The Home

Within the village there is a shop with a post office, 2 pubs and a restaurant which are close by and a bus service offers routes to Canterbury city centre and the coast.

Littlebourne House has ample communal space for residents' comfort. Purpose built passenger lifts allow our residents more independence.

The beautiful large traditional garden is the focal point of the Home which is utilized by the residents and families daily.

This leads down to the river where there is an abundance of wildlife including ducks, moorhens and an assortment of birds including kingfishers. We also have a summerhouse in the garden that can be used all year round. Residents can enjoy gardening in our greenhouse and help to plant the raised beds.

Bedrooms

Most of our bedrooms are single but we do have double rooms reserved for couples who wish to share. All the rooms are spacious and light with interesting outlooks. All are en-suite and tastefully decorated and come with television and telephone points. All bedrooms are furnished unless otherwise requested by the resident. And we provide profiling beds when needed. Some have their own conservatories or balconies and we do encourage residents to personalise their own rooms.

Conservatory

The extremely spacious conservatory serves as a perfectly relaxing place to view the garden, socialise, watch the large screen television, or dine. Residents are invited to dine with the others or in their own rooms.

Apartments

We have 4 self-contained apartments consisting of en-suite bedroom, kitchen and lounge diner. The ground floor apartments also benefit from their own patio area. These apartments are in the grounds of the home, so have the advantage of all the services and security that we provide.

Laundry and Cleaning

Littlebourne House has its own laundry service collecting and delivering clothes back to the individual resident. Our Housekeeper ensures that all garments are cared for and hand washed if necessary. Family members are welcome to take home washing if they so wish but we do insist that all garments are clearly labelled with the relevant residents name.
