Located a short drive from the M1, Elizabeth Gardens Care Home is situated in the civil parish of Loughton and Great Holm, less than a ten minute drive from the centre of Milton Keynes. Great Holm and its surrounding areas include notable locations such as Bletchley Park and Silverstone Racing Circuit.

Elizabeth Gardens is perfectly situated to offer our residents a variety of day trips, from serene walks around Campbell Park to an evening out at Milton Keynes Theatre. Milton Keynes is also easily accessible on the train from London, meaning there are plenty of ways for loved ones to visit our home.

Elizabeth Gardens Care Home offers 24-hour residential, nursing, dementia and respite care in an environment purpose-built for the practical delivery of high-quality care whilst still being stylish, comfortable and incorporating many thoughtful features that are always tailored towards the satisfaction and safety of our residents.

Experienced and empathetic care comes as standard at every Porthaven care home, and at Elizabeth Gardens our team of hand-selected individuals are available to support not only the physical needs of our residents but their emotional, intellectual and spiritual needs too. We place a particular emphasis on encouraging independence and promoting wellbeing through good nutrition, hydration and engagement.

Every resident at Elizabeth Gardens Care Home benefits from a generously sized bedroom with an ensuite wetroom, as well as numerous communal living areas for socialising with loved ones, engaging in their hobbies and dining. Our residents also have access to our state-of-the-art gym, cinema, café and hair and nail salon. A dedicated activities and wellbeing room and a private dining room for special family occasions complete the array of first-class facilities on offer here at Elizabeth Gardens.

Elizabeth Gardens Care Home is a place to live well in our care in style. We would be delighted to speak to you and show you around our home so you can see for yourself what makes a Porthaven home so special.

News & Events at Elizabeth Gardens

Staying hydrated this summer.

August has undoubtedly been another month of hot weather!

To keep our residents and team members properly hydrated in the heat, Elizabeth Gardens was treated to Tallulah’s regular rounds of our home with her refreshments trolley. We were able to enjoy many afternoons full of fresh fruit salads, juicy watermelon slices and some delicious mocktails.

Thank you to our chefs for preparing these amazing platters, and to Tallulah for distributing the goods!

Celebrating Our Grand Opening

What a special day it has been as we officially celebrated the Grand Opening of Elizabeth Gardens Care Home.

This celebration was not only about marking our official opening but also about recognising and thanking everyone who has supported us throughout our first 10 months. It was touching to celebrate alongside our residents, staff, families, and the wider community who have all played a part in making Elizabeth Gardens feel like home.

Our afternoon tea was made even more memorable by the presence of the Mayor of Milton Keynes, William French – the late Queen Elizabeth II’s former Breakfast Butler, and to officially declare us open, Lady Howe, the Lord-Lieutenant of Buckinghamshire. We are so grateful that they joined us to mark this special occasion.

To everyone who has supported, encouraged, and believed in us, we thank you. Your kindness and commitment have helped us build a caring, welcoming community that we’re so proud of.

Here’s to everything we’ve achieved together over the past 10 months, and to an exciting year ahead. We can’t wait to see what the next chapter brings for Elizabeth Gardens Care Home.

Porthavenbury Prep!

We started the week by creating our very own Glastonbury-style festival flags. Using a recycled old bedsheet, our residents got creative and designed unique patterns using a variety of fun techniques.

Paint-filled water pistols were used to spray vibrant colours across the fabric, while balloons dipped in paint were thrown onto the sheet to create fantastic splashes and textures. There was plenty of laughter throughout the activity, and everyone thoroughly enjoyed getting involved.

The result was a collection of gorgeous, colourful flags that perfectly captured the spirit of a summer festival.
