Overall Experience
Overall standard very good. I could be in a place where I was frightened. I like all of the staff because I can talk to them. There is nothing wrong with the room I am in. I've been given great food all the way along.
Everything is nice and clean.

Overall Experience
I have no problems at all. Staff very friendly and are always available when required. I ask my friend on a regular basis if she is happy staying here and she always says 'very, very happy'.
The meals look very nice, tea and coffee served every morning on time.

Review from Tony L (Husband of Resident) published on 29 October 2018 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
The resident is very clean and well appointed. Staff (majority) are friendly and accommodating. Food looks very good and fresh. Appears to have variety. The number of residents are just about right for me and creates a friendly family atmosphere, not always found in larger homes.

The staff and people in here at the present time I found to be very friendly and helpful. They seem to look for a way to look for any way to look after not only residents but relatives as well. I found it to be very clean and tidy.
