My 91 year-old mother stayed at Bay View House for three week in November 2025 so that I could go on a rest-bite holiday. She experienced excellent care in a friendly supportive environment. Her ground floor room was sufficiently elevated for her to see St Mary's Island. The food was outstanding, I
had three meals there myself and all the staff had clearly developed a good relationship with my mother.
There was some cold weather with snow while my mother was staying there and she said her room was always warm and cosy. Staff helped my mother with her laptop and it was clear from our e-mail exchanges that she had settled in well despite having never before staying in care. For me it was reassuring that she was being so well looked after while I was away.
A constant theme of what she has said about her stay was that it was more like a Country Hotel than what she had expected a care home to be like. Her stay was not cheap but it does seem you get what you pay for.
