Welcome to Elmwood Care Home in Leeds

newly refurbished

Oakwood is a historic Leeds suburb that's famously known for its clock tower and the home to Elmwood. Featuring a spacious main lounge and large, mature landscaped gardens with the added bonuses of a furnished patio area, summerhouse and peaceful water feature, Elmwood is a well-equipped and comfortable home.

We offer various levels of care at the home that have been carefully planned out so that we can cater for a range of needs – from nursing and post-operative care to shorter-term convalescence or respite. The home also has specialist palliative care facilities.

Life at Elmwood Care Home

There is a wide range of activities and hobbies to enjoy at Elmwood, so we're sure that you'll find something to keep you occupied, whatever your tastes may be.

    Our activities

    Elmwood has its own in-house activity co-ordinator to ensure that there's always something to do at the home. We welcome all our new residents and find out exactly what sort of activities they enjoy by chatting to them about their likes and dislikes, as well as suggest some that they might not have considered before but will now have the opportunity to try.

    Handicrafts, gardening, quizzes and concerts are just a selection of the wide range of activities running at our home. Every month we also run a special seasonal event. This could be a Burns Night meal, a chance for family to join us for a Mother's Day celebration or a chance to cheer on the latest British hopeful at Wimbledon.


    • Regular days out
    • Visits from local entertainers
    • Dedicated in-house activity co-ordinator
    • Seasonally themed events

    Our food

    We try to encourage our residents to use the traditional-style dining room for mealtimes, as they are a great way to socialise with other residents and catch up with them, but everyone has the choice to eat in their own room if they prefer.


    • Tea and biscuits served throughout the day
    • Meals prepared with fresh ingredients
    • Homemade cakes every afternoon
    • Wine and sherry available with meals

    Our rooms

    Many of the en-suite bedrooms at Elmwood have stunning views across the gardens, and because of the age of the property, some also have stone mullioned bay or large picture windows.

    All of the rooms come with Bupa's standard features, which include television, 24-hour call systems, thermostatic radiators and smoke detectors.

    • Residents welcome to bring personal items
    • Wi-Fi available
    • All rooms cleaned daily
    • Telephone points
