Close Care (Mary Rose Mews)
The Mary Rose Mews complex is a purpose built retirement development of 46 leasehold one and two bedroom apartments set in the delightful mature grounds of the Brendoncare care centre on the outskirts of Alton, based around a landscaped central courtyard.
Close Care offers many advantages over traditional sheltered housing schemes and has become a very popular accommodation choice among people in their retirement years because of its unique combination of advantages. Older people may continue to live in their own homes and take part in the mainstream of life despite failing health or compromised independence. They receive personal care and support services if and when they need it, and have the security of knowing that qualified assistance is on hand 24 hours a day at the press of a button.
Brendoncare Alton caters for residents, whether single or couples, with physical and mental frailty and provides extremely versatile care and accommodation services. Should one or other of you require full-time care, this can be provided within the same complex. This allows a couple with differing care needs to reside close by. The nursing home also offers short respite stays following illness or after discharge from hospital.
Independence with Care
Living within the Mary Rose Mews community in your own home you can be totally independent, while enjoying these extra services from the nursing home, all covered within the annual service charge:
- Your home linked by an alarm system to the nursing home with emergency calls being
answered 24 hours a day by a dedicated 'Close Care' team of friendly, familiar staff - Day to day maintenance of the buildings

- Insurance of the buildings
- Exterior window cleaning
- A fund for future maintenance e.g. exterior painting
