The home offers inviting communal spaces, including a large activity room, a lounge with a cinema screen and surround sound, and a modern kitchen/diner. The well-maintained garden, backing onto a field, provides a peaceful outdoor area for activities.
Located in the charming village of Hordle, Little Orchard is just a few miles from the New Forest and the coast, with easy access to nearby towns like New Milton. The home also has an adapted vehicle for convenient transportation.
The spacious garden is ideal for BBQs, family gatherings, and sensory activities, while the living room’s cinema-like experience, complete with a projector and glowing bubble tube, adds to the cozy atmosphere.
In 2023, Little Orchard received significant upgrades, including a state-of-the-art kitchen and a new adaptive bath in the communal bathroom. A display area in the corridor showcases the achievements and special moments of those we support, regularly updated to reflect their progress.
With excellent connections to Bournemouth, New Milton, Lymington, and Southampton, Little Orchard provides easy access to a variety of amenities and attractions.
We’re not just participants. We’re planners, presenters, and leaders.
