Situated in a quiet residential neighbourhood
Just a couple of miles from the centre of Chelmsford, The Lawns is in a peaceful area surrounded by pleasant homes and lots of green open spaces.




“I love working at The Lawns and have been with Bupa for 28 years. Too often we under estimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around and this is what our team feel about the our residents and families.”
Christine Jennings, Home manager at The Lawns

Great places to socialise, enjoy an activity or have quiet time
This purpose-built home has attractive gables plus a huge skylight and big windows to let lots of light in. Outside, our well-tended gardens are wheelchair friendly so everyone can enjoy the fresh air.
Lovely bedrooms ideal for those who enjoy their own company
With nicely decorated rooms, we respect when people just want to sit in their room to read or do some knitting.

Lots of ways to enjoy the landscaped gardens
There is the four loggias, which is a gallery room that is opened up to overlook the gardens, and a large patio with seating and parasols.

Plenty of places for welcoming a visitor
Family and friends are always welcome and residents can use the patio, two lounges, three dining rooms to have a catch up.

There’s no typical day at The Lawns, we arrange plenty to do, both here at the home as well as out and about.
Creativity for everyone
We have a Knit and Natter club, flower arranging, cake decorating, and arts & crafts to ensure there is something for everyone.

Enjoyable ways to encourage mobility
Residents can participate in gardening, move and groove sessions, exercise club, and trips out that encourage exercise.

Getting together to have fun
We want residents to get involved in things together with movie matinées, pub visits, singalongs, and reminiscence sessions.

“The Lawns is a very well run home. It is clean and modern. The staff are all friendly and welcoming. I have made a good relationship with the staff and feel reassured that my father is in the best care. They offer you tea or coffee when you visit and the facilities are great. I can have meals with Dad that are very good and I can spend quality time with him.”
Daughter of resident, 08 May 2020, carehome.co.uk
“I have found The Lawns to be a lovely place for my father.”
Son of resident, 13 March 2020, carehome.co.uk
“Your staff are an asset to your company. We felt that our mum was being looked after by caring individuals. We also noted that staff were happy in their work which must be a reflection of good management and team leaders. We felt welcomed and very supported with Mum's care and we have no hesitation in recommending The Lawns to others. We shall actually miss our visits to The Lawns and our meals.”
Daughter of resident, 06 December 2019, carehome.co.uk
