Welcome to Sotwell Hill House

Sotwell Hill House is a late Victorian country house which has been sympathetically restored and enlarged over the last twenty years by its present owners. Set in almost twenty acres of landscaped parklands, the well appointed house now provides a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere for elderly people who require twenty four hour care without nursing. It is ideal for those wishing to spend their retirement years in comfort and security without the loneliness and stress associated with living alone.

An independent overview of the care home's "Environment" can be borrowed from the annual inspection report recently prepared and signed by the Lead Inspector for the Commission for Social Care Inspection, Oxfordshire.

"Sotwell Hill House is a late Victorian country house, which has been extended over the years, and service users spoken to during the inspection were more than happy with their accommodation.

Those areas that were seen were clean, tidy and odour free. Cleaning was underway at the time of inspection and it was evident that staff take considerable pride in the appearance of the home, which is commendable.

The home is well decorated and the environment comfortable. Corridors are fitted with handrails and ramps to enable service users to have easy and safe movement around the home. There is also a lift which accommodations six people.

The extension, providing eight extra bedrooms and an assisted bathroom, is nearing completion. All eight bedrooms have en-suite facilities and are spacious.

A new call system has been installed which allows the management team to monitor the calls and to monitor the swiftness of staff responding.

The home is set in exceptionally large grounds, which are well maintained."
