Customer reviews

I would like to say a huge thank you to you and all your staff. They have been wonderful to my Auntie, I know they all work extremely hard and have given love and attention to Auntie. She used to tell me how much she loved you all because you looked after her so well and she loved her room, it was the best room in the home. You all deserve a medal, I certainly had a weight lifted from my shoulders the day she came to you. Once again thank you all.

Muriel - May 2018

Thank you all for everything you did for my uncle. I believe you provided the best care for him in his final years. The way you compassionately dealt with his problems is really appreciated. I am so glad that he was able to experience that semi-independent living at Ashcroft and we will be forever grateful for this dignity that Eddie was able to experience.
