The Oakwood

Enriching the lives of the older generation

Nestled in the suburb of Battlefield, Shrewsbury, on the outskirts of a Shropshire woodland, The Oakwood has been designed to embody the essence of personalised living. This purpose-built contemporary residence is set to welcome its first guests in early 2025. Exuding comfort and luxury, the architectural aesthetics seamlessly blend with Rotherwood’s renowned excellence showcased by its sister care homes, Roden Hall and Colwall Care Home.

The Oakwood will have 70 thoughtfully appointed suites, each furnished to the highest standard. Beyond these private rooms unfolds an array of experiences - from an inviting library to a relaxed café and two bars. Craft rooms will inspire creative exploration, while a bespoke hair and nail salon will invite residents to be pampered. Dining will embrace uniqueness, offering a personalised medley of flavours enjoyed within elegant and relaxed settings - even on the terrace, where nature and nurture will unite. Guided by dedicated Lifestyle Coordinators, a diverse range of activities tailored to individual preferences will enrich each resident's journey.
