Paternoster House Care Home offers a safe and homely environment at the heart of a friendly village community. We provide high-quality, person-centred care and support, helping residents to live comfortably, maintain their independence and enjoy an active, fulfilling lifestyle.

Paternoster House is a welcoming care home in Cirencester, providing compassionate residential, respite, dementia and nursing care for up to 40 people living there. Formerly run by The Order of St John’s Trust, the home has now joined the Agincare family. This ensures that this much-valued local service can continue to support people in the community.

Our home provides 24-hour a day tailored care in a home-from-home setting, which you are encouraged to personalise and make your own. Paternoster House is fully equipped with everything you need and our team ensures that every detail is to your liking; helping you feel comfortable and settled as soon as you move in.

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 Paternoster House Care Home, mealtimes are a special experience. Our team of skilled chefs create freshly prepared, home-cooked dishes designed to delight the senses. Wherever possible, ingredients are locally sourced to ensure every meal is fresh, nutritious and full of flavour.

Residents can enjoy their meals in our elegant dining rooms or our light and tranquil conservatory, where the atmosphere makes every meal feel special. For those who prefer privacy, meals can also be enjoyed in the comfort of their own room, offering a personal dining experience.

Bedrooms

We can accommodate up to 40 residents, creating a friendly, community atmosphere. Our care home offers a mix of bedrooms, some with ensuite facilities and others with a convenient washbasin. For rooms without an ensuite, accessible bathrooms are always close by. All rooms are spacious, comfortable, and designed to feel like a welcoming personal retreat.

The bedrooms are a blank canvas for you to personalise with your own photos, pictures and furniture to help you feel at home. It also helps our care team understand what’s important to you.

When you move in, our fantastic team will be there to ensure the transition is as seamless as possible. At Paternoster House, our all-inclusive fee covers everything you need—towels, bedding, laundry, meals, and personalised care. 

All you need to bring are your personal belongings to make your space feel like home, and we’ll take care of the rest.

Gardens

Paternoster House Care Home features a beautiful, spacious landscaped garden that comes alive with summer activities. Colourful planters and raised flower beds add charm, while plenty of seating areas provide residents with comfortable spots to relax and enjoy the outdoors.

The garden is perfect for social activities, outdoor dining or simply soaking up the sun. Nature enthusiasts will love spending a sunny afternoon watching the birds nesting in our mature trees. Throughout the year, the garden offers a peaceful retreat and a chance to connect with nature in a safe, welcoming environment.

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 Paternoster House 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.

Our expert chefs prepare a daily menu with nutritious options for you to choose from based on your likes and dislikes. What’s more, our care teams are always on hand to support and encourage you at mealtimes, ensuring you get the nutrition and hydration needed.

If you would like to view our home then don’t hesitate to give us a call and we would be happy to arrange a no obligation home visit. Alternatively, we have regular coffee mornings where anyone is able to pop in. This is great opportunity to get to know our team and residents.

Once you become a resident at our home, there are no set visiting hours, so your family and friends are free to come and go as much as they want.

Prior to your move in to our home, you’ll receive a free no obligation care assessment so we can understand your care needs and create a care plan that suits you best. Your family is welcome to join this process. This allows us to create a bespoke care package that allows you to have the best quality of life.

Plus, through our portal, you and your loved ones can easily check on your care with real-time updates on medication, nutrition, welfare, and more. Read notes from our care teams and keep tabs on the care you receive—all at the click of a button.

Head off the Bristol Road onto Watermoor Way at the roundabout. When you reach the T-junction, turn left onto Watermoor Road. Go past King Street on the right and then you’ll reach Paternoster on the left hand side of the road, opposite St Michaels Park.

It’s perfectly placed for easy access to local shops, cafés, and community amenities, so residents can enjoy being part of a vibrant yet close-knit town.
