Review from Caroline C (Daughter of Resident) published on 30 April 2020 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
A lovely facility with extremely caring, dedicated staff. I feel that my Dad is treated like a family member and the affection shown is genuine. Because the Home is small, my Dad isn’t a number, as he would be in a larger establishment. I live outside the UK and so it’s not easy to visit regularly but I know that Dad is in safe hands, protected and cared for at all times. Would genuinely recommend the Home to anyone.

Review from Julie W (Niece of Resident) published on 21 May 2019 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
My Aunt is currently a resident here. She has Vascular Dementia and is here on respite while my uncle is in hospital. I couldn't have picked a better place. My Aunt has a lovely single room, very cosy with a TV and lots of little personal touches. The staff are amazing and clearly like the residents. They are always happy to chat and answer any questions. There are activities to keep the residents engaged and they really seem to understand the needs of dementia patients.

We rate most services according to how safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led they are, using four levels:
- Outstanding - The service is performing exceptionally well.
- Good - The service is performing well and meeting our expectations.
- Requires Improvement - The service isn't performing as well as it should and we have told the service how it must improve.
- Inadequate - The service is performing badly and we've taken action against the person or organisation that runs it.
- Not rated - we have not yet rated this area of the service, this is normally because the assessments we have carried out have been focused on other key questions.
