"Attended Christmas party on Saturday 9th December. Staff worked extremely hard ensuring that both myself and mum were well looked after. Food was excellent. With a good range of sandwiches, side dishes, quiches, salad, and desserts, it could not be faulted and a credit to staff who had obviously worked extremely hard in producing such a delicious buffet." - Teresa A, Daughter of Resident.
