Mum has only been in Eastbourne House for a short time, but she seems very happy and always mentions how kind all the staff are. As her son, I have total confidence in the level of care she is receiving.

Fantastic service for my parents, lovely, helpful, warm caring staff. One carer couldn't do enough for my parents, and did way and above always there to lend a hand making my parents stay more comfortable. I cant thank the carers enough.

I have stayed at Eastbourne House twice before following hospital admissions. The facilities are excellent and the staff are very caring and attentive. I have found that I have been able to recover in peace and quiet while being taken care of by wonderful staff.
