Ashlea Court Care Home offers professional, compassionate care for people living with dementia and other complex care needs. Our dedicated dementia unit provides a secure and calming environment where every resident is known, respected, and supported through personalised care. With skilled staff, tailored activities, and a thoughtful approach to every detail, we aim to bring comfort and reassurance to both residents and their families.
Ashlea Court is located on the outskirts of Ashgill, a small and friendly village in South Lanarkshire, Scotland. Just 10 minutes from Larkhall and around 20 minutes from Hamilton, the home is situated in a quiet residential area with scenic countryside surroundings. The nearby towns offer essential amenities, while the peaceful location ensures a slower pace.
Being part of this close-knit village community means familiar faces, quiet lanes, and the natural calm of rural living. Families visiting from nearby towns or cities often appreciate the balance Ashlea Court Care Home offers, easy to reach, yet far enough from the bustle to truly feel like a retreat. The setting plays an important role in supporting our residents’ wellbeing, offering both comfort and calm as part of everyday life.
At Ashlea Court, we understand that dementia affects everyone differently. That’s why our care isn’t built around a checklist, it’s shaped by the person. Our team takes the time to learn about each resident’s habits, personality, and life story, using that insight to tailor every part of their care, from daily routines to communication styles and calming techniques.
Our specialist dementia care unit is secure, thoughtfully laid out, and designed to reduce confusion and anxiety. Every staff member receives specialised training in supporting people with memory loss, including how to manage changing behaviours, language difficulties, and distress. This ensures a consistently safe and stable environment, even for those living with advanced dementia.
Choosing residential care is never easy, especially when dementia is involved. If you’re unsure what type of care your parent or relative needs, our experienced team can help guide you through it. We’ll take time to understand the situation, explain your options clearly, and answer any questions with honesty and empathy.
You’re not expected to have all the answers. Whether you need short-term support, long-term residential dementia care, or just someone to talk things through with, we’re here to help you make the right decision with confidence and clarity.
