Get directionsShinfield View was the perfect home for Mum to spend her last five weeks in. She loved the location and the ability to still share coffee and chat with her friends and family. Above all, the great facilities and events, the staff and the people at Shinfield View are what make it so special. From the receptionist to the carers, the ladies in charge, the cleaners, cooks, singers and event coordinators - everyone who works at Shinfield View cares for the residents and has a calling and passion for what they do. Thank you all fo... read more

Thank you, Paul; she was such a lovely lady, and we loved having her with us - just wish it was for longer! Take care and see you soon.
My father was very well looked after, and the staff were very kind and helpful. He was encouraged to take part in the activities and not remain in his room. He went home looking very well cared for. He was on respite for two weeks.
Business response:
Thank you so much, Helen, for your kind words about your father's stay here at Shinfield View. We loved meeting him and taking care of him; it was our pleasure. We wish all of you the very best!
What a wonderful place Shinfield View is. It is spotless and so beautifully furnished. The staff are also amazing. But this doesn't take away the fact that all the staff are friendly, kind and passionate about how they care for your loved one and their relatives. Our mum moved here in March 2023, but unfortunately, only had four weeks here before she passed away. She died at the home, and we were all there with her. The staff through the night looked after Mum right until the end and opened up a room for us to take a break, ... read more
A wonderful, friendly home, like a five-star hotel for the elderly. Good continuity of staff - sone for over six years. All staff are lovely, showing care, empathy and understanding for both residents and their families. Residents are encouraged to take part in the varied activity program, including exercise classes, chair practice, trips out etc. They keep an eye on the resident's dietary requirements and intake. They take photos for Facebook to keep loved ones updated. Fun and happy atmosphere throughout. We have both enjo... read more

Very caring staff, always go above and beyond. Lots of activities for guests and beautiful food in a lovely bistro. Thank you for the care of Mum.
Business response:
Thank you so much, Sue; we loved having mum with us.
From my mother's first to the very last day at Shifield View, the service, care and respect have been outstanding. I cannot single out individual members of staff as they have all been equally outstanding - housekeepers, kitchen, care and activities. My mother's end-of-life care was also very moving and respectful by all involved. Thank you, Shinfield View.
Business response:
Thank you so much we loved having mum with us and being part of the Shinfield View family. Please keep in touch.
A very friendly, well-run care home with excellent activities and catering for everyone's needs who wish to participate. A feeling of friendliness as soon as you walk in through the door. Very pleased I chose this home for my sister - as she says, "we couldn't have done better".
Business response:
Thank you, Marian. We love having your sister here with us and she has settled in so well. Hope to see you soon,
Excellent facility and a wonderful primary carer. Fantastic care from all staff. Mum has been drawn out of her shell and is happy to return. So many activities and encouragement to join in. All the staff know all the residents well. Clean and well-maintained surroundings. Dignity is maintained at all times. Treated as people and not as patients/clients.

Thank you so much for a lovely review, Niki; we loved having mum back with us for a second time. We can't wait to have her back with us. Take care.
Thank you so very much for taking such good care of our nan over the past four weeks whilst she has been in respite care. She has thoroughly enjoyed all of the day trips, entertainment, food and a glass of wine! She has been so well looked after; the staff have truly been incredible, she has formed some wonderful friendships, and she can't stop talking about all of you. The most important part of her stay has been interacting with people; we will encourage her to pop in to say hello as often as she can. She is thrilled to be... read more
