Such a lovely place, very warm and inviting feeling you get as you walk in the door. The staff are all attentive and really care from the heart. I feel very pleased and I can relax leaving my aunty in their care knowing how well she is being looked after. I cannot thank you enough for the special
care you are providing it is lovely inside and out, the gardens are fantastic.

My mother stayed at Townsend House for short term respite care after hospital. We both found this care home had a friendly welcoming atmosphere, from all of the staff and residents. Mothers' care needs were well supported, enough so to return home.

My experience of visiting my friend and approaching the staff with questions and queries is entirely positive. I have confidence in the care my friend receives.

From the day my mother became a resident the care and dignity with which she was treated has been exceptional. All the staff - carers, nurses, clinical and management have been so kind and truely working for my mother's best interest. This despite her being highly confused, having been admitted on
an emergency basis following an infection. We would recommend Townsend House and its staff.

Friendly dedicated staff working in a very challenging environment. They do a great job.
The staff were always very welcoming and knowledgeable regarding the well being of my mother.
Thank you to everyone there.

My mother was a resident at Townsend House from October 2022. She was always well looked after, and when he mobility declined, she was assigned additional care as required. Mum was treated with respect and dignity, and if she preferred to stay in her room, this was accepted as her wish. There were
activities organised regularly and mum was helped as her hearing made it difficult at times. Staff were always friendly and considerate and provided a 'second family' atmosphere for mum. Thank you.

The last time I saw my friend, when she was still living in her home, she told me that she was waiting to go into a care home as she would never walk again. Having known her for over forty years, I was very sad.
Then I came to see my friend here at the beginning of July, and I could not believe my
eyes. Here she is, charging around with a walking stick, laughing, happy and quite literally, back to her old self. I can't thank the staff here enough for all they are doing for my friend. you have truly performed a miracle.

Once established and aware of the routine asked of residents, a comfort is found amongst the staff and residents one comes across. I always say 'hello' to anyone I see or meet (staff, cleaners, kitchen staff and residents). Doing so makes me feel relaxed and welcome. All staff are attentive - it is
like a place from home - warmth and conversation and importance. I feel relaxed as a resident.

My brother lived here until he passed, he was very well cared for and happy. Along our journey I made friends with other residents and still visited from time to time, it is so nice to see the happiness and care still being given when I walk in. It's always so clean and smells good. Thank you for
taking such good care of my friends.

My husband has dementia. When I collect him from daycare at Townsend House he is animated and happy. He loves all the staff who have taken such good care of him and engaged him in activities that he has enjoyed. My thanks to Townsend House.

My aunt has been in Townsend House for 7 years, was about to go into her eighth year but sadly died on 02/11/2024. She was very happy and really enjoyed her home. Carers have been wonderful along with the other staff. Me and my cousins are so pleased Aunty was happy, thanks to the care she received.
A very good recommendation from us.

Dad had a week's respite. He found the staff and care team friendly and nothing was too much trouble. He enjoyed a couple of baths and one of the care team even played Irish music. Dad enjoyed the food, porridge for breakfast, kitchen staff friendly and chatty. Dad didn't partake in any activities
during his weeks stay. Overall dad enjoyed his week, bit of culture shock as he's very independent and currently lives on his own and cares for himself. His bedroom and ensuite suited him well.

Mum has only been here for a few weeks but she has settled in really quickly. She seems happy and well looked after. Good range of activities, along with hairdresser and podiatrist. Lovely conservatory if there are a lot of visitors. The staff are lovely.
