Here are just some of the comments we’ve received from family, friends and residents at Bowes House care home.

The menu is varied and the food is nutritious and tasty. I've eaten there a couple of times myself and was impressed! They cater for special dietary requirements and if the residents want something that is not on the menu they do their best to provide it for them.

Relative of a resident, March 2024

The care staff understand my loved one's needs. They respect her limitations, whilst still encouraging her to be self-sufficient as much as she can.

Relative of a resident, March 2024

It's a bright and inviting environment and they maintain a lovely, happy atmosphere... when you walk in you feel so welcome and at home.

Relative of a resident, March 2024
