodegenerative conditions, such as multiple sclerosis and motor neurone disease.
We take a person-centric approach to care, developing care plans designed to meet individuals' health needs. We continually assess and evaluate these plans so they can evolve while our residents are with us.
Sanctuary Care is a not-for-profit care provider, which means any surplus income goes straight back into our homes, residents, and staff. This helps us to ensure the care we provide is the very best it can be.
