Burford

This contemporary 64-bed care home for Porthaven Care Homes forms a key component of a wider masterplan that also includes extra-care accommodation and residential properties. The architectural approach draws on a palette of locally inspired, high-quality materials — including Cotswold stone, grey slate, oak timber and cream render — ensuring the building sits comfortably within its Oxfordshire setting.

The care home is arranged around a central courtyard, providing sheltered outdoor space and views toward the neighbouring golf course. The main entrance is positioned to address a landscaped green axis running through the masterplan, reinforcing clear wayfinding and a strong sense of arrival.
