HBH Senior Living

For those who need a little more assistance with daily living, HBH Senior Living offers a dedicated, 32-bed rest home. Meals, activities and personal care are provided and you can rest assured that a highly trained nurse is in charge at all times.

CARE PHILOSOPHY
Living life to the full, as independently as possible, with support and medical care at hand 24/7.

LIVING SPACE
Rooms are larger than most (17 metres square with a full ensuite), so there is plenty of space to bring the things you treasure. All rooms have a built-in wardrobe, vanity and storage and are pre-wired for Sky, phone and Internet. And best of all, every room opens onto a deck or patio.
There are also three communal lounges (with Wifi available), as well as a large dining room and activities space.
