As a retired carer having worked in two care homes and private, also, having visited several different care homes I can honestly say Lime Court is one of the best.
It's a home-from-home, with staff doing their very best to care and entertain the residents. As a volunteer, I'm very happy to be a small part of this lovely place.
A wonderful care home.
Kind, caring, friendly and always welcoming.
Lime Court is a wonderful care home. The staff are professional, kind, caring, friendly and always welcoming. Visiting is straightforward - flexible with dates, never a problem parking, and a staff member available to welcome us. Our dog was welcome, too! The rooms and common areas are spotlessly clean and very well maintained. The care they provided to my step-mother in her final years was simply outstanding.
