My experience dealing with Shinfield View has been exceptional, this was from day one when a member of the team met with myself and the now resident in their home. The care and conditions at Shinfield View are one hundred percent, management and care staff are always pleasant and most helpful when carrying out their respective duties.

From the moment my father moved into Shinfield View in August 2025 during a very challenging time for his health, the care he has received has been nothing short of exceptional. As I don't live nearby, I rely heavily on the team to support his care and wellbeing.
The improvement in him over the past few months has been remarkable. He has gone from rarely engaging to actively participating in daily life, making the most of activities and outings.
What stands out most is the team themselves - kind, compassionate, and genuinely invested in every resident. They take the time to understand the little things that matter, like Dad's love of afternoon tea and fruitcake. Recently he's enjoyed trips out, time in the allotment, and quiz nights, which has made such a difference to his quality of life.
As a family, we have complete peace of mind knowing he is safe, happy, and so well cared for. Thank you to the entire Shinfield View team-we are incredibly grateful.
Thank you for the heartfelt review and for putting your trust in us to care for your father!

Dad has been living here for some time, and our experience has been consistently positive. The staff are kind, patient, and genuinely caring, taking the time to understand him as an individual. They pay close attention to personal likes and dislikes and make a real effort to accommodate them, which brings comfort and familiarity.
There's a wide range of entertainment and activities designed to suit different interests and abilities. Residents are encouraged to join in but never pressured, and the team always makes participation enjoyable.
The staff take health and wellbeing very seriously. When Dad has experienced health difficulties, the team respond with professionalism, calm, and clear expertise, keeping us informed and ensuring he feels safe and supported.
The team at Shinfield View goes the extra mile to make the environment feel like home, and knowing Dad is surrounded by people who genuinely care and show such respect means so much.
Thank you for the kind review! It is our pleasure to care for your father!
Our Mum spent a month at Shinfield View for respite care after a significant increase in her dementia symptoms. We had no prior experience of any form of care provision so this was an intense learning experience for us all. We met with Nadia (manager) before the respite care began and felt hugely...
The other residents are delightful and made such an effort to include Mum. Shinfield View is fabulous.

My mother has been welcomed into the home by the very friendly/dedicated staff and management, which has enabled her to settle into life at the home relatively easily. She has been supported to participate in many of the home's various activities, both internal and external, and it is fantastic to see the many pictures of her enjoying herself, doing things she wouldn't be doing if she was still living in her own home by herself. All in all, the care she receives has given her family and friends the comfort of knowing she is happy and above all safe in her new environment.

Dad came to Shinfield View initially for respite in December 2024, after a fall that left him quite immobile. Dad then became a permanent resident and absolutely loved being here. He became more mobile with a frame and participated in many events that the incredible team put on. Sadly last month he passed away. Dad received treatment in hospital but it wasn't successful so he came back to this lovely home for his final days. I cannot express how grateful we are as a family for all the love and care every member of staff gave him and us. Everything about the home is exemplary, each member of staff from the receptionist, all the carers, the events team and management were amazing and went above and beyond. It is such a wonderful home and I couldn't recommend it more. Thank you for taking so much care of dad.
Thank you for the heartfelt review! It was our pleasure to care for your dad and we all miss him!
After a lengthy stay in hospital following a cardiac arrest, my wife needed a period of Respite Care during April 2025. I researched potential care homes in the area and visited a few. Shinfield View appeared to be a good choice and they were fortunately able to schedule an assessment of my wife...

Sadly my wife's health deteriorated and she required a lot more care, which the staff willingly provided. Sadly my wife passed away in the home on 1st February, and I cannot fault the staffs care from the day that she arrived until her sad passing.
Thank you for your kind words. We are truly honoured to have cared for your wife and are grateful for the trust you placed in us. Our thoughts are with you and your family, and we're glad to have been able to support you during this difficult time. I will be sure to pass your kind words to the whole team.
I'm delighted with the care received for my mother. Staff are lovely and truly caring and approachable. Facilities are great, of special note are the organised events. The property is always clean, food is good.

My dad first went to Shinfield for respite, beginning of September he needed to go in permanently due to his decline with his dementia. The move was smooth and Dad has settled in really well. From management through to all the staff, were so kind and caring and helped all of us navigate this change. Because of the dementia, there have been a lot of ups and downs with my dad's health, communication has been excellent every time. Would definitely recommend this care home, I feel happy that my dad is being looked after well.

We were impressed with Shinfield View from the beginning when the newly appointed Manager and her colleague went to my friend's home at short notice for a pre-assessment. Within two days my friend was welcomed into the home. From our first visit, we always received a warm welcome. The receptionist and carers always had time for us, no matter how busy they were. Shinfield View is a very well-appointed home with a lovely garden and vegetable patch. My friend was a resident on the first floor due to her increasing dementia. The staff were so kind to her, which she herself regularly remarked on. She enjoyed joining in with the activities and thoroughly enjoyed the food which she said was excellent. As her health deteriorated the care of the local GP and nurses and excellent communication with us was always very reassuring. We visited 2 days before my friend died in the home, but were comforted by the fact that she was never left on her own as the end drew near.
Thank you so much for the heartfelt words! We always strive to provide the best care and help our residents live well and thrive each and every day!

Everyone was so kind to him.
Thank you for the kind review, very much appreciated. We loved having Dad here at Shinfield View and we too would like him to move back in permanently as was part of our family here.
Fantastic staff, even if under pressure, still manage to smile, great activities for everyone, everyone will find something they enjoy. Residents are encouraged to join in with activities. Surroundings always look fresh and clean, beautiful gardens to sit out in on a sunny day. My mother-in-law...
Thank you to all the staff for your brilliant and hard work.
Thank you so much, Judy! We love having her here with us! She has settled in so well! Thank you again.
Shinfield View has been caring for my 90-year-old father for the past seven months. The level of care from the entire team during his stay has been outstanding. Dad settled very quickly and happily into the care home and his new surroundings, which, frankly, was a surprise, as throughout most of...
Dad agreed to a one-month respite trial at Shinfield View, and within only a matter of a few days in their care, he had decided he wanted to stay for good and became a permanent resident. The staff are wonderful - he is treated at all times with the utmost care, respect and dignity. I have had no cause for complaint throughout the past seven months, and I would thoroughly recommend Shinfield View to anyone considering placing a loved one in a care home.
Thank you so much; we love having Dad with us! He has truly become part of the Shinfield View family!

Words cannot even express how happy we were to choose Shinfield View for our mother’s final months of her life. With a sudden sad diagnosis, she knew she could no longer live on her own. The staff at Shinfield View embraced her with kindness and compassion beyond being like family. Amazing location, garden, activities, food and a beautiful large room. We were beyond thankful every single day she was there for the comforts and care she received. Weekly varied calendars of events for all levels of abilities, incredible, plentiful, tasty food for all. Such generosity to extend this to visitors and family alike. Carers, staff and admin all going above and beyond day-in-day-out. The end days of my mother’s life were sacred to us, and we were treated with continuous compassion and care around the clock. Truly, couldn’t have asked for anything more. We would highly recommend Shinfield View to anyone lucky enough to consider having their loved one in this beautiful home. My brother and I will forever be grateful.
Thank you so much, Rachel; Mum made such an impact on all of us in her short time with us; she will be forever in our Shinfield Family, along with you guys. See you soon.
