Barchester Mortain Place Care Home

Care built around the individual

Mortain Place is a purpose-built care home close to Sovereign Harbour, providing residential care, dementia care and respite or short stays.

Rather than expecting residents to fit around a set routine, the team takes time to understand each person's life story, preferences, routines and the things that bring them happiness. This person-centred approach helps residents retain their individuality while receiving the additional support they need.

Families regularly describe staff as friendly, thoughtful, professional and exceptionally kind. Just as importantly, reviews talk about residents feeling safe, comfortable and settled, with relatives reassured by the attention and understanding shown to the people they love.

Residential, dementia and respite care

Support available at Mortain Place includes:

• Residential care for older people who would benefit from additional everyday support
• Dedicated dementia care within the home's Memory Lane Community
• Respite and short stays, including periods of recovery following illness or a hospital stay
• Spacious en-suite bedrooms which can be personalised
• Freshly prepared meals tailored to residents' tastes and dietary needs
• Activities, entertainment, outings and opportunities to socialise
• Comfortable indoor and outdoor spaces designed to support independence

The Memory Lane Community includes features specifically intended to help people living with dementia remain engaged with familiar everyday experiences, while care is shaped around each resident's individual needs.

A warm welcome for the whole family

One of the strongest themes running through Mortain Place's reviews is the atmosphere.

Families describe a home-from-home feeling, warmth and genuine affection, alongside staff who make visitors feel welcome and supported too. Several reviewers also talk about relatives settling successfully following respite stays, hospital discharge or the move into permanent care.

That combination of professional care and personal warmth can make a difficult family decision feel considerably more reassuring.
