About Us

Downside House provides a comfortable, homely and caring environment, allowing for a maximum of self-choice and a minimum of restriction, with the need for privacy and dignity being of paramount importance.
Set atop the unique hillside architecture of the Victorian historical town of Ventnor, the house offers a peaceful yet convenient location from which to enjoy the southeast coast of this beautiful Island.
We recognise that although age brings infirmities requiring sympathetic help it does not diminish the need for friendship, laughter, stimulation, and personal achievement.
The accommodation we provide is designed to make our residents feel comfortable in their surroundings. We actively encourage residents to decorate their room with their own belongings to promote a sense of familiarity. The bedrooms are tastefully decorated, and all have en suite or private toilet facilities.
we have two lounges where residents can relax or meet with visitors.
At the rear of the house, there is a large, landscaped garden where residents can sit or enjoy a spot of gardening, and a south facing veranda
There is a passenger lift and front ramp access
We provide 24-hour care by dedicated, qualified staff
