The DurhamGate

In an exciting development update, The DurhamGate Care Home, a second home for Adore Care Homes which is set to open in November, has reached a significant milestone in its construction journey. The care home, situated in the heart of the prestigious DurhamGate development in County Durham, is designed to provide luxury care and comfort for the elderly, with an emphasis on Health, Happiness, Vitality and Wellbeing.

Luxury Living and Comprehensive Care

The care home’s construction is a pivotal part of the larger DurhamGate scheme, masterminded by Arlington, a prominent developer known for their commitment to creating vibrant and integrated communities. This collaboration aims to create a space where senior residents can enjoy a peaceful and supportive environment while benefiting from a broader community that fosters a sense of belonging.

Maria Booth, the Quality Care Director for Adore Care Homes, expressed her enthusiasm for the project’s progress. “We’re dedicated to setting new standards in elderly care, ensuring that residents receive the utmost attention, respect, and assistance they deserve.”

Luxurious Amenities and Comforting Spaces

Karen Johnson, the General Manager of The DurhamGate Care Home, shared insights into the design and facilities the care home will offer. “We’ve taken a person-centered approach to the design of the care home. With an emphasis on luxury living, our residents will be cherished and well-cared for in fabulous surroundings. We provide nutritious balanced home-cooked meals, a personalised activities programme, including movie nights in our cinema and then there’s always time for cake and a chat in our tea room”.

Amenities that Enhance Quality of Life

 The DurhamGate Care Home will feature 66 bedroom suites, with full en suite shower rooms in each, providing residents with comforting and private personal space. The range of amenities is impressive, including a cinema, library, beautifully landscaped gardens, a bar, tea room, garden room, and even a beauty salon. Our En-suite rooms offer a comforting personal space while our airy and spacious communal areas allow our community to come together to enjoy an all-inclusive living.

Anticipating a Bright Future

As the construction of The DurhamGate Care Home continues, anticipation builds for the final result – a modern and purposefully designed facility that will provide exceptional care and support for the elderly residents. The collaborative efforts of Adore Care Homes and Arlington are set to make a positive impact on the lives of both the care home residents and the larger DurhamGate community.

Adore Care is thrilled to herald the opening of a brand-new care home in County Durham, opening in Autumn 2023. As with our Leeds care home, Weavers Court, Adore Care is committed to delivering the highest standard of care and support against a backdrop of luxury living in our new home. The DurhamGate offers residential, dementia and respite care.

 The Local Area

Spennymoor is a small County Durham town that sits high on a valley overlooking the River Wear below. Within easy reach of both Durham and Bishop Auckland, Spennymore is a convenient location for Adore Care’s second home.

Spennymore has changed dramatically from its time as a coal mining town and is now home to a car-free shopping area and a beautiful town park with fabulous seasonal floral displays.

Our Home

The new care home is purpose built, which ensures that our property caters to the needs of our residents, with step-free access and wide corridors. Developed and built with care by LNT Care Developers, you can count on attention to detail and a high-end finish that creates the perfect living environment.

The home will have 66 luxury en-suite rooms and everything we do will be dedicated to looking after our residents and making sure that they’re happy. Our comfortable and cosy bedrooms can be finished with personal touches from home, like a favourite armchair or a reading lamp that’s lit up many a good book.

We know that our residents benefit from a breath of fresh air and so we ensure that our gardens offer something to delight whatever the season. We take good care of our gardens and create focal points of interest that residents can enjoy on a warm day in the garden or on a frosty morning from within.

Spending Time

As with Weavers Court, life can be as full or as restful as each individual resident wants it to be. Our activities programme includes arts and crafts, baking and days out. Our facilities will provide the perfect way to spend your days, from the in-home cinema or the tranquillity of the library to pre-dinner drinks at our bar or a quick trip to our salon.

Care and Attention

Our care is tailored to our residents needs in every Adore Care home and this will certainly be the case at our brand new care home. Personalised care plans are delivered by our skilled team of compassionate staff who will also take the time to connect with our residents and ensure they are content.
