About Us

We at Green Gables Nursing Home warmly welcome you to our nursing home nestled in the peaceful surroundings of Hindhead, Hampshire. As a dedicated provider of nursing and dementia care in the South East, we understand how important it is to find a place that feels like home for your loved one.

Our home is set within the tranquil GU postcode area of Hindhead, a location long cherished for its natural beauty and calm village atmosphere. This gentle, restorative setting offers residents the reassurance of a quieter pace of life whilst remaining well connected to the wider Hampshire community. Families visiting will find the surroundings both welcoming and easy to reach, making regular visits a pleasure rather than a chore.

At the heart of what we do is compassionate, person centred nursing care for older people, delivered by a team who take the time to understand each resident as an individual. Our specialisms extend across dementia care, physical disability, and support for those with visual or hearing impairment. We also care for younger adults whose needs may not be met in more traditional settings, and we offer respite care for families who need short term support, whether that is following a hospital stay, during a carer's holiday, or simply to allow a loved one a change of scene.

For families exploring dementia care, we know how emotionally difficult this journey can be. Our approach focuses on preserving dignity, encouraging familiar routines, and creating an environment where residents feel safe, valued, and understood. For those requiring nursing support, our team provides clinical care around the clock, ensuring that complex health needs are met with skill and sensitivity. Residents with sensory impairments are supported with patience and thoughtful adjustments to daily life, whilst those with physical disabilities receive care that promotes as much independence as possible.

We believe good care is about more than meeting physical needs. It is about kindness, conversation, laughter, and the small moments that make each day meaningful. Whether that is a favourite meal, a familiar piece of music, or a quiet chat over a cup of tea, our team strives to bring warmth and humanity into every interaction.

In relation to our most recent Care Quality Commission inspection, our overall rating is Requires Improvement. We want to be open and transparent about this. The CQC recognised our home as Good in the areas of Effective, Caring, and Responsive care, which reflects the compassion of our team and the meaningful outcomes we work hard to achieve for residents. The areas identified as Requires Improvement, Safe and Well led, are ones we take seriously, and we are committed to ongoing development so that every aspect of life at our home meets the standard our residents and families rightly expect. We welcome open conversations with prospective families about the steps we are taking.

Choosing a care home is one of the most significant decisions a family can make, and we do not take lightly the trust placed in us. If you are considering nursing or dementia care for a loved one in Hindhead or the wider Hampshire area, we would be delighted to welcome you for a visit, answer your questions honestly, and help you feel confident about the road ahead. Please do get in touch when you are ready, and let us show you what life at Green Gables Nursing Home can offer.
