Edgehill Care Home
Discover bespoke residential care from a highly trained care team in our welcoming care home.
Edgehill Care Home provides a safe and home-from-home environment within a real village community. Situated in the heart of Liden, a quiet residential area on the outskirts of historic Swindon.
We provide high-quality residential, respite and end of life care for older people, including those with dementia, sensory loss or mental health care needs. As your situation changes, so does the level and type of care we deliver. Our team are specially trained to provide as little or as much high-quality care you need.
There are several lounges, a large conservatory and dining areas throughout the home, plus a large garden and enclosed paved courtyards, with plenty of outdoor furniture to sit out on sunny days with a cup of tea.
Social activities
We place great emphasis on social activities and maintaining the type of life you have had at home, whether that is a quiet and relaxed lifestyle or an active lifestyle.
Four-legged and feathered friends are always welcome. We sometimes have visits from llamas and birds of prey which everyone loves.
We have weekly trips out to the coast, garden centres, pub lunches, museums and local beauty spots.
We like to visit the local cafe for coffee and cake followed by a musical entertainer or a quiet movie afternoon, depending on what you desire.
Dining
At Edgehill Care Home you will be served freshly prepared home cooked meals by our team of expert chefs. They ensure all our meals are healthy, nutritionally balanced and, most importantly, locally sourced wherever possible. Meals are served in our superb dining room, but you also have the option for food to be served in your room for a more private dining experience.
Nutrition is an important part of the care we provide. That’s why our catering team take time to get to know your likes and dislikes before putting together a vibrant and varied menu for you to choose from.
Bedrooms
There are 60 single bedrooms for people living at Edgehill Care Home across the ground floor. One room can be used as a double room to accommodate a couple who wish to remain together, with their other room used as a lounge.
The bedrooms are a blank canvas for you to personalise with your own photos, pictures and furniture to help you feel at home. It also helps our care team understand what’s important to you, help in building a warm relationship.
Gardens
We have a stunning enclosed and secure garden with level walkways around the lawn and plenty of flowerbeds if you enjoy gardening. Our garden is a great spot for activities and eating outside. Plus, there’s plenty of space to sit out, and a patio area with extra tables and chairs to sit back and relax with a cuppa.

This is the first home Mum has gone into. My first contact regarding my worries about Mum was with the Deputy Manager. Instantly I became less worried. She put my mind at rest on so many issues and questions I had. I found her to be very competent with her knowledge and skills showing a great deal of experience she has. The Deputy Manager always had time for my questions and was extremely efficient with feedback. Having this kind of approachable personality wanting to put my and my family’s mind at rest. Also, the carers are well-mannered and respectable with the residents.

Mum was a resident of Rochester Care Home for nearly 6 years. I cannot thank the manager and her wonderful team enough for all they did for her while she was there. She could not have been in a better place for the last years of her life. As a family, we have got to know the staff as dear friends who have always greeted us with a cheery smile and ‘gone that extra mile’ for all involved. Mum spent the last two weeks of her life receiving palliative care. She was treated with dignity and compassion. My family have felt very supported by the manager and her staff during this difficult time for which we are truly thankful. We cannot praise Rochester Care Home enough for the work they do.

As soon as I stepped inside the Nursing Home I sensed a friendly caring atmosphere, and I knew that my husband would be well looked after and in safe hands. The staff could not be more professional and helpful to both my husband and myself and nothing too much bother for them. Every resident has their own room and is encouraged to bring personal belongings to make it their home. I can relax knowing that my husband is being cared for 24/7.

My family member lived at the care home for a number of years, and I honestly don’t know what we would have done, as a family, without them. They were so supportive of our family as well as providing above and beyond care to my family member. I will always recommend this wonderful home to anyone!

My grandad has been a resident for three weeks and the positive change in his mental health and wellbeing has been exponential. He feels safe and cared for and I am secure in the fact he is receiving quality care. The staff have been supportive and what could have been a stressful transition has in fact been surprisingly easy. I am grateful to all staff and residents who have made this more a pleasure for my grandad.

My mum has been a resident for the last 2 and a bit years and during that time I have seen a huge improvement in her overall physical health. She has actually put weight on as she is getting 3 good meals a day unlike when she was living on her own, and she excepts help now when there’s a medical issue and let’s the staff get her the help that is needed medically. Before she went in she would refuse any intervention. The accommodation is very nice, the rooms are adequate for her needs, the garden area is very nice, and she has made friends. The staff are always professional and caring and residents are treated with the utmost dignity, the food is good, and plenty of it. A massive thank you to ALL the staff.
