Care Homes Owned by Barchester Healthcare Ltd in Bath & North East Somerset

The staff has been helpfull and very pleasant. So many people to talk to us very pleasant.

Can not fault this establishment or the carers it has been a wonderful experience

Dad spent just over 2 weeks respite care at Bloomfield after suffering a stroke. On his arrival he was warmly greeted by many staff which was lovely. He was made to feel very welcome. His room was fantastic (A8) clean, fresh and with some nice touches tissues + toiletries and decor to make it special. It was perfectly placed on the ground floor very close to the entrance to the garden. Dad enjoyed his days outside and even went on a trip! All of the staff were lovely and very helpful, they did a great job of looking after Dad making him feel safe + making his stay an enjoyable & positive experience. Thanks to everyone

Very caring and supportive staff made my wifes stay so easy for her and so reassuring for me. The activities and outings were all very good for my wife and she was made to feel part of a community.

Finding the right care home for a family member is one of the most important decisions you can ever make, which is why I cannot recommend Darcy Gardens Care Home highly enough. From the moment you step through the doors, you are greeted by an extraordinarily warm and welcoming atmosphere. The entire staff team goes above and beyond to ensure both residents and visiting families feel comfortable, supported, and truly valued.

My mother has been in Darcy Gardens since June 2026. She came via hospital from her own home where things had been getting on top of her. From the start all the staff and managers have been so helpful and supportive. I never thought my mother would settle so well but it has been remarkable how quickly everyone has made her feel at home. The facilities, communal areas and rooms are beautiful. Having a little cafe/coffee room next to the garden means we always have a lovely environment to catch up if she feels like getting out and about. All the staff have really quickly learnt her preferences and I haven't seem my mother this peaceful and happy for many years. I highly recommend Darcy Gardens.

I am so pleased to have found Darcy Gardens at just the right time and thank each and every member of staff for their kindness, friendliness and care.

My experience was ok.

His need for help was the whole purpose of placing him here.

My mother has lived at Barchester Bloomfield Care Home since November last year. She has changed from a withdrawn and lonely old lady into someone happy with life, joining in and making new friends. Her dementia has been supported by your staff so it has not been an isolating barrier but just part of being Mum. She is well fed and looked after and I am hugely relieved she is safe and people are there if help is needed. I hope she can have now quite a few years of a new, happier life. I have admired the professionalism but also the caring attitude of all your staff. Mum is in good company. Thank you for giving her some good years now.

For a new home their approach for elderly care is refreshing.

However, the team went above and beyond from day one to ensure he felt safe, comfortable, and happy in his new environment. I cannot thank them enough for their support, I highly recommend both the wonderful team and the excellent facilities.

My mum (Margaret) recently stayed at Kingfisher for respite care. It was originally planned for 3 weeks but she enjoyed her stay so much it was extended to 4 weeks. From the moment she arrived, all the staff were so friendly, kind + caring. My mum is usually very quiet + not particularly sociable, but everyone made such an effort to include her and really brought her out of her shell. It was lovely to see her joining in + making some very special friendships with other residents. This was all possible due to the atmosphere + kindness of everyone at Kingfisher. Thank you!

Safety and security excellent and although very expensive its all very lovely as long as Dad is happy this is my only concern + dad is very happy.

What a lovely care home Darcy Gardens is. I really cant speak highly enough of it. The staff are so friendly and caring, and really made me feel part of their family. Nothing was too much trouble. Unfortunately my husband passed away after only 5 weeks at the home but I am so thankful I chose Darcy Gardens for him to spend his last days. I would like to say a huge thank you to all the staff for their care. If I could give this care home 10 stars, i would.

This care home is lovely. It's well run, comfortable and well maintained. The food is very good with nice menu choices. The dining room and lounge areas are welcoming, beautifully furnished and comfortable. Full marks to the staff who couldn't be more caring and friendly. My mum feels safe and cared for here.

Excellent/fantastic staff and great setting. 1st class care and all the amenities you could want.

My overall experience of Darcy Gardens is one which I would recommend to anyone seeking respite care.

I did not think I would even need a nursing home but that day came in 2025. My brother was in a home and 2 days before he died I had a bad fall in the kitchen so was in hospital when it happened. My solicitors found Kingfisher Lodge for me, I'm so pleased they did as I have been very happy here and well looked after. My house had a very large back garden so I hope the people who bought it enjoy gardening

Thank you all.
