Can heaven be better than this place? I doubt it. What a wonderful place, in a beautiful setting. The care is first-class, the staff are great and attend to everyone's needs. The facilities are exceptional, particularly the spa bath. What can I say about the food? Fine dining at its best, the two chefs work wonders every day. The ambience of Barchester Highfield Care Home is spectacular. I have no hesitation in recommending it.
