Review from Laura H (Daughter of Resident) published on 28 August 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My family and I have been very grateful and pleased by the care they have given my father after he was discharged from hospital to Ash Croft. They are a friendly and cheerful team. The building is not purpose built and a little quirky but the atmosphere is calm and cozy. The team respond quickly to emails and always open the door with a smile. My dad has recovered in a way we could not have imagined and that is because of the way he is being loooked after.

Overall Experience
My husband was fast tracked into Ash Croft House for end of life. The care and kindness he received was very special. He was treated with dignity.

The staff were also incredibly supportive of me! I could visit whenever I wished and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you everyone.

Review from Carole T (Daughter of Resident) published on 16 May 2025 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
Dads now 12 months as a resident. He considers this his home. The staff are gold standard + our family class them as friends. I listen to them talking + helping other residents when no-one is in the rooms with them. Always its respect + caring. I am confident they treat everyone the same.
Obviously they look like they have a lot to do + I would love to see more staff to help them.

It may not be the most luxerious surroundings but we do not want any more for Dad. He is cared for + loved by all.

Review from Helen B (Daughter of Resident) published on 14 January 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Mum was sent to Ash Croft House from Aintree Hospital.
The care Mum received was phenomenal. Nothing was too much trouble. Everybody was caring and gave the absolute best care possible.

Mum was poorly throughout the 6 months she was at Ash Croft House. Whenever I left Mum I felt she was in safe hands and it certainly alleviated the stress I was under, Mum passed away just before Christmas, but in the 6 months she spent there she was treated with respect and love.

Overall Experience
Very impressed with the care given to my mother from all members of staff. They all treat her with kindness and nothing is too much trouble. The care home is clean and well-kept. One further item of note is that there are very rarely any unpleasant smells which is unusual in my experience of care homes.

Overall - Excellent!

Review from Chris W (Daughter of Resident) published on 17 May 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
As a family, we were distraught when Dad had to go into care. We needn't have worried. For the past 9 months, my Dad has been treated with the utmost respect, care and compassion by every single member of staff at Ash Croft care home. Nothing was too much trouble for them and they all became like extended family, they all got to know Dad's funny little ways.

The staff are friendly and very professional and words can't thank them enough. You all made a very difficult time easier for us knowing that Dad was well cared for.

Overall Experience
Caring staff. Always available to discuss issues.
They personalise their approach and care to the individual resident. Maintain humour and yet sensitive to relatives' concerns and worries.

Pragmatic and practical. Work with resident, relatives and any specialist medical staff to ensure most appropriate care.

Although only a resident for 4 weeks Mum was well looked after during her stay. She passed away very peacefully on 5/3/2024. She was made very comfortable and treated with dignity. The staff were very kind and caring to Mum, me and other family members who visited.

Review from Anne M (Niece of Resident) published on 26 March 2024 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Dedicated, professional and caring staff - excellent manager and admin, nurses, carers, kitchen staff and maintenance - all highly motivated. A big thank you to them all for looking after my auntie so well, for almost three years. I have never needed to complain or raise a concern, and as a registered nurse myself, I am reassured that my auntie is safe in their care.

Overall Experience
From the moment my family arrived at Ash Croft we have been treated like part of a very compassionate, caring and loving family.
I trust them, and they care for my father so well. He is happy, immaculate, and loved.

Genuinely "loved," respected and cared for as if he was their precious family. I will never forget their kindness. The nurses are experienced, a shoulder to cry on, compassionate. God's angels, invisible heroes.

Ash Croft is a friendly, clean bursing home. It is very well run and all the staff are compassionate and friendly.

The only negative I found was that there is no activity coordinator otherwise everything I experienced there whilst visiting was good.

My mum was well looked after during her stay at Ash Croft House. The staff were extremely kind and caring to my mum and the family during her last few days. She passed away peacefully at the home on the 2nd of January 2024. She was treated with dignity and made very comfortable at the end.

Review from Gina H (Daughter of Resident) published on 11 October 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My mum has been a resident of Ash Croft House since March 2020. She was transferred from a care home, being very poorly with pressure sores and genuinely poor health. From the minute she arrived at Ash Croft House, her health improved and within month's she had no sores. My mum tells me she is very happy and all the staff show her such kindness, which for me is wonderful to hear. I am very pleased with the care my mum receives.

Review from Geoff S (Brother of Resident) published on 24 March 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My sister was very happy at Ash Croft House and chose to stay there rather than go into hospital at her "end of life". She particularly likes the friendliness and professionalism of all the staff, and she liked the variety and quality of the meals. She was 24/7 bedbound so was not able to comment on the activities and communal areas.

I have found the staff and managers very helpful and understanding. The home is easy to get to. Dad has settled in really well and has called it his "new home".

We have peace of mind with Dad being here.

Review from Gill S (Daughter of Resident) published on 16 January 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The care my mum has received has been outstanding. She was moved into the home from hospital with weeks to live and has been at Ash Croft for over 12 months now. The whole team is keen to make sure mum and the family are looked after while she settled in, and have arranged for my dad to visit mum regularly as he lives in a different setting. Mum's nurse was keen to make sure her preferences were understood and made sure these formed the structure around how she is cared for. Mum is settled, comfortable and well cared for, even when she isn't keen on eating the main meal, she is offered something she'd fancy to encourage her to eat. We can't thank the team enough.

Review from Carmel M (Daughter of Resident) published on 29 April 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The nursing and care team in Ash Croft are exceptional and I say this as a retired nurse who can be very fussy and has much experience in nursing and care homes, both from the relatives' perspective and also from a management perspective. The team are stable, professional, and above all loving and caring to the residents and supportive of the family. The premises may look a little tired in places but don't let that put you off. The important things are all there. I will never forget the staff, they got to know mum so well and genuinely care about her as an individual. They also supported us as a family, which is not always the case in some homes. When mum's final illness came they were so attentive to our needs as well as hers. I am so glad that this was the team around her at the end and I will always be grateful to them.
