Our Garden

Our unique garden next to the sea offers the opportunity for socialising, gardening or quiet contemplation. With its zigzag path leading to serval seating areas, you can find a space to relax amongst the perennials, roses and coastal planting.

A Tranquil Space To Be Among Nature

We have a wonderful gardening team that brings a wealth of expertise in designing and maintaining gardens that are both calming and revitalising, with plenty of visual and sensory interest.

Our residents love their gardens as tranquil, nurturing places in which to enjoy peace and quiet, meet friends or maintain those green fingers, as well as enjoying birds and other wildlife visitors to our homes, and staying in tune with the changing seasons.

Encouraging Residents To Take Ownership

Our gardens are not just for looking at. At Colten Care, we believe in empowering residents to take ownership of their garden, just as they may have done before moving into the home.

We employ our own gardeners who work closely with residents, encouraging them to get hands in the soil.

We understand the therapeutic power of being in nature, listening to the sounds of the birds, smelling the scent of the flowers, and enjoying the fruits of our labour.

 

“Gardens are not made by singing ‘Oh, how beautiful,’ and sitting in the shade.” – Rudyard Kipling

Inspired by the seasons, Gardening Club takes place with a variety of activities to suit the needs of residents and are lead by our homes gardener and companionship team.

Colten Village Produce Show

Each year our home takes part in the Colten Village Produce Show. The show is a wonderful opportunity for our residents to come together with our sister homes and get hands on in a year-round celebration of garden-inspired creativity.

With some friendly rivalry amongst the homes, the show focuses on gardening, horticulture and outdoor inspiration with range of categories for homes to enter, including; ‘A Tussy-Mussy’ (the arrangement of a posie of flowering annuals, herbs or perennials) and ‘Heave Ho!’ where residents and the homes try to grow the largest beetroot possible!
