Ashby House Care Home in Milton Keynes
Ashby House is a residential care home that offers several different types of elderly care, including respite care for short breaks and permanent care for those who can no longer live at home. You can now pre-book respite stays up to a year in advance as well.
Set in a quiet corner of Milton Keynes, Ashby House is a short drive from many of the city’s famous landmarks, including Milton Keynes shopping centre, the theatre district and Stadium MK, home to the MK Dons. The home is situated close to the A428, 5 miles drive from junction 14 of the M1.
Dementia Care
'Memory Lane' utilises a careful blend of skills and techniques developed by leading experts in the field of dementia care, incorporating person-centred design in its use of colour and cues to help individuals navigate through the home, whilst thoughtful interior design features, such us adapted crockery and tableware assists with reminiscence. Communities are broken up into separate units with a family feel so people can feel safe and comfortable. Care is focused on independence, dignity and choice, with a person-centred approach. Staffing levels reflect the needs of residents, and people living with dementia are offered a range of activities to help preserve life skills, support interactions and retain a sense of purpose and selfhood.
Ashby House also has a varied and exciting social calendar and we are always ready to celebrate any occasion. Our hospitality includes first class dining, with all meals cooked on the premises using locally produced, fresh ingredients.
We warmly welcome visitors, so if you’d like to arrange a viewing of the home, or to find out more about the services that we offer at Ashby House, please contact our General Manager, or one of our lovely team members, who would be delighted to help.
We look forward to meeting you.

Our Team
The dedicated and experienced team are passionate about providing quality care to each individual living at the home.
Francesca Fosu
Hello. I am Francesca and I am the General Manager here at the home.
I completed my nurse training ten years ago and I joined Barchester when I first qualified as a nurse. I have worked for other care providers since then but I felt drawn back to Barchester as I am supported to develop personally and professionally.
I really enjoy working at Ashby House as Deputy Manager and now General Manager and I am committed to supporting all our team members to achieve their full potential.
I always aim to carry out my role in collaboration with residents, their families and team members, to ensure residents live enriched and fulfilling lives, in a safe and happy environment. I strive to create a wondrous atmosphere and am truly grateful to residents’ families who constantly show their appreciation for our care of their loved ones.
