Our beautiful internal courtyard garden sits at the heart of Ashlea Court, offering residents a safe, accessible, and tranquil space to enjoy the outdoors. Surrounded by raised flower beds, comfortable seating, and colourful planting, the courtyard provides the perfect setting for everything from a quiet morning cup of tea to an afternoon chat in the sunshine.
Our courtyard garden has been designed with residents in mind, offering a safe, enclosed space that’s easy to navigate and full of gentle charm. With raised planters, accessible pathways, and comfortable seating throughout, the space is ideal for spending time outdoors—whether gardening, socialising, or simply enjoying the fresh air and the changing seasons.
Residents are free to come and go as they please, and many find the garden to be a natural extension of their home. It’s used for a variety of moments—from relaxed one-to-one conversations to garden-based activities like planting, watering, or birdwatching. In the warmer months, the courtyard also becomes a lovely space for small gatherings and family visits.
We know how beneficial time in nature can be, particularly for emotional wellbeing, memory, and overall mood. The courtyard offers a peaceful space for residents to connect with the outdoors in a way that feels calm, familiar, and easy. For those living with dementia, the garden provides visual interest, soothing surroundings, and a comforting sense of routine—all while being fully enclosed and secure.
Whether it’s listening to the birds, tending to the flowers, or enjoying a light breeze on a sunny day, spending time in the garden brings a gentle rhythm to daily life and offers quiet moments of joy.
