My father enjoyed his time here for a rest. He joined in the activities provided by the team which he enjoyed immensely. He said he felt well provided for and liked the attention he was paid as well as his privacy. I loved the security of the home with restricted access via the front door. Yet freedom for friends and relatives to visit any time of day. He would love to stay again later in the year.
It is always a pleasure to know that our resident enjoyed his time during his stay with us. We are very glad his family also enjoyed their visits. We thank you for your feedback and the team at Valerian Court Care Home look forward to welcoming you all back.

The facilities are 5* and the staff feel like family already. Mum loves her food, which is outstanding.
I couldn't be happier for mum, but also selfishly for myself as I know she's in the best place with the best care.
Thank you for the feedback and confidence in our service. We are delighted that both you and your mother have had a positive experience.
