Having recently visited to see my father - I feel very comfortable and confident that he is with excellent carers and with those that care about his needs and wellbeing. It's a difficult time of year when loved ones can't be together - I know his needs are being met, that his welfare is adhered to, and all in all, peace of mind is given to us, his family. Many thanks to all.

My wife is quite happy in the home. Her only complaint is that she has no one to talk as most residents are in various stages of dementia whereas she can converse with most people. She is reasonably happy on her own.

Alban House is a friendly home. The staff and owners really care for my father. I would recommend them without a doubt. My father was in a home prior to this one and I wish I found this one first. They do so many activities which Alzheimer's patients need. Keep up the amazing work to all at Alban House and thank you so much.

The thing that strikes you about Alban House is how happy and inviting the staff are, hartley engage and relate to the residents. with respect, enthusiasm, patience and genuine warmth. There are much humour and laughter within the home and everyone's needs are catered for to the best of the homes sources and abilities. You are encouraged to visit family members whenever and as frequently as you desire, day or night. It is a very open and relaxed home with residents enjoying the company of staff members pets, who frequently spend time in the home. The managers/owners do an amazing job of welcoming new residents and supporting their families with the painful transition of moving a loved one into care. The home itself is beautifully appointed at the top of the hill with far reaching views out over the sea.

My husband has been there for just over five weeks, so I don't know much about the food or activities. I like what I see there is a good atmosphere and home from home. I can't fault it.

My cousin continues to be happy at Alban House. They know their residents so well and know exactly how to deal with each one. As I said last year I don't know how he would have managed without their care and understanding. He can be quite an up and down personality but they can quickly turn him around.

Cannot recommend 'Alban House' highly enough. The care of my wife over the last 5 years has been extremely high. All the carers and management at the home really do go the extra mile in ensuring that all their residents are treated with dignity and respect. They also do individual care and activities dependent on the resident's needs and personality. 'Alban House' is very much home from home. Thank you so much to you all.

Alban House is an incredible place. It has such a happy family atmosphere. The staff are so patient, kind and caring. Each resident is valued and treated with kindness and respect, even the difficult ones!! The care given to my father who has severe dementia has been amazing. We just can't thank the staff and owners enough for all that they do.

I think the food is very good. Everything I need doing is done. Including looking after my pet tortoise who lives here with me as we are a pair. The staff are very nice - all regardless of age. From the owner who is specially kind, good and knowledgeable. Everyone is very helpful.
