Combe Hay Reviews (1)
Over all time Combe Hay has 1 review.
Combe Hay Residential Home for the Elderly offers a home from home for anyone who cannot stay in their own home, especially following the loss of a loved one. My mum now gets first-class care, medication, meals, laundry and most importantly, company. She can have her own furniture so she feels at home with unlimited visitors who can also eat meals with her (for a small fee) and I can say that the food is excellent, having tried it many times. I feel sure that her latter years will now be in a happy, comfortable place.
