Our Bedrooms

We offer tastefully styled ensuite single and double rooms, which can be used as deluxe singles if required and cater for up to 49 residents, ensuring a close-knit and supportive community.

Many of our lounges and common rooms overlook the picturesque lakes, providing a serene and calming environment.

We encourage residents to personalise their rooms with photographs, ornaments, and pieces of furniture, space permitting, as long as they meet health and safety regulations. This helps create a homely and familiar atmosphere. Family and friends are welcome to visit at any time, and with prior notice, they may join our residents for meals.

Activities & Entertainment Programme

At Lakeside Watermead, we believe a vibrant social life is essential for the well-being of our residents, and we offer a range of stimulating activities both inside and outside the home to keep everyone engaged and fulfilled.

Hairdressers On-Site

Pamper yourself with regular hairdressing services available on-site. Having hairdressers on-site offers numerous benefits for our residents. The convenience of professional hair care without needing to leave the comfort of our home is invaluable, especially for those with mobility issues. Regular grooming helps maintain personal hygiene and appearance, boosting self-esteem and confidence.

Visits to the hairdresser also provide an opportunity for social interaction, offering a chance to chat and connect with others, which is particularly valuable for residents who may feel isolated. Our hairdressers are familiar with each resident’s preferences, ensuring personalised and attentive service tailored to individual needs.

Moreover, having an on-site hairdresser makes it easy for residents to look and feel their best for special events, family visits, and community activities.
