Our Home

Extended from a fine Georgian home, Whitecliffe House stands comfortably amongst the fine, traditional buildings of Blandford Forum, a quintessential English market town at the crossroads of ancient Dorset roads. Offering residential and nursing care, Whitecliffe takes its place unassumingly and easily as part of this prosperous and close-knit community, regularly welcoming other townsfolk to join the residents into its warm and sociable life.

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.

Here at Whitecliffe House, not only are we supporting all of the central initiatives, but we are also working closely with residents and relatives to seek other ways our home can reduce our consumption of plastic. If you have any ideas or suggestions which could help us in our plastic-free drive, please do get in touch.
