About

Cwmbran House is one of the highest-rated care homes in Cwmbran, as reviewed by residents and their families. It's a purpose-built single-storey care home for over 65s in Pontnewydd with 56 bedrooms across three separate living areas, all alongside the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal.

Cwmbran House has three separate communities within the building; two communities supporting people requiring dementia residential care and one community supports people with general residential needs. The majority of bedrooms have a wet room en-suite, but all rooms benefit from a private toilet and sink en-suite facility. We have five communal lounges and two communal dining areas, as well as a dedicated activities area.

Cwmbran House has four large private garden areas. Residents have plenty of opportunities to relax, do a spot of gardening or enjoy other outdoor activities. Everybody can benefit from time outside without having to go far from their rooms.

We have an on-site professional kitchen where our cooks prepare three home-made meals each day for everyone. There are multiple options at every mealtime, from hot meals to salads and snacks. Our experienced culinary colleagues can cater for specialist diets and individual needs as required.

Here at Cwmbran House, we recognise the importance of families and friends and encourage you to be involved with events and activities. We provide a daily activities programme covering seven days a week, with activities including exercise classes, outings to the local area, pet therapy and partnership with the Forget me Not choir.
