The team at Lake View are passionate about enriching the lives of their residents and supporting them to have a very active role to play in how their home is run. There are resident ambassadors, who do everything from showing new residents and their families around their home, to providing feedback at residents’ meetings.
The home is thriving, with so many activities to enjoy, from karaoke, pamper sessions and a knit and natter group, to movie afternoons with popcorn in the home’s cinema, trips out into the community, pub lunches and animal visits.
The local community are embraced into life in the home, from school children who take part in activities, to a community choir, musicians and entertainers who regularly perform for the residents. And the home has its own piano for anyone who fancies some spontaneous music!
Lake View has its own a hair salon, with a mobile hairdresser visiting weekly, as well as a coffee shop for ‘Tea Tuesdays’ and relaxing with loved ones, who are welcome at any time.
The beautiful landscaped gardens have raised planters and wheelchair friendly pathways. This summer the residents have loved growing their own fruit and vegetables from seed in the polytunnel, harvesting their produce for the chef to use in the kitchen, giving them such a sense of achievement.
Mealtimes are another highlight, with home-cooked meals and freshly baked cakes for afternoon tea. In the dining rooms residents enjoy everything from roast dinners with all the trimmings to fish and chip Fridays, plus themed menus for special occasions.
The spacious bedrooms are beautifully furnished and decorated, with walk-in wet room showers.
Loved ones are embraced into life in the home and are welcome at any time. And there is a private family and friends Facebook page, where they can see what the residents have been enjoying doing, even if they can’t be there in person.

Mom stayed for respite care whilst we were on holiday. I was concerned as she was vulnerable but I need not have worried. She has thrived, made new friends and joined in various activities. The staff are wonderful and really care. She will still visit regularly and join in and the staff are sad to see her go. I cannot praise Lake View highly enough. It's a wonderful place with wonderful, caring people. Thank you for everything.
The home is kept clean and tidy and the staff interact with the residents constantly.

She loved her room, although chose to spend her days in the communal lounge and dining area. It was a great relief to us to know that she was so well looked after.
I would be happy to go there myself when the time comes!

My mother has been at the home for 8 weeks. Following a difficult period prior to going to Lake View she is now extremely happy, has regained her confidence and totally loves the home. This has reduced the pressure on my family enormously and it is a delight to visit her.

Thank you for your lovely comments. I am really glad to hear that your mother is settling in so well at Lake View - despite it being a difficult transition at times, care really can enable families to be families again, rather than carers. You are always welcome to visit, so please do stop by at any time! Best wishes, Fae
Mom came to the home in home in July following a fall, they have fitted a falls alarm in her room and also taken delivery of a profile bed since her last fall three weeks ago.

Lake View have been wonderful in looking after my mum. Staff are always kind, caring and very approachable. The home is always clean and tidy and lots of activities go on. The manager is always available if you have any concerns. Lake View - I couldn't ask for better care for my mum.

Overall, very good and very pleased the way my mother is being cared for. Just one small complaint, there is a strong smell of urine in my mother's room.

My Brother-in-law has settled into this care home very quickly. He is obviously very well cared for and is very happy here. The staff are extremely welcoming and friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Almost like being at home!!

I first started at Lake View in 2018, and I am the home's activities coordinator. What I like about the role is that it’s unique and so important. I find it really rewarding, and I love to make a difference to our residents by delivering meaningful activities. No two days are the same; we can go from organising a beach-themed weekend to playing bingo!
