Get directionsI spent 2 weeks at Shinfield View following surgery to remove a kidney. After 2 visits to familiarise myself with the setting I was confident that I had chosen the right place for my post operative care and recovery. My expectations were surpassed. I had a lovely spacious room with an outlook to the garden and a door which allowed me access to the garden. The staff were excellent. They were attentive,friendly,caring and efficient. The whole atmosphere was supportive and I felt at home very quickly. I had several visitors who... read more

My Mum came home happy and full of praise after a lovely stay at Shinfield View, she was well looked after and enjoyed the company and care provided. She was in the perfect room for her with garden view and comfortable furnishings. We will be back, we all benefited from the break knowing she was safe and having lots of social interaction.

Dad came to Shinfield View initially for respite in December 2024, after a fall that left him quite immobile. Dad then became a permanent resident and absolutely loved being here. He became more mobile with a frame and participated in many events that the incredible team put on. Sadly last month he passed away. Dad received treatment in hospital but it wasn't successful so he came back to this lovely home for his final days. I cannot express how grateful we are as a family for all the love and care every member of staff gave... read more

My mother has been welcomed into the home by the very friendly/dedicated staff and management, which has enabled her to settle into life at the home relatively easily. She has been supported to participate in many of the home's various activities, both internal and external, and it is fantastic to see the many pictures of her enjoying herself, doing things she wouldn't be doing if she was still living in her own home by herself. All in all, the care she receives has given her family and friends the comfort of knowing she is ... read more
After a lengthy stay in hospital following a cardiac arrest, my wife needed a period of Respite Care during April 2025. I researched potential care homes in the area and visited a few. Shinfield View appeared to be a good choice and they were fortunately able to schedule an assessment of my wife within a short period of time. My wife has now completed her Respite Care and is now back at home in a much improved condition compared to when she went into Shinfield View, both physically and mentally. This improvement has been imm... read more

Thank you for the heartfelt feedback. It was please to support you and your wife.
My wife went into Shinfield View in November 2024, and from the first day I could see that the carers were kind, considerate and understanding. My wife was resident on first floor due to her Dementia diagnosis. My wife settled in well and enjoyed the food and activities. I and members of the family visited regularly and we were always made welcome and kept informed of my wife's wellbeing and activities. One highlight was being able to have lunch in the Bistro with my wife whenever we wished, which she really enjoyed. As time... read more

Thank you so much for the heartfelt feedback and for leaving us the review!
My dad first went to Shinfield for respite, beginning of September he needed to go in permanently due to his decline with his dementia. The move was smooth and Dad has settled in really well. From management through to all the staff, were so kind and caring and helped all of us navigate this change. Because of the dementia, there have been a lot of ups and downs with my dad's health, communication has been excellent every time. Would definitely recommend this care home, I feel happy that my dad is being looked after well.
Business response:
