Residents and visitors spoke positively about the caring staff and the comfortable environment. The home offers a range of activities and has pleasant communal areas and secure gardens.

Overall, residents receive good care but some improvements are needed in management oversight and infection control.

This is the most the home can charge a week for residents on the Fair Deal scheme. Under Fair Deal you pay up to 80% of your income and 7.5% of the value of your assets a year, and the State pays the rest. Homes may charge extra for things like activities, hairdressing or newspapers, so ask about these when you call.
