amazing", "A building is just a building, it's the staff that make it and they really are fantastic."

Valentine House benefits from a beautiful private garden with modern patios, and a large grassy area backing onto the home’s private carpark which our residents loved ones can use at their leisure.

The gardens are used to full effect throughout the Summer months with meals being served in the garden so our residents can enjoy the sunshine and warmth with regular barbeques, birthday celebrations and activities.

The home features a number of communal areas including the lounge, a well presented dining room, a public house style area, and quiet spaces for our residents relaxation. Valentine House also has an in-house salon where residents can book hairdressing and nail care appointments on a regular basis. All floors can be accessed via lift to ensure mobility is not an issue for any of our residents.

Silver End is a quaint area, with a number of local amenities just across the road from the homes front door, allowing our residents the freedom to explore the local area. 

The home is lucky enough to be directly next to the beautiful memorial garden, and a short walk from the nearby Church. Valentine House is situated directly at the heart of the village with a row of shops, and a doctors surgery directly opposite the homes entrance.
