About Wendover Manor

Wendover Manor is a beautiful new residential care home for the elderly, opening in January 2027 on the edge of the charming old market town of Wendover. Family owned and operated, we have created a warm and welcoming home where residents can enjoy the comfort, independence and reassurance of personalised care, surrounded by beautiful spaces and a wonderful community.

Our wellness philosophy supports each resident to live as independently as possible, with care tailored around their needs, preferences and aspirations. Whether it’s discovering a new hobby, achieving a personal goal, spending time with family and friends or simply enjoying the everyday moments that make life special, our team is here to provide encouragement, companionship and care whenever it’s needed.

Wendover Manor is a new home, but our values remain the same: creating a place where people feel safe, understood and like they belong.

Your Own Space, Your Own Pace

55 Bedrooms, including 2 Premium Suites

Every bedroom has been thoughtfully designed to feel comfortable, practical and personal, with a high-quality en-suite and plenty of storage. Some ground-floor bedrooms have private patios, creating an easy connection between personal space and the outdoors. Bedrooms on the upper floors enjoy views towards the Chiltern Hills, Wendover Woods and Coombe Hill, offering a beautiful outlook across the surrounding landscape. Our spacious apartment suites offer extra room for those who value independence and privacy, with the reassurance of care close by. With their own living space and kitchenette, they are ideal for anyone who enjoys a little more space of their own.

Room to Wander

Nature is an important part of our wellness philosophy. Wendover Manor’s landscaped grounds offer plenty of ways to enjoy the outdoors, from our woodland walk, lawns and biodiverse wildflower areas, to the courtyard garden, first floor balcony and second floor terrace. The indoor potting shed on our second floor also provides opportunities to connect with nature throughout the year.

Spacious Communal Areas

Large communal lounge and dining areas across each floor, as well as a variety of smaller seating areas where residents can relax, socialise or simply watch the world go by. There is also a quiet room on the second floor for those seeking somewhere tranquil.

Wellness, Your Way

Whether it's a quiet read, gentle exercise in our gym, a pampering spa or hair treatment, getting creative in our studio, or watching a film in our cinema room, our wellness spaces support a variety of interests and hobbies.

Our Wellness Philosophy

We believe wellness is an important part of living a fulfilling life, at every age. It shapes everything we do, from the care we provide to the environment we create, helping residents to stay active, connected and engaged in the things that matter to them. Our dedicated Wellness Team provides a varied programme of activities and experiences, shaped around residents’ interests and abilities. The aim is simple: to create opportunities for stimulation, achievement, fulfilment and belonging.

Physical Wellness Plans

Every resident has a personalised wellness plan, identifying what they would like to achieve and how we can support them to work towards their goals. Whether that’s maintaining independence, improving strength and balance, building confidence or simply moving more, the plan is shaped around the individual. We offer group exercise every day and keep sessions varied and enjoyable, finding different ways to move our bodies through activities such as chair yoga, dance, strength and balance exercises and outdoor walks. Our physiotherapist also works individually with residents, tailoring exercises to their personal goals and supporting their mobility, strength and confidence.

Creativity

Creativity provides an opportunity for self-expression, enjoyment and connection. Our creative studio will provide space for residents to explore activities such as painting, pottery, music and other creative pursuits. Whether trying something new or returning to a much-loved hobby, creative activities can be enjoyed individually or together, at each resident’s own pace.

Intergenerational Connections

Spending time with children and younger people can have a really positive effect on older people, bringing energy, fun and a different dynamic to the home. We want Wendover Manor to be genuinely child-friendly, with spaces where children feel welcome and families can relax, stay longer and enjoy their visits together. We have a well-established relationship with a local nursery, whose children visit every week, as well as links with local schools. With our creative studio, gardens and children’s play area, we hope these relationships will become an even bigger part of life at Wendover Manor.

