WORK to extend Resthaven Nursing Home has begun thanks to a successful planning application.
The new extension will comprise seven bedrooms with en suite wet rooms of which three rooms will be on the ground floor, with their own patio area, and the other four on the first floor. It will adjoin the west side of the building.
In addition to the new rooms there will be a new nurse centre.
It is expected that the extension will be completed by June 2015. Designed by Gloucester architects, Astam it will give Resthaven a total of 43 rooms.
