Our large dining room has adaptations available for those with specific needs and we are able to cater for residents who have specific, specialist dietary requirements. The dining room has fantastic sea views and our in-house chefs provide lovely home cooked meals. Some residents choose to eat in their own rooms or in the CasBAR, our bistro area with outside decking to enjoy Eastbourne’s high levels of sunshine.
Many of our residents take themselves to some of the local tourist attractions as well as go out with staff to the other venues for the theatre or music events. Our Activities Team offer a wide range of things to do over the week some new and some to try such as Arts or Ceramics in our crafts centre, Flower arranging, gardening, quizzes, relaxation group, seat based yoga and a visit from Therapy Animals to name but a few.
