About Us

We at Shawford Springs Care Home are proud to offer a warm and welcoming residential care home in Winchester, providing specialist support for older people, younger adults, and those living with dementia. Nestled within the historic county of Hampshire, our home has been thoughtfully designed to feel like a true home from the moment you step through our doors.

Set within the peaceful SO postcode area of Winchester, our home benefits from the gentle rhythm of this beautiful cathedral city whilst offering residents a calm and settled environment in which to thrive. The surrounding area, with its blend of countryside charm and rich heritage, provides a wonderful backdrop for our residents, their loved ones, and the wider community we are pleased to be part of. Inside, we have created spaces that feel comfortable, familiar, and safe, where residents can relax, socialise, or enjoy quieter moments as they wish.

Our care spans a broad range of needs, and we take great pride in tailoring our support to each individual who joins us. For older people, we provide compassionate residential care that upholds dignity, independence, and choice at every stage. For those living with dementia, our team offers patient, understanding support that focuses on reassurance, routine, and meaningful connection, helping residents to feel secure whilst continuing to enjoy the things that bring them comfort and joy. We also welcome younger adults who require residential care, ensuring their individual needs, interests, and aspirations are fully respected within a supportive community setting.

We understand that caring for a loved one can sometimes feel overwhelming, and that families occasionally need a helping hand. Our respite care option provides a warm and welcoming stay for those needing short term support, whether following a hospital discharge, during a family holiday, or simply to give a regular carer a well earned break. Every respite guest is treated with the same care, warmth, and attention as our permanent residents, and many families find that a short stay offers valuable peace of mind and a chance to recharge.

Quality and safety sit at the heart of everything we do. Following our most recent CQC inspection in August 2025, Shawford Springs Care Home was rated Good overall, with a Good rating awarded across all five key areas: Safe, Effective, Caring, Responsive, and Well led. This consistent recognition reflects the dedication of our team and the standard of care our residents receive each and every day. For families, this rating offers reassurance that their loved one is in capable, compassionate hands, and that the home is well managed, responsive to individual needs, and committed to continuous improvement.

Choosing a care home is one of the most important decisions a family can make, and we want you to feel confident, informed, and supported throughout the journey. Whether you are exploring long term residential care for a parent, considering specialist dementia support, seeking a home that welcomes younger adults, or looking for a short respite stay, we would be delighted to hear from you. Please do get in touch to arrange a visit, ask any questions, or simply have a chat about how we can help. At Shawford Springs Care Home in Winchester, your loved one will always be treated as part of our extended family.
