Get directionsI have found Shinfield View to be amazing. All the staff have been most helpful and will go over and above. The entertainment was marvellous with all the staff joining in. My family have been made to feel welcome as well. I may look to the future to retire here in Shinfield View. I shall certainly come for coffee mornings and other entertainment in the future as I feel I have friends here now. My short stay here in this lovely home has been really lovely.

It was great having your father here and he is always welcome anytime.
My granddad moved to Shinfield View a month ago and I can already see an incredible difference in how he is cared for compared to where he was before. One of the best things is that there is always loads going on for the residents to interact with and families are always welcome. The food is amazing and there is a really positive atmosphere when I visit.

Thank you for your great feedback I will pass it onto the staff.
I came here just a month ago after a most unhappy experience elsewhere and found things just as I expected. From the manager down to the staff were courteous and welcoming. Everything was done with a smile, nothing was any trouble and they are all helping me with my problems 100%. The accommodation is excellent and cannot fault anything.

Thank you Gladys I am glad we have been able to help you the staff will appreciate your comments.
The building and furnishings give the appearance of a modern high-quality hotel. The staff at all levels could not be any more helpful, always willing to do that little bit extra. The many and varied activities keep residents entertained and involved, as well as their brains active. The all- inclusive policy is also very welcome.

Thank you for your positive feedback.
Shinfield View is a beautiful residential home. It is a pleasure to visit my mother in such a light, bright and luxuriously furnished property. The food is fabulous and the chef is really friendly and interested in nutritious food. The staff and carers are wonderful and so patient with the elderly residents. The activities are fun and keep everyone included. They also have 2 levels for dementia patients, forgetfulness is one area and heavily dementia is another.

We love having your mother here and I am pleased you are happy with your choice.
Extremely impressed with the facilities and the level of care that is provided at Shinfield View. My mother is settling in very well and has made lots of friends. I am so pleased and relieved that my mum is comfortable and content and enjoys all the activities that are provided at Shinfield View.
Business response:
We are glad your mother has settled as well and we enjoy having her here.
My Gramps finally decided that he needed some respite care and we have found this truly amazing place. He moved in today for a couple of weeks, and the difference in him in just a couple of hours was quite remarkable. We've not seen him smile or want to eat a proper meal for some time, and both he achieved today. The kindness shown to him, my parents, and us (granddaughter & husband) has been just wonderful. Shinfield View resembles a 5 star hotel rather than a care home, staff are friendly, compassionate, and treat every... read more

I'm glad we could make the difference and your Gramps is a lovely man and a pleasure to look after.
I joined my wife who has dementia (vascular/Alzheimer's) to see how she would cope with specialised residential care. This was a short 3 day taster so far she has coped with being in a separate secure unit. She relates very well to all the staff and was not distressed by my absence overnight thanks to the excellent night staff she has enjoyed the extra facilities manicure/reflexology and music/dance afternoon.

Thank you for your kind review
Shinfield View is hugely better than any other care option I could find for my father! The building and facilities are stunning, but more importantly the staff are kind, friendly, enthusiastic and always willing to try and understand and respond to every need. The whole ethos of the home respects residents as individuals, there is a fantastic range of activities, including social evenings (to which not just residents and family, but staff and community are invited), outstanding food, plenty of drinks and snacks at any time, ... read more
