About

Arden House is a 14-bed residential home on Recreation Road, just off the centre of Pickering, a small market town in North Yorkshire. Shops, cafés, hotels and the Kirk Theatre are within walking distance, and the North York Moors are within easy reach. The home provides residential, respite and convalescent care for people aged over 65, with staff on duty around the clock. It also supports people living with mental health needs, sensory impairment or reduced mobility.

Each of the 14 single bedrooms is individually furnished and has an en-suite toilet and a TV point. Some rooms adjoin a private lounge, and residents may bring small pieces of their own furniture. Activities and companionship help residents stay active and connected. The home is rated Good by the Care Quality Commission, in a report published in 2020.
