Book your respite stay in advance now

At Care UK, we understand the importance of a well-earned break. That’s why we are currently taking bookings for respite stays throughout winter.

Whether you are looking for a short-term stay for yourself, or you’re a carer in need of some time away, you can trust us to provide expert care in a safe and secure environment.   

Caring for an older loved one can be demanding, and at Care UK we recognise the importance of taking a well-earned break for rest and recuperation. Our respite stays mean you can take the time you need for yourself, knowing your loved one will receive the best of care in comfortable and luxurious surroundings. 

A hair and beauty salon, cinema and café* on their doorstep means your loved one can experience a holiday of their own, without having to travel at all! Our busy activities schedule has something for everyone, from gardening clubs to local theatre trips and boules.  

Bistro-style dining means your loved one can make new friends, whilst enjoying delicious and nutritious meals that are entirely tailored to their unique diets and preferences. 

With plenty to do, lots of great company, and home-cooked food, they may just want to stay a little while longer! 

*Facilities vary across Care UK homes, please contact the home for further details.
