Welcome to Oaken Holt Nursing and Residential Home Farmoor, Oxford, Oxfordshire
Oaken Holt Nursing and Residential Home is a Victorian mansion set on the 23-acre Oaken Holt Estate with The Coach House alongside and our sister home Wytham House also on the grounds in Farmoor. These three buildings offer residential care, assisted living and dementia care respectively. These complementary services offer the high-quality service associated with the Caring Homes experience, and no matter how and when your circumstances change, you won’t need to leave the place you’ve come to call home.
Our residents living in The Coach House enjoy independent lifestyles in a gorgeous property overlooking the Oaken Holt grounds. Our highly trained team are always available to provide a light helping hand along with day-to-day activities, and our residents live with the peace of mind that care and support is always there if they need it.
Oaken Holt has been updated to meet the latest care standards whilst retaining some charming original features such as oak panelling, painted ceilings and plaster cornices. There are stunning lounges and dining areas, a bistro and hair salon as well as a library. Residents are often popping over to the shops in Witney and Kidlington, or to a local pub for lunch and we've enjoyed mystery tours of Oxford and boat trips on the Thames. Our residents and families enjoy feeling a part of the local community where residents and local people meet at our events including barbecues, cheese and wine evenings and coffee mornings.

Keeping things personal
At Oaken Holt
The wonderful surroundings at Oaken Holt are matched by the standard of care our team brings residents. We love learning as much as we can about the people we care for, so your loved one’s time is tailored to their individual needs, interests and preferences. This can be as small as knowing when they like to wake up, to how they like their tea, and everything in between.
We give as much independence as possible, letting individuals choose how to run the home and if they prefer dinner in front of the TV, or even dusting their own room, we’ll make it happen. Just as putting their own stamp on their bedroom, we’ll help them to personalise it with the things they love.
