Larchwood Care Home

Nestled away in a quiet, rural location just outside Braintree in Essex, Larchwood is a friendly, purpose-built care home with 64 beds, offering residential dementia care.

Residents have a wide choice of places to relax, dine and socialise, with seven sitting rooms and four dining areas as well as the popular hairdressing salon, memory room and a sunny conservatory. The attractive garden at Larchwood includes a delightful sensory area and a summer house, and provides a popular spot for Residents to catch up with friends and family. The bright, comfortable bedrooms and living areas are all easily accessible by wheelchair.

The home’s caring team has created a family atmosphere, encouraging everyone to eat and celebrate special occasions together. Residents are invited to decorate their rooms with small items of their own furniture and treasured belongings so that it feels just like home. Daily life is carefully designed to support mind, body and soul.

Larchwood’s Home Manager makes sure that all Residents receive the kindest possible care. Our extensively trained team will deliver all the specialist care and support services that your loved one requires. Personalised care plans consider not only medical, personal and dietary needs, but also the individual’s likes and dislikes, religious preferences, and suggestions from family members that might make their stay with us that little bit more enjoyable.
