The Croft Care Home offers a warm and welcoming environment at the heart of a friendly village community. Residents receive high-quality, person-centred care and support in a safe and homely setting, helping them maintain independence, enjoy daily life and feel truly at home.
Tucked away on the outskirts of Amersham, our home offers a peaceful retreat while keeping the town’s shops, library and GP practice just a short journey away. Here, life moves at a comfortable pace, and every corner of the home is designed to feel welcoming and personal.
Residents can unwind in cosy bedrooms, enjoy conversation in intimate lounges, or gather in spacious communal areas for activities and social time. Step outside into our landscaped garden, where sun-dappled paths, colourful flower beds and quiet seating spots provide the perfect setting for relaxation, reflection, or a chat with friends.
With 24-hour tailored care, we focus on understanding what makes each resident unique, supporting their daily routines, hobbies and preferences so they can feel fully at home and truly themselves.
Social activities
Our residents help shape the activities we offer, from pottery and bingo to trips to the garden centre and shopping in town. This ensures every activity is meaningful and enjoyable for them.
Dining
At The Croft Care Home you will be served freshly prepared home cooked meals by our team of expert chefs. They ensure all our meals are healthy, nutritionally balanced and, most importantly, locally sources wherever possible. Meals are served in our superb dining room, but you also have the option for food to be served in your room for a more private dining experience.
Nutrition is an important part of the care we provide. That’s why our catering team take time to get to know your likes and dislikes before putting together a vibrant and varied menu for you to choose from.
Bedrooms
We have 60 bedrooms for people living at The Croft Care Home, with a range of room sizes, including some that can accommodate couples. Ground-floor rooms offer lovely views of the garden and patios, while first-floor rooms are fully accessible via stairs or a lift.
Each bedroom is a blank canvas, allowing you to personalise it with your own photos, pictures, and furniture to make it feel like home. Personalising your space also helps our care team understand what’s important to you, supporting the building of warm, meaningful relationships.
Gardens
Our home features two beautifully enclosed and secure gardens, one at the front and one at the back, offering peaceful outdoor spaces for residents to enjoy. The gardens are filled with colourful planters and raised beds bursting with flowers and vegetables, and there are plenty of comfortable spots to sit and relax.
These gardens are perfect for outdoor activities, gentle exercise or dining al fresco. Nature enthusiasts will particularly enjoy spending a sunny afternoon watching the birds nesting in the mature trees, making our outdoor spaces a tranquil retreat throughout the year.

Frequently asked questions
Funding may be available from your local authority. Firstly, they will check how much help and what kind of care you need: this is the needs assessment. Following on from that, the free financial assessment calculates the total cost of care and how much you’ll need to contribute.
If you don’t want a financial assessment you can choose to pay for your care home yourself – this is called self-funding.
Here at The Croft we offer tailored 24-hour a day respite care that allows you to continue living life your way with as much support you may need from our care team.
This could be a one-off stay, to give a regular family carer a much-needed break, or a regular arrangement to give you variety in your care. Our personalised care can last as long as you need it to and can start within 24-hours.
Our bespoke care and support is available for a single weekly fee. That includes care, accommodation, laundry, meals, housekeeping, social outings and more.
That means no additional charges or hidden fees, just consistent, all-inclusive support for a weekly fee.
When you move in to our home, you have the option to enjoy mealtimes in the communal areas with other residents, or to enjoy some private time in your room.
