Welcome to Everwood Care

At Everwood, our care homes are more than just places to live — they’re communities filled with warmth, kindness, and friendly faces. Nestled in the heart of the New Forest, in the villages of Dibden Purlieu and Brockenhurst, our homes are surrounded by beautiful scenery that brings peace and comfort to daily life.

We’re passionate about creating a compassionate, nurturing environment where every resident feels truly at home. Our dedicated team takes the time to understand each person, ensuring they feel supported, valued, and cared for with dignity and respect.

From lively activities within the home to day trips that make the most of our wonderful surroundings, life at Everwood is full of opportunities to connect, engage, and enjoy meaningful experiences.

Here, exceptional care goes hand in hand with a true sense of belonging. We welcome you to our family, where every day is made as comfortable, fulfilling, and enjoyable as possible.

Everwood Care: Your Home From Home

At Everwood, we encourage every resident to make their bedroom a sanctuary - a place that truly feels like their own. You’re welcome to bring along treasured belongings, favourite pieces of furniture, hobby materials or books, so your room reflects your individual tastes and becomes a comforting, personal retreat.

Our bedrooms offer a spacious blank canvas, ready to be filled with the things you love, from a cosy armchair to family photographs and familiar keepsakes.

Beyond your own room, you’ll also find a choice of warm, welcoming spaces to enjoy - whether that’s relaxing quietly, sharing laughter with friends, welcoming family and guests, or joining in with our varied activities programme. Wherever you choose to spend your time, you’ll always feel at home.

"Moving my grandmother into a care home was not an easy decision, but Little Haven has made her and us as a family feel comfortable and at home.  Visiting my gran at Little Haven is like visiting her at home. I can go and make us a cup of tea and an offer of a piece of cake is always there. The staff are always so friendly from management to care staff and domestic staff.  Care homes don't always get good press but Little Haven deserves to be highly recommended and spoken highly of."

At Everwood, the care we offer is about so much more than support - it’s about helping every resident feel at home, valued, and able to live life to the fullest.

We know that choosing a care home can feel like a big step, so we’re here to make the transition gentle and reassuring for both residents and their families.

Many people find that starting with a short stay is a wonderful way to get to know us - with respite care available from just two days, you can ease into life here at your own pace.

For the team at Everwood, caring means treating every resident like family.  Through our care we bring comfort, companionship, and an environment where every resident can live life to the fullest.

"The staff at Little Haven are so caring kind and friendly that it is difficult to find the words to describe them. They care for my lovely wife in a way that I never could. Their 'love' is practical in ways that mine could never be. Not only are they kind to my wife but to me too. My tears frequently bear witness to their kindness."

Home Cooked Meals & An Active Lifestyle

Sharing good food and good company is at the heart of life at Everwood. Our chefs prepare fresh, nutritious meals every day, with menus shaped around residents’ tastes and dietary needs. When you join us, the chef will take time to learn about your likes and dislikes, so every meal feels personal as well as delicious.

Meals can be enjoyed in the privacy of your own room or shared in our dining room with friends, family and fellow residents. Seasonal ingredients are used wherever possible, and themed meals bring variety and the chance to try new flavours together.

Life at Everwood is also about enjoying the things you love and discovering new interests. Our lifestyle team work closely with residents to plan activities that reflect individual preferences - from gardening and cookery to arts, crafts, outings and entertainment - making sure there’s always something meaningful to take part in, at a pace that suits you.
