My parents came to Canterbury House 3 years ago and at first were really happy. Things went downhill when they were first taken over. Lots of staff left. Since the new owner has taken over it is back to being a wonderful home. You have amazing staff from the top to the bottom. Please look after them. My parents were really happy, well looked after and I knew they had the best care, as did I.

As I entered Canterbury House I was greeted by happy, welcoming staff who offered to show me to where my friend was sitting.
As I walked through the home I could hear staff and residents talking and laughing. The home had a great atmosphere and is very much a home from home.
I decided to stay for lunch and was offered a choice from the menu. The food was amazing, in fact, I would go as far as saying it’s outstanding.
All the staff are brilliant and would go above and beyond to help me and my friend.
Canterbury House is a beautiful care home and I wouldn’t recommend anywhere else.
I am very happy here, I like the food, I like the people and it's a joy to be here! I'd come back again!
