Kings Court care home provides specialist residential and respite care for older people. The team takes pride in delivering flexible, personalised and innovative care. There's a bedroom to suit every taste at Kings Court, and each is warm, bright and comfortable. The lifestyle team organises activities, outings and events tailored to residents' needs and interests, and the home is also active in the close-knit community of Barnard Castle, taking part in local craft fairs as well as groups like the WI. Charles Dickens once stayed here and even mentioned it in ‘Nicholas Nickleby’. The hotel ballroom is now the residents’ lounge, and many bedrooms are generously sized too.

Last year we tried a new idea of a "Give a gift tree", where we have a christmas tree with tags on that our residents have wished for on christmas day! Each tag is coded to a resident and has a few ideas on (to meet people's budgets if they'd like to take part and only need to buy what they want too). Gifts to be returned to Kings Court unwrapped so we can ensure dietry needs are met.
Our Give a gift tree will be in our reception by the end of the month, if you'd like join in we would be very grateful. Thank you Team Kings Court

Our Turn Barney Pink display is up, after discussions with our residents who picked and made the design.
First we were doing a giant cupcake, then a hot air balloon, then decided on balloons for John to request the Pink panther. So what our residents want we try to get!
We all think it looks amazing and well done team Kings Court

Kings Court

Kings Court care home is in the centre of the attractive town of Barnard Castle in County Durham.

We provide specialist residential and respite care for older people, as well as a day club and a home meal delivery service. We take pride in delivering flexible, personalised and innovative care.

Residents are at the heart of everything we do. The activities we organise are tailored to their needs and interests, and we organise activities, outings and events that will appeal to them. We’re also active in the close-knit community of Barnard Castle and take part in local craft fairs as well as groups like the WI. We love the exclusive performance that the Barnard Castle Players - a local theatrical group – give us twice a year before their show opens at the theatre.

Our historic building used to be the King’s Head hotel. Charles Dickens once stayed here and even mentioned it in ‘Nicholas Nickleby’. The hotel ballroom is now our residents’ lounge and many of our bedrooms are generously sized too.
