We could not have chosen a safer home form our mother, especially now during the covid-19 pandemic. I feel the staff have gone above and beyond to keep all residents and themselves safe and well.
It feels like one big family home. The staff are very kind and caring to residents and family alike. Personal and medical needs are carried out efficiently. Rooms, communal areas and food are clean and of a good standard.

The staff allowed me to use their personal iPads to video and see Mum, which makes such a difference in lockdown. Mum always looks happy and smiling with a story to tell about a picnic or afternoon tea they have had, which is very reassuring for family members.
