Grasmere
Residential Care Home for the Elderly
Caring for a loved one can be immensely rewarding but it can also be very tiring on the family. At Southcare Homes we provide short stays of a few days or longer, enough time to provide a short respite for a carer to “recharge the batteries”.
We offer 24-hour care for all residents. A unique personal care plan is prepared for each resident and it is reviewed regularly. All information, data and records relating to residents remains confidential and is protected. Visits to the dentist, optician and physiotherapist are arranged when required.
Palliative care, or end of life care, is care where a recovery from illness is not expected. At Southcare Homes we understand how upsetting this final stage of life can be for everyone. We offer compassionate and sensitive care.

We are currently under lockdown, but please get in touch with us and book a virtual tour of our home.
As of Friday 16th October, the South West London Borough of Sutton was placed on Tier Two restrictions by the government. Our visiting policy has thus been limited to exceptional circumstances only such as end of life. If you have any concerns or would like to talk about how this affects you, please contact the Manager.
We are proud of our recent COVID-19 Assessment Report from CQC, acknowledging our “good use of technology to enable people to maintain contact with their families” and recognising the hard work and effort we put in each day to keep our residents safe and healthy.
A homely place with plenty of flair.
Our stylish and cosy care home in Sutton provides respite care and long-term residential and palliative care for up to 23 elderly people. We have a range of services, facilities and accommodation types that contribute to the warm and inviting atmosphere of our home.
You're as young as you feel at Grasmere.
There’s always plenty going on at Grasmere and we encourage our residents to remain as independent as possible and enjoy life to the full. Whether it’s ballet lessons, fun fair days, jazz evenings, karaoke, trips to the coast, or pottering in our lovely garden – there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
The majority of our rooms have en-suite facilities. In every room there is the option to personalise your space and have your own decor and furniture. Rooms are across two floors, with a passenger lift. We also extended the building recently and have many ground floor rooms with access to the garden and patio area via french doors.
Grasmere has two lounge areas where residents can socialise, enjoy activities and entertainment and relax. Guests are always welcome to spend time with their relatives here.
Join us and tuck into a range of nutritious meals and various menu options to suit everyone’s tastes. Our in-house chefs cook fresh, home-cooked meals with the menu changing weekly.
Unwind to the sound of birdsong in our little suntrap of a garden, with a beautifully maintained lawn and flower area. The large patio area is a great place for all our summer BBQs.
All of our friendly care teams are on hand ready to help out our residents with any need they have.
Our care plans are individually created to meet the needs of all of our individuals and their families.
Not a morning person? That’s fine with us. Residents can decide for themselves when they want to get up, go to bed and eat their evening meals.
We have varying daily dishes catering to everyone’s tastes and all personally prepared by our in-house chefs.

Hello, I'm Antonina
Antonina Gont
Care Home Manager
Grasmere Rest Home
I started working in the care sector as a temporary care assistant in a nursing home in Ashtead. I fell in love with the work and the residents and remained there for three and a half years. I am a very organised person, and value honesty and punctuality. I like to treat everyone the way I would like to be treated. I would like to think that I am making a difference in people’s lives, trying my best to give them the best years of their life, while keeping them safe. Grasmere has such a warm atmosphere that really turns the building into a loving home for all of us.
Southcare Homes Group is more than a business, it is a family that continues to improve. I hope to do this at Grasmere, not just by maintaining our Outstanding CQC rating for ‘Caring’, but also working to improve the other four key lines of enquiry. I hope I will manage to do that as soon as possible to ensure that we have the recognition for the services that we offer.
Awarded OUTSTANDING in 'Caring'
In our most recent CQC report (published August 2019), we were awarding Outstanding in the ‘Caring’ section of the report. We are so proud of our achivements and are striving to attain an overall Outstanding grade by our next inspection.
