Life at Mount Olivet

At Mount Olivet, rooms are available in various styles, shapes and sizes, so you can choose something that is precisely in line with your tastes and budget. All rooms are spacious with a light and airy feel, and many have sweeping views across the bay or sliding patio windows leading directly onto the garden. Whichever they choose, your loved one’s room will be tastefully decorated and well equipped with everything they need for daily life.

Mount Olivet will be their home, so we’d love them to bring their own ornaments, treasured mementoes and small furniture items to make their room feel comfortable and familiar. If they like, we’ll even decorate it in line with their taste to truly make it feel like home.

If your loved one likes getting involved, there are many activities, visiting entertainers, games, parties and trips for them to enjoy. If they like a little pampering and treats (and who doesn’t?!), we have regular visits from the professional hair stylist, and all manner of masseurs, aroma therapists and beauticians can be arranged on request for that extra special something.

For those who prefer to exercise their mind, we have lots of reading material and many areas where you can settle down to read a good book or your daily paper.

For the more adventurous we have internet access. We recently introduced tablet computers which have proved a big hit with many residents discovering new skills and a whole new world of possibilities online. They even use the tablets to do Skype video calls with families when they can’t get in to visit personally. So it’ll always be easy for you to keep in touch whenever you want to.

Definitely, if you like tasty, home-cooked cuisine.

Our head chef and his team prepare a variety of delicious and nutritious meals that will have your loved one eagerly anticipating every meal. Ingredients are locally sourced, freshly prepared daily, and served in our spacious, airy dining room. This room is the hub of the home, and everyone looks forward to both the food and the chance to have a natter and a catch-up with friends and staff members.

If your loved one has special dietary requirements, we can accommodate these, and there are always alternatives if they don’t like something on the day’s menu. Similarly, although we take great care to ensure everything is fresh, your loved one can have whatever they want, so don’t worry about that craving for Angel Delight or Heinz Cream of Tomato soup – it’s no problem!

And since Mount Olivet continues to maintain its long-held 5 Star food hygiene rating, you can also rest assured that all the food is prepared in the safest, most hygienic environment.

After viewing our website, we hope you’ll feel that Mount Olivet looks like the sort of home your loved one would like to live in. However, there’s no substitute for actually experiencing the atmosphere in the home and talking directly to the staff and residents yourself.

So we’d like to invite you on a personal guided tour to really get to know the home. We’ll take you for a good look around, and afterwards, you can talk to whomever you please and wander around yourself as much as you like.

We want you to be absolutely sure this is the right home for you, so you’re also more than welcome to join us for a day to meet everyone, get involved and see what life is like first-hand. Or you can simply join us for lunch and one of the many entertainment sessions if a whole day is not convenient.

To arrange your personal guided tour, please call us on 01803 522148 or click here to email us. The kettle’s always on, and we’d love to meet you!
