About Us

Who we are

Holmleigh is a high-quality care home with deceptively modern facilities. It is in a rural location just outside Navenby with glorious far-reaching views of surrounding countryside from many of the well-appointed rooms, all being en-suite.

Originally a substantial detached property in a large garden, it has been considerably extended with three single storey wings. There are several lounges, two spacious dining rooms and a lift to the upper floor in the main house.

The home is maintained to a high standard inside and out, with all the facilities one would expect for comfortable and relaxing elderly living.

From the moment you step into Holmleigh you can feel the friendly and homely atmosphere. We aim to provide the finest quality of care and understanding for our residents. The staff go out of their way to provide the support that residents need to help them live a fulfilled and active life according to their individual needs. We cater for those from all walks of life and are passionate about what we do.

​Our home manager and her team, have been running Holmleigh for almost 20 years now; they made the home into what it is today - the best choice of care in the area with a genuine family feel.

Life at Holmleigh is never dull. We have a wide range of organised activities (see separate page) to keep minds and bodies active! All residents are encouraged to personalise their own room to make it just like their home. When you enter a room at Holmleigh you enter a part of their lives so positive memories can be maintained.
