I could not have found a better care home anywhere for my parents. The staff are like another family. I am the last person who ever wanted my parents in a home, but I am so satisfied that they are being looked after, are safe and loved.

I could not have found a better care home anywhere for my parents. The staff are like another family. I am the last person who ever wanted my parents in a home, but I am so satisfied that they are being looked after, are safe and loved. I said the other day, 'I want to come here when it's my turn'. Can not praise them enough. They would not be with us if it was not for this beautiful care home.
My mother was a resident at Dovedale Court, the staff are very friendly and welcoming she was there for fifteen months before sadly passing away, I was there during the night and the night staff was there for myself and my mom. She was well cared for and treated with dignity.

My mom went to Dovedale in the first lockdown after suffering a stroke. This team that works there are absolutely fantastic. Throughout lockdown, they were in constant contact and at any time I wanted to call for any reason, even to talk to Mom, nothing was a problem. The whole team have worked extremely hard to not only care for residents but keep them entertained due to cancellations of activities etc. The whole team there should be extremely proud of themselves and if and when my time ever comes I have to go into care I hope it's as caring as Dovedale.
We feel my mother's care is good. She is cared for well. She has positive things to say about the staff. She has made good relationships, she enjoys the food and if she doesn't want anything they always make sure something else is offered. Staff have good communication with the family and always...

Dovedale is a very caring home, all the staff are approachable and friendly. We have complete trust that our mom is being treated well and all her needs are being met. Mom always appears happy and contented and under the current circumstances, we couldn't ask for any more.

The care home is generally well maintained and kept clean and tidy. The staff are very friendly and helpful. My father is being looked after well and is treated with dignity. I'm generally happy with the level of care Dad receives.

Thank you for making my mother-in-law comfortable.
Always found the staff to be cheerful and friendly in sometimes difficult times. They look after Mum very well.

Within 2 days of Mom being in there, they have arranged physio for her, this is something she waited weeks for in hospital.
Highly recommend.
