Construction work is under way on a new next-generation care home which developers claim will be on a par with any luxury boutique hotel.

Sycamore Heights Nursing Home, in Shakespeare Road, has been designed by award-winning architects Condy Lofthouse (CLA).

And when it opens in autumn 2023, it will combine well-appointed rooms with elegant and spacious living areas.

Sumi Thayan, Kingsley co-founder and managing director, said: “We are delighted that this new luxury facility will bring the Kingsley operation back into Bedford where we have served families since 2008.”
