We have been using The Gatehouse for respite day care for over a year now and it's been a lifesaver. When we go on holiday we all have a total break and I never worry about Mum while we are away. They have been very good with Mum's complex health needs and very accommodating. I love the fact that one day they were having a bbq and they called us and invited us for the day. I would highly recommend The Gatehouse.