Meaningful Connections

Relationships and a sense of belonging are an important part of wellbeing. We want to make it easy for family and friends to visit and spend time together, whether that’s meeting for coffee, having lunch, enjoying a drink or simply sitting down for a catch-up. We also organise a varied programme of activities and clubs, giving residents plenty of chances to socialise and get to know one another. Life shouldn’t stop at the front door either. We arrange regular trips and outings and make good use of local cafés, shops, outdoor spaces, events and other places residents enjoy visiting.

Nature & Outdoors

Being outdoors can be an important part of everyday wellbeing. Wendover Manor is surrounded by landscaped gardens, with a courtyard garden and an accessible woodland walk running through the grounds. The indoor potting shed and open terrace on our second floor also provide opportunities to connect with nature throughout the year.

Looking After You

Self-care is an important part of feeling well, too. Whether it’s getting your hair and nails done, enjoying a treatment or simply taking a little time for yourself, we believe those things matter. Our hair salon and treatment room make self-care an everyday part of life, while our accessible spa baths offer the chance to enjoy a relaxing soak in comfort, rather than bathing simply being part of a routine.

Cognitive Stimulation

Keeping our minds active is an important part of staying well. Residents can take part in brain teasers, storytelling, armchair travel, music, reminiscence and meditation, as well as following their own interests and learning something new. Our cinema also gives residents the chance to enjoy films together, revisit old favourites and spend time with others.

Dining & Nutrition

We believe food should be something to look forward to. It should bring enjoyment, comfort and connection, while giving our bodies the nourishment they need to feel their best.

Good food, enjoyed together

Good nutrition supports our energy, strength, mood, cognitive function and overall health, so it plays an important part in our approach to wellness. But eating well doesn’t have to feel clinical. We want plates full of colour, fresh ingredients and plenty of flavour, with food that looks as good as it tastes. Our chefs create varied, nutritious menus while getting to know the people they’re cooking for, from favourite dishes and lifelong preferences, to the things they simply don’t like. We cater for individual dietary and clinical needs, but never lose sight of the fact that food should be enjoyed. Residents have a say in what they eat, and we enjoy adapting menus around individual tastes and preferences. That might mean a traditional roast, a favourite family recipe or trying something completely different. Special requests are always welcome, with any additional costs agreed beforehand.

More than a meal

Meals are also about more than what’s on the plate. They’re a chance to sit down, talk, laugh and enjoy time together, because sharing good food with good company is one of life’s simple pleasures. Our dining rooms offer a relaxed, sociable setting, while the café and bar with its patio, and private dining room provide different ways to enjoy food with friends and family.

Care Services at Wendover Manor

At the heart of our approach is personalised care, delivered with kindness. We take the time to get to know each resident – their needs, preferences, routines and interests – so that the support we provide feels right for them.

Chelle Daly

Commissioning Home Manager

I have been a nurse for over 33 years, with experience across many areas of care, including 12 years in the prison service and 14 years managing care homes. I’m passionate about people, great care and high standards, with a particular interest in dementia and end of life care. I believe everyone deserves dignity, kindness and respect, and that person-centred care starts with understanding what matters most to each individual. I’m also passionate about leadership and teamwork, believing that when staff feel valued and supported, they can provide their very best care. In 2025, I completed my Master’s in Healthcare and Clinical Leadership. Outside work, I love spending time with my Golden Retriever, Winnie, who is also a therapy dog.

Abi Smith

Care Relations Manager

I have over 12 years in Health & Social Care, supporting adults with elderly care, mental health, and addiction needs. Care is my passion, and I treat every resident like family. I worked at Salveo Care in 2019 and returned in 2022 to join Operations, supporting managers and improving care quality. In my free time, I enjoy family, friends, walking my dog, and exploring new places.

Part of the Wendover Community

Wendover Manor sits at the edge of the town, within walking distance of the centre and its local amenities. Next door, Blue Diamond Garden Centre provides another familiar place to visit, with its café and shops. Our residents are already part of the local community, and we want that to continue. We enjoy getting out and about for café trips, market visits and other local outings, as well as making the most of what Wendover and the surrounding area have to offer. We also have established connections with local healthcare and health-related providers, businesses and community organisations. These relationships are an important part of our local roots, and we look forward to building on them as Wendover Manor becomes part of the town.
