What people say about St Peter's House

The staff were beyond amazing. The receptionist is beautiful and makes you feel so at ease, she is always happy to help with anything. The staff inside the care home go out of their way to make the residents feel loved and cared about. I witnessed so much of that whilst I was there. A care home is so much more than statistics and reviews. When your mind is fragile the moments matter and are precious. You have a beautiful care home filled with love and laughter.

Lynda Stanford (Granddaughter of Resident)

St Peter's House is a wonderful care home. My mother, who had Alzheimer's, was looked after sensitively and with great kindness and respect during the time she lived there.

Anna B (Daughter of Resident)

Our mum was at St Peter's for 5 years and the care she received was outstanding. So kind and loving towards our mum. From the day she came to the end of her life.

Jenny (Daughter of Resident)

We are extremely grateful for the wonderful and constant cheerfulness and kindness you showed towards Dad, and even more so in view of the fact that the strange times have made your job so much more difficult.

Christine Laffargue and Peter Tebbit (Relatives of Resident)

All the people who work there are kind, caring, hardworking and professional. The kitchen provides excellent meals and residents can choose what and when they eat and drink.

Anna B (Daughter of Resident)

I wanted to thank you all for your kindness and care for my Mother during the nearly 2.5 years she was at St Peter's House. I have never been at a care home that has such a dedicated team – everyone – care, domestic and catering, really cares about your residents. Thank you.

Caroline Jones (Relative of Resident)

Would recommend St Peter's very highly, our mum was very happy there.

Jenny (Daughter of Resident)

There are lots of well-planned activities organised including trips, musical events and arts and crafts. The end of life care is compassionate and dignified. I would not hesitate to recommend St Peters to anyone looking for a good quality care home.

Anna B (Daughter of Resident)

It was a huge comfort to us to know how well looked-after Dad was and we are sure that his last months were as happy as they could possibly have been. Our sincere thanks and best wishes to you all.

Christine Laffargue and Peter Tebbit (Relatives of Resident)

We cannot thank you enough for all the care and kindness you have showed our Mum during her final years spent with you at St Peters. You always cared with compassion.

Trevor, Mary and families (Relatives of Resident)

🤠 YEEEEE-HAAAAWWW 🤠

Tuesday we took a trip to the Wild Wild West! 🌟

We had the wonderful Caprice Music Duo performing a county and western show for us 👏

This month for our Bon Voyage club we are travelling to the USA 🇺🇸 So this was a perfect afternoon to imagine we were in the heart of Texas!

We dressed up, sang along and had a little boogie to those brilliant country hits we all know and love 🐴

Thank you Caprice 🥰

🐾 Vera 🐾

Look at this beauty who came to visit us today 🥹🥰

Vera is a Romanian Shepherd dog and we had the pleasure of meeting her and Emily today 😁

Vera is 12 and a sweet, soft, relaxed girl! Rescued by the lovely Emily.

She brought many smiles to our residents as she said hello, and had a few treats 🦴

I’m sure ‘we’ll meet again’ Vera 🐶
