About Us
Who We Are Proudly Family-Run Since 1975
Aronel Cottage has been caring for older adults in Bognor Regis for nearly five decades. As a family-run nursing home with qualified nurses on-site around the clock, we combine clinical expertise with a homely, welcoming environment. Our aim is simple: to be recognised as the leading family-run nursing home in Bognor Regis.
Once a private school, our building has been extensively upgraded and adapted for modern care, while still keeping its character. With a registration for 38 residents, the home is set in beautiful south-facing gardens within a peaceful cul-de-sac close to the town centre, parks, and public transport.


Private spaces, sunny views, and modern care-ready rooms Comfortable Accommodation
Our bright, extended lounge and dining area faces south and west, with large windows that bring in sunlight throughout the day. With plenty of nooks for privacy and space for companionship, it’s an inviting place to relax.
We offer 34 single rooms and 2 twin rooms, many refurbished and 19 with en-suite bathrooms. Each is tastefully decorated and designed for comfort, equipped with everything you’d expect from a modern hotel room, plus additional safety features for nursing care.
Personalised care in a welcoming and secure environment A Home that Respects Independence
As a general nursing home, we care for residents with a wide range of needs but do not accommodate severe mental health or EMI cases. We are not a closed unit, and our front door is never locked, ensuring freedom and independence for our residents.
Residents are free to bring personal items, small furniture, TVs, and radios to make their space feel familiar. Staff are trained to respect privacy at all times. Digital TV aerials are installed throughout, and TV licences are free.
Our home has long-standing connections with local community groups, churches, and clubs, helping residents stay connected to the wider community.
Please note: Aronel Cottage operates a no smoking and no pets policy.


Housekeeping Excellence
Denisa, our full-time Housekeeper, leads a team dedicated to cleanliness, laundry, and general upkeep. We believe in the “one person, one job” approach, which reduces issues with laundry loss or damage. A small clothing repair service is available if needed.
Many visitors notice the home’s fresh, odour-free environment – a credit to our housekeeping team.
