Kendal House is a small, friendly residential care home in Whitley Bay, just moments from the seaside. We provide a warm, safe and welcoming environment, with personalised care for residents aged 65 and over.
At Kendal House, we pride ourselves on creating a close-knit community with fewer residents. As a result, we can offer more personalised attention and support. Our beautiful back garden is also a peaceful place to enjoy fresh air and relaxation.
Lastly, with a long-established reputation in the area, we are dedicated to ensuring our residents feel comfortable, cared for, and truly at home.
Note: Unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate residents at Kendal House who require the full time use of a wheelchair.
Our Birch Hill, Carntyne and Melbury House care homes are all fully accessible for wheelchair users.

Kendal House can support residents who have some mobility difficulties and may need assistance moving safely around the home.

I have made a few good friends and find I can join in with conversations and activities as I would at home. I am very content.
