What others have to say

Here are just some of the comments we’ve received from family, friends and residents at Sandfields care home.

I visited Jean and Des at Sandfields and we were given such a lovely welcome by the home and both seemed very happy. I am hugely grateful for all your help with them both.

Friend of a resident, November 2023

Mum has settled really well and seems happy and comfortable.  The staff are lovely and are looking after Mum so well and she is enjoying the facilities and weekly activities on offer. Meals and overall cleanliness of the home are to an excellent standard.

Daughter of a resident, October 2023

My mother can be quite difficult, but they try very hard to accommodate that, making sure she's safe, get her into communal areas and get her dressed nicely. 

Relative of a resident, April 2023

I would like to thank everybody who looked after my brother for the last 9 years. It has been great comfort that he has been well looked after.

Relative of a resident, August 2023

I have settled in very well, it was all new to start with, but didn’t take long to learn the ropes. I enjoy the activities and the layout of the gardens.
