The White House is a stunning country home set in eighteen acres of beautiful formal gardens, woodland and paddocks. It offers a safe, homely and caring environment whilst providing a high standard of person-centred care for up to forty-six residents of any age, who have a diagnosis of dementia or associated mental health problems.
A successfully run family business, The White House was founded by Julie Harrison in 1983. Julie's daughter, Emma is the registered manager and her son, Neil, manages both the maintenance and the grounds. Together they share the day to day management of the home.
The home consists of the Main House and three purpose-built connected units which allow free-flowing access to all areas, for all residents.

THE WHITE HOUSE
Named after local villages, these three purpose-built units are linked to the Main House, surrounding a magnificent courtyard. They all offer spacious, secure, homely living space.
Each of the units has nine en-suite wet rooms, a lounge, dining room with kitchenette and a disabled toilet. Hedge End unit also offers an assisted bathroom. The units are colour themed to assist residents with orientation. Each unit, like the Main House, has a unit manager who organises their dedicated team of staff and the day-to-day running of the unit.
The Botley unit supports our higher dependency residents who require extra support due to their increased care requirements. This unit also has an increased staff-to-resident ratio.
We have four patios and a lavender-lined walkway offering an opportunity for relaxation and exercise. All areas are secure and accessible to residents. Here they can walk and enjoy all that the garden has to offer safely and securely.
Our fish pond has a variety of fish, including some specimen Japanese Koi Carp. Two stunning water features add a lovely finishing touch to the grounds. Numerous bird feeders around the grounds attract lots of native birds, including both green and spotted woodpeckers.
Meals are regularly served outside in the summer and we also offer a barbecue for relatives to use on visits if they choose.
