Amazing facility! Clean rooms and friendly staff. There's always something fun going on for the residents. My grandmother is more active and social then she's been in years. Highly recommended.

After a flooding at another retirement home last year, my brother was suddenly in immediate need of a new residence. There are several in our city of London to choose from so it was a task to find one that met all of his needs. Tour after tour of places that just didnt click all of the boxes. And then we visited Waverly. We were greeted by super friendly staff that answered all of our questions and even the on site maintenance man who assured us that if there was anything we needed (extra support bars installed etc) that he would look after it. We liked that it had new flooring, new bathroom and was fresh and clean. I also appreciated how busy it seemed with lots going on for residents in the large social areas. Residents were coming and going and many still drive etc so it felt perfect! My brother has now lived there for over a year and our family is so happy that he loves living at Waverly. He spends several days a week out doing his own thing but once home, he's back with his friends outside on the new patio surrounded by the gardens that residents have created and tended to. 5 stars represent my overall appreciation for a well organized retirement home where residents are respected and taken care of very well. I would recommend a tour of this beautiful historic home to anyone who is looking for a safe and reputable retirement residence. Thank you to the dedicated staff and admin team for becoming a part of our Family! ♡
