I cannot pr… Read moreaise Canterbury Home enough at such a difficult time.

Canterbury House have cared for my Mother-in-law for 3 years, and in all this time she has been treated with respect and dignity by all of the staff. She turns 100 years young in July, and on a recent visit, we were approached by management who informed us they have booked her favourite singer for her special day. They also arranged a meeting the t… Read morehe chef manager to discuss catering needs for her special day. This goes way beyond our expectations, and we couldn't thank Canterbury House for going above and beyond to make her day so special. We know she is loved and cared for, and couldn't wish for a better care home. All the staff are amazing!

The staff are wonderful and helpful. I enjoy all the different activities. I really enjoy the grounds at Canterbury House and sitting in the sunshine! I feel safe and well looked after. My bedroom is very comfortable and I like the wet room. I've not slept so well in years. Thank you to all the staff and residents for making me feel welcome.

Excellent care and service provided to my father (resident) when he stopped breathing and was admitted to hospital. All staff are so friendly and willing to assist my father.

My aunt has been there for 5 years. It has been a roller coaster course with good and not so good times. Many changes of management and staff and at times periods of inferior care and support.

It has become a far more welcoming place. There were times in the past when we really didn't enjoy visiting. There is a great activity programme and the residents have been empowered to decide what they want or don't want. The staff are so good dealing with my aunt and all her foibles and I do believe she is a lot happier. We have been very impressed and I can honestly say it is all down to the current management. I think some of the internal fabric needs a little updating, my aunts room could do with a lick of paint, needed since she moved in! Bathroom very compact for the cost! Somehow the staff manage, not easy! Communal rooms are great.

Within moments of entering Canterbury House I knew our dear mum would be in safe hands. The atmosphere is welcoming; the staff are friendly, polite and more than happy to help in any way they can. The kindness and care they show to their residents is exemplary. No one really wants their parent or loved one to go into a care home but if you find … Read moreyourself in a similar to position to ours and there is no other option, you could not do better than visit Canterbury House and the wonderful team of staff there. The facilities are great, the home is decorated throughout to a very high standard and the food is yum! I can't thank Canterbury House enough for taking so much of the stress and worry away from what could have been a very worrying time for us all as mum made her transition to her new home. Thank you so much!

My father has been very well looked after, fed, and watered, the staff are excellent with him and look after him. The food is of a very high standard. I wouldn't have him anywhere else.
