Porthcawl dementia care home sold for first time in 36 years

Pinehurst Rest Home, a boutique residential dementia care home in Porthcawl, has been sold for the first time in its 36-year history.

The home, which is registered for up to 11 residents, was established in 1989 by Patricia Attwood and passed to her daughter, Alexandra Crane, in 2004. Ms Crane has now decided to sell the business and retire.

Following a confidential sales process, the home has been sold to Mani Neelamegan and Dr Muthuvairavan, an experienced operator with two other homes in South Wales, Manorleigh House and Fairleigh House.

Alexandra Crane, the former owner, said: “I am incredibly proud to have followed in my mum’s footsteps and continued her legacy of compassion, respect, dedication, and commitment to every resident who has lived here. I am confident that the new owners are equally committed to ensuring the home continues to thrive, while preserving the small, homely environment that has always made Pinehurst special.”

New owner Mani Neelamegan commented: “We are absolutely delighted to welcome Pinehurst Rest Home into our family of care homes. Pinehurst has a strong reputation within the Porthcawl community, and we are committed to building on the excellent foundations already in place. Our focus has always been on providing compassionate, person-centred care in a safe and homely environment.”

The sale was handled by specialist business property adviser Christie & Co, with funding sourced through Christie Finance. The sale price was undisclosed.
