Overall Experience
My mother has been living at The Croft for several months now. The staff are brilliant, very understanding, caring and supportive. They do their very best for my mother and she has thrived so much living in The Croft.
My mother loves the food provided. Meals are of a high standard and prepared daily. I have been able to enjoy lots of quality time with my mother which is fantastic. The Croft look after her and her needs exceptionally well. She loves living at The Croft. The home is cleaned to a high standard and the day to day caring of all residents is lovely to see.

Thank you for all you do for the residents, it is appreciated and I am very grateful to all staff for looking after my mother. The atmosphere is always cheerful, laughter and smiles from both staff and residents. You all do a brilliant job and you allow people like me to know my mother is happy, safe and well looked after, I am so pleased she is in your care. From the bottom of my heart - Thank you so much indeed.

Review from Alyson L (Daughter of Resident) published on 1 September 2022 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Having visited my father regularly when up from Worcestershire, I would like to say how caring and understanding all the staff are when clearly so busy, supporting my family in addition to doing their best for dad. I and mum have noted that the food is of such a high standard with meals prepared from fresh ingredients daily. We were treated to a little lunch on Friday, the ham pie and beef were so tender and absolutely delicious. Thank you to the chef for your wonderful cooking and also to your colleagues in the kitchen on other days. A big thank you to all staff who work so hard. So, so much appreciated.
