I cannot praise Burford House enough. My husband was not well enough to go home from hospital, and the staff at Burford House took my telephone call, arranged an assessment, organised the transport & medication and had him installed in a lovely room within 24 hours. Everything was done for him to make him feel comfortable and the staff were all incredible and so friendly. The food is delicious, and every care is taken to treat each resident individually. Visitors also are welcomed, and greeted warmly, and supported throughout. Top marks!

I had superb care from the staff at Burford House, the day to day dedication and kindness they endeavoured to provide could not be faulted. The welcome committee and medical staff deserve special mention. I had a slight problem with the timing of meals, I felt supper was far too early, it left a large period of time between the evening meal and breakfast. I gather it was a staffing issue. I would use this facility again.
Thank you for your lovely feedback. We're delighted that you received such kind and dedicated care at Burford House. We also appreciate your comments about mealtimes and will share these with the team. We look forward to welcoming you back.
My worries about her comfort and wellbeing were banished by the superlative work.

My neighbour had a major incident and went to hospital. From here he went to Burford House for respite. At first he was uneasy but soon decided that he needed to stay. The care, friendly staff and food convinced him that this was the place for him.
