What relatives have been saying about us...

I am so very pleased with the way that the staff at Coombe House look after the residents, I doubt if I could find a better place for my mother, if she has any problems the staff do their utmost to help her. As a visitor, I always feel very welcome.

The home is run very much as a family environment and has a wonderful atmosphere. Visitors are welcome at anytime and always offered refreshments and if required an update on the resident's well being. The staff are always professional but also how great affection for the residents. An excellent home from home.
