Review for Bayswater Metlifecare
4 / 5 ★
Feel that it takes a long time to get anything done with a lack of transparent communication around the process. Makes me feel like management are not being honest.

Feeling useful and engaged
4 / 5 ★
From the first week I moved into Bayswater, I was made to feel useful and part of our Village. I am now a Warden. I am a Co-ordinator for Table Tennis, I teach a yoga class and lead the Choir. No time for loneliness or growing old.

Friendly social living
4 / 5 ★
I think the cafe should be open public holidays as that is when residents get a lot of visitors. The gardens are not kept up to scratch and the reading needs attention.
