Overall Experience
An amazing place. Clean, fresh, bright and overall of a high quality. The staff are all very caring and professional. I cannot recommend this place highly enough. A well run, welcoming home where nothing is too much trouble for anyone. I cannot find fault. I only hope that if my turn comes where I need nursing care that Lonsdale at St Georges will still be there and as good as it is today.
Thank you especially to the manager who was so welcoming, the lovely lady on the desk who always has a cheery hello and a smile when you come in.
