Overall the service is very good. The activities. staff are excellent. The kitchen staff are excellent and provide lovely tasty food. The cleaners also do an amazing job. Most of the carers are also excellent but there are a few who are maybe be in the wrong job.

My husbands care is generally very good, My only grumble would be that he often has no underwear. Today he has only one pair of pants in his room, having supplied several dozen pairs, I think this is not a good situation!

Firstly, the accommodation is very good. My husband receives super care at La Fontana. The staff are so friendly and helpful towards him, and towards me when I visit three times a week, so i regularly see what is going on. He receives only minor medical treatment as needed and weekly visits from the surgery ensure that any concerns are addressed. There is a range of activities, even though he rarely takes part. and he is encouraged to participate.

My mother-in-law has been at La Fontana since 2019. The staff take very good care of her and have a very good understanding of dementia and behaviours associated with it. The staff are friendly with mum and visitors. They contact us if anything has changed or need permission for vaccines, etc

My mother-in-law came to stay at La Fontana a couple of years ago, she stayed in a lovely en-suite room that over looked lovely gardens where we took walks in good weather. From day one the staff were wonderful, kind caring and so compassionate, they always greeted with a smile. In the last weeks that my mother-in-law was with us she was cared for with such love and tenderness. Thank you to all the staff at La Fontana.

Mum spent two and a half years in La Fontana. She was so well looked after by everyone. She was treated with dignity, compassion, nothing was too much trouble. The care and love that was given to her in her last days was unbelievable and very humbling. Everyone was amazing. Thanks to you all.

I had been visiting my mum regularly at La Fontana Care Home for two and a half years until her recent passing. Each time I visited the management and staff were always welcoming, approachable and friendly. Mum's care was first class, she was always treated with respect and kindness. I cannot thank the staff enough for their dedication and the care provided to my mum, as well as the support and empathy shown to our family.

Just wanted to say how pleased we are with La Fontana. The staff (too many to mention) are amazing. The management and nurse team make the home such as great place for my dad. Thank you all. I cannot recommend highly enough. Brilliant.

From the moment I walked into the reception at La Fontana, I felt cared for. The receptionist provides a warm welcome, which spreads throughout the whole building. My incle's bright stay in a large, well-equipped en-suite corner room overlooking the surrounding beautiful countryside was an experience our family will treasure. La Fontana is a stunning building filled with compassionate, hardworking and dedicated staff. Every time our family visited, my uncle was being well cared for, his carers always made time to speak and in the end, went above and beyond to comfort and support us. Thank you, La Fontana.

Overall the staff and management of La Fontana are very helpful. The level of care is excellent and they do what they can to help with a smile and pleasant attitude. When there are particular times of difficulty, medical need/emergency they are very thorough and understand extremely well the regulations and laws protecting both resident and family wishes (as in power of attorney). We cannot thank the management and staff enough for being so kind and welcoming, always willing to help when there are particular issues, willing to listen, understand and empathise. If there is anything we would change it's the language barrier from some staff but know all have a reasonable level of English.

I cannot speak highly enough of all the care that my husband the resident is receiving at La Fontana. The care and concern is also extended to us as a family. I cannot think of anywhere else I would wish my husband to be cared for.

Amazing care home, very happy having found this gem. All staff are so friendly and attentive, nothing too much trouble. My father enjoys the interactions between residents and staff. I can go home knowing he's in safe hands.

My mother was very challenging on her arrival. She is now very calm, smiles and laughs. We have very good visits. She is happy. Staff are courteous and friendly.

5 months ago my husband, who was bedridden with severe dementia, went to La Fontana for a month's respite care. It was soon evident that he was receiving excellent care and seemed happy, so he became a permanent resident. He was unable to make use of all the facilities but we had every confidence in the care he received. He was monitored regularly and the staff were friendly, caring and attentive. They were always helpful and communicative. His room was very pleasant opening directly onto the gardens while the layout of the building means there are no stairs, lifts or long corridors which makes for a much more integrated and effective care system.

My mother has been at La Fontana for more than three years. During her time there she has been looked after with sensitivity, care and compassion. Staff always take her individual needs into account and this is evident in her relaxed and happy attitude towards them. As a family we feel lucky and confident in entrusting her care to this establishmnet.

My husband has resided at La Fontana for the past 3 1/2 years and during this time he has been treated with nothing but kindness and respect. The care he receives is second to none. The staff are amazing and have endless patience with all the challenging behaviour. Nothing is too much trouble for them. I am always made to feel very welcome when visiting and could not have made a better choice in choosing a care home for my husband. It is just like one big happy family.
