Very Sheltered Accommodation

What is Very Sheltered Accommodation?
The aim of Very Sheltered Accommodation is to provide older people with their own accommodation so that they can continue living independently within their own homes with any care and support they need coming directly to them.

The accommodation forms part of a complex, each having communal facilities such as a restaurant and activity rooms. This means that there's always time to socialise.

The accommodation has been designed to a high specification and promote comfortable living.

Throughout out very sheltered accommodation there is an alarm linked to a 24 hour control centre, so an added peace of mind, that help is always at hand.

The Benefits
Very sheltered accommodation is ideal for individuals who sometimes require help with daily living but don't require the type of medical care provided in traditional nursing homes. An assisted living apartment in Sycamore Court ensures individuals dignity, privacy and independence are maintained but leaves you with the peace of mind that help is at hand at any time.

Sycamore Court has 31 two-bedroom and 4 one-bedroom apartments of varying size and design. If you are looking to buy a property at Sycamore Court, please visit our website regularly as we will have details of all properties that are currently available.

The Court, which was built in 1992, is situated near the centre of the attractive little town of Oxted in Surrey. It is built around a pleasant landscaped courtyard with car parking for Owners, Staff and visitors.

Our Very Sheltered Accommodation homes have 35 totally self-contained apartments arranged on three floors. These comfortable apartments are easily accessible by two lifts as well as stairs. In addition, there are communal facilities on the ground floor: a dining room, a very attractive lounge and a hobbies room. On the first floor there is a well equipped guest suite for visitors to the Court.

Our Very Sheltered Accommodation homes are conveniently situated within easy walking distance of supermarkets, shops, post office, banks, leisure centre, cinema, health centre and dental practices. Bus stops are close by as is the railway station which operates trains to East Croydon, London and East Grinstead.

The level of staffing and the services provided at our Very Sheltered Accommodation are greater than found in many other retirement developments. There is a Manager, who works partly at the Court and partly from home, to ensure the smooth administration of the Court.

Our Very Sheltered Accommodation also have a team of House Managers, one of whom is in the Court twenty-four hours a day. They supervise the work of a team of Housekeeping Assistants who keep the Court and apartments in good order.

The Court has a comfortable dining room which offers a very good, reasonably priced, three course lunch every day of the year for those who wish to have it. Meals can also be taken to apartments for Owners who are unwell.
A handyman comes in once a week to undertake repairs and maintenance both in the Court and in the apartments.

Our Very Sheltered Accommodation are not a residential care home or a nursing home but a place for relatively fit and active people. Its aim is to assist independent living, provide security and remove some of the chores of running a household.

Apartments at our Very Sheltered Accommodation are cleaned weekly, there is a laundry and ironing service if required and, by arrangement, staff will undertake additional domestic services such as shopping.
