Our home is your home

Applewood was originally a working farm and shop before becoming part of Bramley Army Camp, where it was used as the Officers’ Mess.

The home has comfortably furnished lounges, a tranquil quiet room and a large, bright dining room and conservatory.

The building is set in landscaped enclosed gardens, accessible for residents and guests to enjoy year round.

Applewood offers a mixture of single and double rooms, set on two floors, many with views over the gardens. A passenger lift ensures wheelchair access throughout the home.

We have the latest technology, enabling our residents and visitors to be up to date and connected during their stay here. A fully accessible minibus allows our residents to get out and about on a regular basis.

We care about high standards

In January 2021, Applewood was rated ‘Good’ overall in an inspection by England’s health and adult social care regulatory body, the Care Quality Commission (CQC).
