What a excellent home,had to look for a home for my mother tried several home just walked in and straight out no atmosphere or warm feeling,went to the vicarage as soon as you opened the door you could feel the warmth and loving atmosphere had a tour and my mind was made up this was the place,the staff all were Angels had plenty of time and affection for all the residents ,dignity was kept at all times.although there was set menus if a person did not like that meal an alternative was made also people could eat to a time that suited them and could choose where they ate eg dining room,lounge,in their
