Our history
Broad Oak Manor is a Grade II-listed Queen Anne home, built in 1742 and originally serving as the home farm to the nearby Goldings Estate. Rich in character and history, it later became a private manor house in 1926, undergoing a number of thoughtful improvements during this time, including extensions by the renowned architect Harry Stuart Goodhart-Rendel. In 1976, Broad Oak Manor began a new chapter as a nursing home, combining its historic charm with a purpose centred around care, comfort, and community.
Set within beautiful landscaped gardens in the peaceful Hertfordshire countryside, Broad Oak Manor offers a setting that is both elegant and welcoming. The grounds remain an important part of daily life, providing residents, families, and visitors with lovely outdoor spaces to enjoy, whether for a quiet walk, time with loved ones, or simply taking in the surroundings. The Barn also adds to the warmth and character of Broad Oak Manor, offering a relaxed and inviting space that reflects the sense of community at the heart of life here.
In 2002, Broad Oak Lane opened beside the nursing home, introducing a collection of 29 luxury houses designed by local architect Mike Easton. This development allowed us to expand our offering while continuing to provide 24-hour personalised support in a home residents can truly call their own. Together, Broad Oak Manor and Broad Oak Lane reflect a long-standing commitment to creating a place where history, comfort, independence, and high-quality care come together.
Stories from our residents
"Kind and caring is the heart of this business. I wouldn’t consider anywhere else for my grandmother to reside, how they cared for my grandmother was incredible. Friendly, considerate and compassionate staff"
"The home and staff radiate a calm, caring and homely feel, it feels more like a 5 star hotel than a care setting! We cannot thank them enough for all their help and most importantly the exceptional care they provide"
