"My father has been at Leawood Manor for 5 years, and it is an excellent care home. The staff are friendly, it is spotlessly clean and the food is excellent. They have an activities coordinator who works extremely hard to keep the residents happy and mobile.I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for care for themselves or a loved one."

I am absolutely over the moon with this care home. All the staff go above and beyond for my mum and she does not make it easy at times for them. She loves all the staff. The food she says is amazing. Every time I go there is laughter and fun. I can't rate this care home highly enough.

My father has only been in Redbond Lodge for almost three weeks but in that short time he is settling in really well. This is thanks to all the staff who have been so kind and caring in helping him. It is peace of mind for our family to know that he is being so well cared for and looked after. On visiting, we are always made to feel very welcome. His personal care is excellent and he has a lovely room that is kept clean and tidy as are all other areas of home.

" The team at Heron Court are so kind to my mum and always make it fun for the residents. My mum went on a trip to a Tea Dance last week and has been out for lunch today. The staff are very welcoming and it has a very homely feel as you walk through the door. The activities in house are great - Bingo, exercise, etc. Thank you to everyone at Heron Court for their continued hard work!"
