Show more "Mulberry Court, is an extra care scheme built in a traditional style from Cotswold stone and offers supported, independent living in a quiet area just outside the market town of Cirencester, The court is surrounded by green areas and is a short distance from the town centre and 15 miles from Swindon.

Buses stop outside the court and take you into town or there are trains from Kemble and Swindon. The local volunteer service offers a dial-a-ride facility and there are several reliable taxi companies for residents to use. The court has a good range of onsite facilities including three communal lounges, laundry, guest room, hairdresser, restaurant, lifts and car park.

Care is available 24 hours as required. The wheelchair-accessible courtyard gardens are a real feature of Mulberry Court, offering a pleasant place for residents to sit and relax or eat outside in the summer. There is an attractive pagoda, bird tables, raised flowerbeds and a Mulberry tree at the far end of the lawn. Residents are involved with helping in the garden and enjoy growing their own tomatoes."
