Our experience of our dad's stay at River Court in Watford has been very positive. Any initial problems were promptly addressed. The service and care to attention was excellent. I have found all the staff to be both very polite and friendly. The management team of Owai & Cynthia have been first class.
Always very responsive to any requests. Very prompt & professional.

The staff at River Court Care Home are lovely. They treated my mother in law who died 2 weeks ago. My mother in law loved all of the staff and especially had a soft spot for Prabhu and Jair. I wish I could remember the other staff's name. Thank you all for looked after my mother in law so well in her

My dad has been living at Chess House for several years now, and I can honestly say it has been the best possible place for him. From the very beginning, the care and kindness shown by everyone has been exceptional. Under Maggie's thoughtful and compassionate leadership, the carers go above and beyond
every single day.
What makes Chess House so special is not just the professional care, but the warmth and genuine affection the staff show. They treat my dad like family, and they have taken the time to get to know all of us too - they know every member of our family by name, and that personal touch means the world. Whenever I visit, I feel welcomed, included, and reassured that my dad is surrounded by people who truly care about. It gives me so much peace of mind to know he is safe, comfortable, and valued in such a loving environment.
I would recommend Chess House wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a place where their loved one will be looked after with dignity and respect.

River Court is a beautiful home with loving and caring staff. My mum gets taken on lots of day trips and gets to socialise within the community.
The food is tasty and well presented. My mum is happy at River Court.
