Saltwood Care Centre provides high quality nursing care in a warm, friendly and welcoming envionment located on Tanners Hill, Hythe which is just a short walk to Hythe High Street. Originally built over 100 years ago as a convalescent home for London Transport staff, the building has been much improved and extended to now provide 66 single bedrooms, most of which have en-suite facilities. There are three lounges, two of which overlook the gardens and enjoy views out to sea.
