Welcome to our house

Welcome to Abbeyfield House, our Grade II listed building is a home from home for people looking to retain their independence but remain part of an active and social community.

Our home is made up of nine en-suite bedrooms which were renovated in 2013. The house also has a large communal kitchen and dining room, lounge and garden.

All bedrooms come unfurnished allowing residents to add their own personal touch with favourite items of furniture. Residents are welcome to decorate their room to their own taste, be it with new curtains or carpet.

Our wonderful housekeeper Joan keeps Abbeyfield House running smoothly and takes care of residents’ well-being. Joan is on hand throughout the day to assist resident and is also available during evenings for emergencies as she lives within the house too. Having worked at Abbeyfield House for 12 years and with Abbeyfield for years before that, Joan is well-versed with all things Abbeyfield. As one resident said, “Jean is everyone’s mum.”

As a home we are active within the local community, often connecting with local groups and other Abbeyfield Houses for events and activities. Each Thursday is Volunteers Day at Abbeyfield House, we are very lucky to have volunteers come in to cook and converse with our residents - it’s a day we all look forward to.

This house is managed by the Abbeyfield Southern Oaks Society.

What's happening at Abbeyfield House

Entertainment all year round

Here are just a few of our favourite events that we’ve recently organised:

• Boat trip down the Thames.
• Educational visit to Bletchley Park.
• Afternoon Tea at Grumpy Mole.
• Scrabble club on Wednesday evenings.

We also enjoy monthly coffee mornings with freshly baked cakes, and hold a church service each month with hymns played on the piano.

Resident led activities

Our favourite trip is our visit to the local pub every three months for a pint of ale and brandy. As well as all of this our residents manage their own kitty and put the money collected towards different trips. They are totally in charge of where we go – it’s ran for and by our residents.

Resident testimonials

I moved to Abbeyfield House to be closer to my daughter. She said ‘we need to keep you close dad, you never know what trouble you might get up to if you’re too far away’ – we did laugh. I’m pleased I did move though, I very much enjoy my life here, it’s everything I could have hoped for.
Gordon, resident at Abbeyfield House
