Welcome to Abney Court

Abney Court in Cheadle is set within the beautiful grounds of Abney Hall Park and offers residential, dementia and short-term care in comfortable surroundings.

The home is designed to provide the very best standards of care, with its own luxury facilities including a cinema, café and hair salon, as well as stunning walled gardens. We also have our own minibus so we can enjoy regular days out to nearby attractions or further afield.

When you join us, we will work with you and your family to learn everything we can about your life history, needs, likes and dislikes. Then we’ll design care and activity plans tailored to your unique needs and preferences. We’re known for our talented chefs, and they’ll work with you to create bespoke menus.

Abney Court is officially a ‘Veteran Friendly Framework’ accredited care home, recognising our best practice and highest standards of care for the Armed Forces community.

We pride ourselves on the transparency of our care quality and fee information - ensuring you can trust us to care from that very first step.

It always appears calm whenever I visit and it's always clean and tidy with lovely flower arrangements. The staff are lovely… they always come over for a chat and they have a good laugh with my loved one, which makes all the difference to him.
