Why Choose Glen Tanar

At Glen Tanar, we specialise in 24-hour care for just 21 elderly ladies and gentlemen in a homely, comfortable, and safe environment. We take great pride in providing a high standard of friendly, individual, and personal care.

Glen Tanar is a large detached property that has been sympathetically converted to create a unique residential home for the elderly. The home is set in its own grounds and has ample parking areas. The home is fully equipped to meet the individual needs of its residents while retaining a homely and inviting environment. Glen Tanar is ideally situated in a quiet residential area of Bispham, close to the Queen’s Promenade. The home is convenient for a short stroll to the local shops or the promenade. Glen Tanar is equipped with a very modern visiting pod, which can be used for safe visits when required.

Accessible & Comfortable

Bedrooms

All bedrooms at Glen Tanar are thoughtfully designed with comfort in mind. Each room is fitted with its own washbasin, and residents have access to ample toilet facilities throughout the home. A mobility-friendly shower room is available, and an en suite room is also part of the home though highly sought-after due to its added convenience.

Quality of Life

Our Activities Coordinator tailors a wide range of activities to suit the individual interests and hobbies of our residents. They spend quality time with residents both one-on-one and in group settings and are a much-valued member of our close-knit team. Glen Tanar has a wonderful relationship with the local nursery – residents often enjoy day trips to the nursery, and in turn, the children regularly visit the home to spend time with the residents. One of the most loved pastimes is “Incredible Eggs”, where residents experience the joy of watching eggs hatch right in the home.
