Dove Court

I would single out Dove Court for the exceptional quality of care, which is warm, attentive, friendly and compassionate. My mother recently died at the home after being a resident for four years and the gentle and loving way she was looked after in her final weeks and days meant so much to my family. My father lives there now and is so well looked after. He drove a car until recently and greatly appreciated the parking space he was given. I would highly recommend Dove Court.

I had my 90th birthday with my family. I had cake and decorations. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I enjoy living at Dove Court. The staff are kind.

Thoughtful, kind, friendly and warm, that's the Dove Court team. They took time and care to find out who my aunt was as a person and what she loved to do. She so enjoyed living there, especially the social side in the beautiful sun room, and the outings to places when she was well enough to go. The art and music sessions were a special highlight as, from childhood, she'd loved to sketch, paint and enjoyed a good song.

As a family member, I always felt welcome as part of the Dove Court community too and loved having an open invitation to join our aunt for lunch or tea. The staff became like family - now my aunt's sadly gone, I'll really miss them though hope to stay in touch somehow. I'd recommend Dove Court to anyone looking for a care home for themselves (as my aunt did, she chose it herself) or for a loved one. Good care homes are hard to find but, at Dove Court, 'care' and 'home' truly are at the heart of what they do. Huge thanks from me, for everything, to the whole team.

I went to visit an old friend at Dove Court (for a firework display), little did I know there would be refreshments for all and all the staff from the manager to the domestic staff were there to greet and help in any way possible. I would like to move in myself.

My room is very nice. You laugh a lot as the staff are very friendly and dutiful. The food (especially curry) is wonderful.

Food very good. Swimming enjoyed. Family visit very good. Staff first class.

Have been amazed at the support and care being offered. My friend has settled so well and after talking about how she is being cared for and the friends she has made. A fantastic care home with fantastic people!

Dove Court is fabulous. The staff are all professional and incredibly caring with a full calendar of activities and lovely wholesome meals provided. It feels like a hotel and I cannot recommend it highly enough.

We have had experience of two care homes in the area but we have never seen such outstanding care as Dove Court.

5 stars.

My great-nan was at Dove Court for nearly 2 years. She thoroughly enjoyed her time there. She made new friends and was able to engage with new people and join new clubs. She enjoyed trips out and family were also invited to join in. I had many roast lunches with her and we were able to arrange a birthday party in the lower floor dining area. I would highly recommend Dove Court, the staff are helpful and nothing is too much trouble.

My grandad has respite care at Dove Court. He had lovely food and was taken out on trips most days. The room he had was very nice and there is a lovely view from the conservatory. The staff are very kind and they looked after him well. They cooked English breakfast for him whenever he wanted and nothing was too much trouble.

Staff very helpful, food is excellent. Room is lovely. I like to chat to the staff. When my family visit, they have tea and biscuits. I am looked after very well.

I have lived at Dove Court for a long time. I have a lovely view from my room and it is never dull.

I am very happy in here. My husband visits daily.

I have the best view in the house where I can see the hills and the sea.

Highly recommend this care home to people if they are looking for a good care home and the food is exciting.

Every time I have visited Dove Court, it has been very clean and tidy. It also smells good (have visited other homes which have smelt horrible). Staff have been very friendly and very efficient. Food looks amazing. There is also lots for residents to do. Singing, wine and cheese and many more. Days out, hairdresser. I would highly recommend this care home, and the way they handled Covid is and was exceptional. Rooms are beautiful.

Wonderful, home from home, nothing is too much trouble. There has always been someone to talk to. The food is delicious and very varied. The staff are very friendly, they are all marvellous. The activities remind me of memories with my husband. I felt uneasy coming here but I had no need, it's home from home and there is nowhere I would rather be now.
