Two Trees is housed over three large houses that interlink, allowing easy access to each floor, including the use of a passenger lift and stair lift. We have 28 bedrooms, many of which are ensuite with bath/shower rooms; some have hoist facilities, either ceiling or mobile hoists. All bedrooms are individually decorated to meet the residents requirements. We also have a large garden area that is wheelchair accessible, which residents, family, and visitors have access to at all times. Two Trees also has 2 minibuses, which can be made available should residents choose this option. Both minibuses are wheelchair accessible.

Two Trees is only one mile from the city centre and is accessible via regular public transport. We are within a short walking distance of the local shopping village and a large park area, which is now home to the Plymouth Life Centre. The local pub is also a very short distance away, offering food and beverages.

Our service specialises in supporting adults aged 18+ with learning/physical disabilities to live their lives to the full with support from our fully trained staff team, ensuring individual needs are met through person-centred planning, etc. We are accredited with St. Luke's Six Steps end-of-life programme and are trained to provide care with peg feeding and dementia.
