The care home is very clean, rooms are very nice, staff are very friendly and approachable and always willing to help with any queries we have. The food is good too (tried on several occasions when visiting my mum!)

My sister and I were looking for respite for my Mum in Dec 2018. We didn't know but she had developed dementia. We went to Dearne Valley and the manager was great. She visited our mother at home and offered her respite (initially) she was lovely, and at that time we were desperate and wanted our lovely mum looked after. The manager offered reassurance and kindness. I will always remember that.
Very friendly environment, always welcoming. Nice clean home.

My father has been in full residency only a few weeks but the care has been very good across all aspects ie staff, catering. They are all very caring and understanding of the needs of my father, especially in welcoming him to the home and getting him settled.
