I visit a few times a week and I am always greeted with a smile and offered a cup of tea.
My dad looks forward to the regular performers that attend the vicarage most weeks.
The activity coordinator is excellent and works hard to meet everyone's needs,.
Overall if you are looking for a care home for a family member I would highly recommend the old vicarage.
The kitchen staff offer lots of different options and include the residents when they plan their weekly menus.
Thank you for your lovely review, I'm glad he enjoys the entertainment and the food. I will share your comments with the staff.
