What to expect at Winton Suites

At Winton Suites, Northcare has created a warm and vibrant place to call home. Each beautifully designed suite offers the comfort and privacy of home, with stylish furnishings, modern en-suite facilities and thoughtful touches like newspaper deliveries to make everyday living as enjoyable as possible.

As well as the elegant private suites, it boasts beautiful communal spaces and first-class amenities, including a hair salon, brasserie and regular live entertainment.

Residents can enjoy freshly prepared meals, a varied programme of activities from arts and crafts to gentle exercise and outings, and plenty of opportunities to relax or socialise with family and friends.

Family-run firm ‘is building a community’

Families can be assured that Winton Suite’s state-of-the-art facilities and five-star accommodation doesn’t mean compromising in the least on care.

In fact, Craig says, the family-led nature of the firm and the quality of the care the team delivers are what drives it. Northcare was founded 30 years ago by Margaret Sawers, based on her vision that care should feel like family, and she now runs it alongside the next generation of her family, William and Katie.

Specialising in dementia, nursing, respite and residential care, Northcare’s experienced team provides support tailored to each individual's needs. And the grateful comments on review site carehome.co.uk are testament to the extra effort staff show every day to make residents feel at home.

“There have been so many positive experiences at Winton Suites so far and it is clear how much attention residents and their families receive,” says Craig. “We are proud of the community that we are forging and the friendships that are being formed there. It is really special for us and that is what we do it for.”

One son wrote of his parents: "Since moving into the Winton Suites they both have their sparkle back... it doesn't take away their respective illnesses, but the care in the Winton Suites has been outstanding."

Another reviewer posted: “I cannot praise Winton Suites enough. The staff are second to none – the amazing management team, the front of house staff, the nursing and care team, hospitality and cleaning and laundry staff. Every single one goes out of their way to make my mum and any visitors she has feel as if nothing is too much trouble."

Make time to plan ahead

Winton Suites has been thoughtfully designed to help older people live comfortably, confidently and with dignity. Planning care for a loved one can be one of the biggest decisions a relative will have to make, acknowledges Craig, but it can be a good idea to start thinking about it at an early stage.

“We would always encourage people to get ahead of the conversation,” he explains, adding that sometimes older people may have reached a crisis point by the time their families start considering care options.

“Whether you have an immediate need or you are just future planning, we would encourage people to have open conversations together and with us.”
