Established in 1968, Avalon Nursing Home has been a trusted provider of quality nursing care to the residents of Eastbourne for over 50 years. Our commitment to excellence in care has earned us a strong reputation, with many families choosing Avalon for their loved ones based on the positive experiences of relatives who have been cared for here. We take pride in being a safe pair of hands for your loved ones' well-being and comfort.
At Avalon, the health and safety of our residents and staff remain our top priority, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic. We are delighted to share that we currently do not have any suspected or confirmed cases of Covid-19, and our facility is infection-free. Most of our residents have had their Covid Autumn boost and their Influenza vaccine for 2023 and will be having their Spring booster in April 2024. The home also ensures that all equipment used on the premises is serviced either 6 monthly or 12 monthly as per guidance and regulation.
Situated in the picturesque Hampden Park area of Eastbourne, Avalon Nursing Home offers a serene and peaceful setting for our residents. Close to Hampden Park and St. Mary's Church, our location allows easy access to the Hampden Park shopping center and train station. Our nursing home features two wings, each catering to specific care needs.
The nursing wing at Avalon Nursing Home is housed in a spacious, detached building with private front and secured rear gardens. On the ground floor, you will find comfortable single and double rooms, a large lounge/dining area for group activities, a conservatory, clinical facilities, bathrooms, and staff amenities. The first floor comprises additional bedrooms, bathrooms, and a wheelchair-accessible toilet.
In 2009, we expanded our services by introducing the Dementia Wing, providing specialized care for residents with dementia needs. The Dementia Wing, located in a detached house, is directly linked to the nursing wing for seamless care. The ground floor features a spacious lounge/dining area with a conservatory, along with en-suite bedrooms equipped with wet room facilities. The first floor offers more bedrooms, a communal wet room and toilet, and wheelchair access via a ramp and lift.

My uncle has been with the home since the beginning of December 2021. I feel he is well looked after and the staff are friendly and helpful. When we visit him they are very helpful and supportive. The home is very well maintained and clean which makes you feel he is safe and comfortable
Richard M NephewMy husband seems to be very happy here. The manager and staff are efficient and friendly. He has put on weight so must be eating well. It will be good when Covid has gone so visiting restrictions can be lifted. I would recommend Avalon to others.
Janet L WifeMy service user is happy and content in Avalon. Staff are always happy to help with any questions etc. Emails are promptly answered, it's very easy to contact management. My service user has improved immensely since arriving at Avalon I believe his continued improvement is down to the staff and the high level of support and care that he receives.
A H FriendI live a long way from Eastbourne and have care responsibilities that make visiting my mother impossible, particularly during the Covid pandemic but staff are very accommodating when I contact my mother. The level of care seems exceptional. I am particularly impressed with the way the home has managed Covid restrictions and with the clear communications, I have had in this regard.
John SonThis is excellent and more than deserved. You have all proved during this pandemic how fantastic you are and unquestionably how much you value your staff and residents. So many others should take your lead and follow your excellence in all that you do. From my whole family to you all, thank you for looking after my dad with care, compassion and fun. You are a credit to all carers the nation over.
Ollie F SonThe staff has always been helpful, kind, and compassionate towards my Uncle. They have also been very helpful, considerate, and professional whenever I have spoken to them myself on the phone. The food sounds like it is really top quality and my Uncle is looking so much better since he has been at this home. Thank you to all the staff and their dedication.
Katie C NieceI cannot fault the care my mum is receiving at Avalon but, in particular, the care and support that not only the residents are receiving, but also the families of those residents during the lockdown period.
Jane W DaughterIt would be very hard to fault the care, interest, affection, concern or respect shown to my mother in law by the team at Avalon. I would recommend to anyone with elderly relatives requiring round the clock care in a warm 'family' atmosphere.
N K Son-in-lawThe home seems well run, clean and friendly. However, a number of the staff are from abroad and my mother has difficulty understanding what they say.
