ACTIVITIES

STAY ACTIVE. HAVE FUN. ENJOY LIFE.

Goatacre Manor  is a care home located in the beautiful surroundings of Goatacre, Wiltshire, and although it’s a very peaceful place to live, we ensure that there is no lack of daily stimulation, fun or active inspiration. We have a dedicated well-being team who create opportunities for everyone to enjoy and make the most of their day, from artistic and community building fun to outdoor excursions and even opportunities to realise their dreams like flying a tiger moth! This is one retirement home that truly goes above and beyond expectations! The happiness and comfort of our residents and their wonderful feedback give us so much pleasure!

In addition to being able to enjoy the very British activity of watching cricket at the adjoining Goatacre Cricket Club, we at Goatacre Manor empower our residents to continue participating in as many of their hobbies as possible and offer a wide selection of activities in our retirement home. We understand that each of our residents is unique, we appreciate their individuality and their specific needs, and we cater to them accordingly. Also, we often spend a great deal of time listening to our residents reminisce and seek information from family and friends to ensure a good understanding of our residents’ desires, preferred activities and previous hobbies while living in a retirement home.
