What people say about The Close

StarStarStarStarStar

My mother Margaret has just spent 8 weeks here and I can not praise the amazing team enough. My mum was in the Willows wing due to memory problems. Throughout her stay my sister myself and friends visited and we all noticed how well everyone was looked after. The food was great and the place was always very clean. The activities were good for my mum and really helped getting her back together. The nursing care is very kind respectful and for us was first class. It’s a lovely setting with a courtyard garden and further grounds down to the river so you can walk around the garden. A lovely little cafe so you go for coffee etc with them. It’s a big home with wonderful staff and no matter where we were everyone knew my mother by name and made her feel very welcome. This home in my opinion is outstanding and the staff are a great credit to them. Thank you so much Michael Mclaughlin
