Meet The Manager
Doina Hirta is Manager at Glebelands House.
Glebelands House provides award-winning 24-hour nursing and residential care in a loving and friendly environment.
Previously a home for people in the Film and TV industry, Glebelands has a fantastic reputation locally and is situated just outside Wokingham town centre in a quiet residential area. Set in stunning landscaped grounds, the home benefits from a high standard of décor including many original features as well as a hair salon, grand dining room and cinema.
Our residents enjoy beautiful en-suite bedrooms, each with an uninterrupted view of our stunning gardens. We are proud of our home-cooked meals and our excellent programme of activities designed to keep our residents happy, stimulated and engaged.
Glebelands House Care Home in Wokingham is an impressive care facility that delivers exceptional Nursing and Residential Care to the older people of Wokingham, Reading, Camberley, Bracknell, and East Berkshire.
Although only a short walk from the centre of Wokingham, Glebelands feels like part of a historic estate in the heart of the countryside. The home benefits from magnificent landscaped gardens, a stunning summer house and a relaxing conservatory. It is also surrounded by thick woodlands, which really sets it apart from all other care homes.
The team at Glebelands is loving and caring. They have been chosen because of these qualities and their desire to deliver the best possible care. They always focus on supporting the residents to remain as independent as possible, never forgetting they are all individuals with a wealth of life experience and knowledge of the world.
Greensleeves Care, a not-for-profit organisation and one of the country's best and most respected care charities manages the home.
