We’re a small, 25 year family run residential home for older people, in the seaside town of Minehead

On these dark and dreary mornings we all need that little bit more motivation. Krys certainly gave his all this morning!

As the nights draw in , our thoughts naturally turn to familiar comfort foods. The most popular choice tonight was …. Prawn Cocktail. A real blast from the past ! What’s your favourite teatime choice ?

After a fun afternoon of washing, peeling, and carefully slicing fruit picked from our own tree the kitchen was filled with the irresistible, comforting aroma of freshly baked apple crumble! 🥧✨

We are buzzing with creativity! 🐝✨
Our residents had a wonderful time crafting these adorable handmade bees during our recent activity session. But they aren't resting inside—we’ve officially "planted" them out in our flower beds where they can keep our garden looking bright and lively all season long! 🌸🌿
What busy bees they truly are, bringing so much joy and color to our outdoor spaces.

There’s just something about living by the coast that feeds the soul! 🌊☀️ Strolls along the promenade and stopping by the RNLI station to support our local heroes, to grabbing that essential seaside ice cream—today was perfect. We even ended up in an impromptu sing-along! 🍦🎶
Living by the sea means every day is an adventure. How are you spending your day?

Lemonade and Lattes the order of the day 🧋🥤

It’s the little moments that mean the most. ✨
While we love our busy activity schedule, the real magic happens in the quiet pauses. Taking an extra few minutes to share a smile, a laugh, and a meaningful chat is what truly makes our house a home.
Sometimes the best part of the day is simply being present with one another.

Whilst the temperatures soar outside we are keeping as cool as we can. Mocktail hour was popular! Strawberry fizz was our unanimous favourite. 🍹🍹

As we age, the body’s ability to regulate its internal temperature decreases, and the thirst mechanism may become less sensitive, making older adults significantly more vulnerable to heat-related illnesses.

Keeping the heat at bay here with cool foot soaks and hydrating snacks and fluids, this seems to be going down well 😁☀️
