Our Home

Abbey View is a fine and friendly home, located in the beautiful country town of Sherborne. Although a single building purpose built for residential and nursing care, the home resembles a row of cottages and blends discreetly into this ancient setting. It is a family-oriented home at ease with itself, and closely integrated with the welcoming and relaxed town community. 

The home is part of Colten Care, an independent and family-run company determined to set the highest standards in all aspects of care for the elderly. With our simple, all-inclusive pricing structure, there are no hidden extras or non-refundable deposits.

Our Garden

We pride ourselves on our beautiful and stimulating gardens. We recognise that many of our residents had such gardens themselves, and that gardening may have been a special pastime for them. We like to think that we can offer residents the opportunity to continue that pastime in whatever way they feel appropriate.

Caring Without Plastic

Colten Care has become the first major provider in the UK's private care home sector to begin a group-wide reduction of single-use plastic. This is a significant move given the care sector's traditionally high use of plastic in clinical services, person-centred care and infection control.
