Blaenos House is situated in the heart of rural West Wales just outside the market town of Llandovery in Carmarthenshire with easy access to Brecon, Carmarthen and the surrounding areas. The home is convenient for many local facilities; shops, pubs, a library, a park/bowling green and bus and train routes.
The home is undergoing further refurbishment to improve the accommodation offered in our single bedrooms. Works are well underway to make it more Dementia friendly and to provide greater sensory stimulation for the residents living here. A conservatory has also been added with stunning views of the Brecon Beacons. We have a total of 38 beds, the home offers a range of assisted bathrooms and toilets, including a shower room. Outside we have a patio and garden where meals and drinks can be served and the building is accessible by ramps and a lift. Approximately two thirds of our residents are from the West Wales area where Welsh is the first language. Many of our staff also have Welsh as their first language. |
