About

Mumbles Nursing Home sits on the seafront in Mumbles, a coastal village near Swansea, with views over the bay. It was formerly Ty Glyn, the home of novelist and businesswoman Amy Dillwyn, and opened as a nursing home in 1990. It has 28 places for men and women, including nursing care for adults over 45 and EMI nursing care. Care Inspectorate Wales graded the home Good for well-being, care and support, environment, and leadership and management.

Residents join birthday and Christmas celebrations, a summer barbecue, and visits from musicians, singers, dancers and therapy animals. A dedicated activities organiser runs reminiscence, singing, bingo and ball games, and residents help plan the programme. Chiropody, hairdressing, manicures and hand massage are available, and weather permitting, outings take in local pubs, restaurants and beach walks.
