Great places to socialise, enjoy an activity or have quiet time
Situated in Poole, The Lindsay is a great place for residents to make friends with one another and to welcome visitors. There’s a café and a library, and our lounge areas are great places to relax.
Fresh, tasty food
Good food, in pleasant surroundings, is a real priority. Our café offers fresh-baked cakes and biscuits plus speciality coffees. Appetising meals are served in our spacious restaurant, café or garden, or in the resident’s room. Our chef talks to each resident when they move in about their likes, dislikes and any special dietary needs.

Private dining areas for families
Families can spend quiet time together for special events and celebrations like birthday parties.

Our own library and cinema
Residents are encouraged to keep up their enjoyment of books, a great way to have peaceful moments. Movie showings bring people together, and family and friends are always invited.

There’s no typical day at The Lindsay, but we arrange plenty to do, both here at the home as well as out and about.
It's never too late
It's never too late to try something new or tick something off a bucket list . We've helped residents hold an art show, milk a cow, have a pamper day and go to the football!

Getting out and about
We like to arrange trips to wherever residents would like to go, and so we share a minibus with another Bupa home nearby for trips to the seaside, boat trips, and shopping.

Lots of special interests
Residents can get involved as much or as little as they like with our range of activities. We have singers, quizzes, knit and natter, chair aerobics, art club to name a few.

“We received only positive comments about The Lindsay throughout our inspection… There was a full programme of activities to keep people meaningfully occupied and stimulated... Staff were polite, respectful and mindful of people's dignity… Staff knew people well and had a caring and respectful manner… People were smartly dressed, clean and comfortable.”
"My father was getting lonely at home so we suggested a 'holiday respite' stay. I live nearby. After a pre-stay visit, a two-week stay was booked. He had a wonderful time and can't wait to go back for another stay. He especially enjoyed the food as he can be quite fussy. He couldn't thank the staff enough. They were wonderful and even managed to get him to join in activities."
Daughter of Resident, 9th October 2023, carehome.co.uk
"A very caring environment with a range of activities, competent and caring staff and expert nursing staff."
Son of Resident, 3rd August 2023, carehome.co.uk
"I was diagnosed with Motor neurone disease in February and deteriorated very quickly. My spirit was low, and my desire to live was non-existent. Being referred to The Lindsay Care Home from the hospital is the best thing that could have happened to me! I have been blessed with very willing and competent staff to attend to my medical and personal care needs. The food here is very good, and the chefs are always willing to accommodate culinary variation at the drop of a hat. Spiritually and psychologically, I am also blessed with participating in the structure of the daily activities. The management team have been very supportive and forthcoming with organising external activities that I have wanted to achieve. As much as my physical abilities have deteriorated, I have been supported to maintain independence at meal times. Most importantly as I am spending the final chapter of my life here, I have been blessed to have fun and laughter created with all the staff!"
