We help maintain daily routines while giving families and carers the time they need. It might be just what you need to keep life on track and feel supported. We’re here and ready whenever you need us.

“My advice to other families if they’re looking for STR for their highly special needs children, is to be confident in sending them to Myranth. From my experience, they’ll be very well looked after, and they’ll be very happy with their time there.”

Coral – Carer

“When I’m at Myranth house, I love being here because I get to have time away from my parents. I get to have meals cooked for me, I get people to do my washing, it’s awesome! You know what, I get to do so much, I get to have fun!”

Kimmy, Myranth Guest

“The staff here genuinely do enjoy the clients, they have a good relationship, especially if it’s a regular thing happening. I think that’s really important. If you need a respite break, just do it. It’s a win, win for everyone.”

Maxine, Carer

“The house is comforting and warm… the staff really make the stay.”

Claire, Myranth Guest

“I think when a lot of people are looking to book Short Term Respite (STR), a lot of people are worried that it’s going to be clinical, and that’s not the case here. This is a very homely place and we’re quite relaxed. We want you to feel like you’re at home here in Myranth.”
