Summerhill

About Summerhill

Summerhill is a residential care home set in a quiet location at The Dunterns in the heart of Alnwick, within easy reach of the town's shops, restaurants and amenities. Registered with the Care Quality Commission to provide personal care for up to 29 older people, including people living with dementia, it is run by Raycare Limited. The smaller, more intimate setting gives it a homely, 'home away from home' atmosphere, supported by staff longevity and a family-centred approach. Bedrooms are single and en-suite, with some suitable for couples.

The home was rated Good by the CQC across all five areas of Safe, Effective, Caring, Responsive and Well-led following an assessment carried out in spring 2025. Facilities include a recently renovated dining room, three lounges, a quiet drawing room overlooking the gardens, a hydrotherapy room and lift access to the upper floor, with off-street parking and level access. Weekly hair salon visits and a holistic approach to care reflect the home's emphasis on adding life to residents' years.
