Reviews
The home is spotlessly clean, homecooked food, her room has everything she needs and the care is outstanding. The staff are so lovely and listen to everything you have to say.
Debra B(Daughter of Resident)
The staff here are very professional and everyone of them are friendly and treat my father with respect. I'm grateful for their hard work and everywhere in the place is very clean with lovely decorations. Very kind and welcoming to me as a visitor. Thank you.
Tara H(Daughter of Resident)
I know they are both being cared for by the amazing staff at Longview. I can already see a difference in them both, mum walking around more, and my sister being more independent and doing her own thing - always with the carers around. Staff involve them both in the activities and days out.
Bonnie B(Daughter of Resident)
"All the team are amazing, they are caring and attentive and the atmosphere is great.
The home is bright and cheerful and residents are given the choice of how they spend their days. I am delighted with every aspect of Longview and feel fortunate that my Mum has spent the last few years in their care.

K C(Daughter of Resident)
