Care Homes Owned by Barchester Healthcare Ltd in Gloucestershire

My first stay at Hunters was in 2004 related to respite care after a hip replacement op. It proved to be an excellent experience and therefore after a heart attack in June '26 I had no hesitation to return for an extended period of respite care. I can only highly recommend this care home to others.

Mum was a resident of Ashchurch View for almost 18 months after having two strokes. She was so happy there, despite saying she never wanted to go into a home. From the day she arrived staff went out of their way to make her feel safe, comfortable and content. Within 2 months she was back on her feet, eating meals with the other residents, meeting new people and joining in the whole range of activities offered by the home. Sadly mum went into heart failure just a few weeks' ago and her decline was very rapid. Throughout her end of life mum was treated with dignity, compassion and respect. Visiting her during this upsetting time was made bearable because of the staff who I know did everything they could to help mum. I visited just an hour after she had passed away. I am so glad I did. They had dressed her in fresh pyjamas, washed her and brushed her hair. There were flowers in the room. She looked so peaceful. That is such a happy memory for me. Thank you.

I can thoroughy recommend to anyone who has a family member requiring care short term or long term. Thank you all so much for the care you have given.

The ambience and presentation of Ashchurch View is very pleasing and non institutional in appearance & atmosphere.

Rooms resemble hotel rooms.

Very happy with the service, food and care. Always used my name, staff were kind and friendly.

The daily menu is excellent. Good choice, fresh produce & v. varied. The chef puts a lot of thought into the menu. Activities there is a sheet produced weekly, advertising the activities but my mum doesn't seem aware of whats happening. Is there a lack of communication here between staff & residents?

All this has benefitted to my speedy recovery.

My wife has been here now for just over a year and has found it first class. The carers have always got a smile on their with a pleasant way of looking after the patients. When I visit my wife twice a week the whole place is always very clean with the meals and entertainment first class

We are grateful for the care and attention she receives and would happily recommend Moreton Hill to others looking for residential care.

Mum is very settled when she stays, staff are very friendly and compassionate. The home is in lovely settings. The rooms are spacious and nicely decorated. Mum has had 2 stays at Badgeworth now and will be staying again from the end of May and says she is happy to stay.

On 8 April, my brother and I wanted to organise a birthday lunch for my father who is a resident. As it was a lovely sunny day we wanted to have the lunch outside, we also wanted to bring our own food. The head chef was really helpful in allowing us to do this, including keeping the food warm before we ate, rearranging the table location and being around to check all was ok. The waitering staff were similarly helpful and professional, through out, as was the person on reception. There is a general sense of nothing is too much trouble. Thank you to Ciprian, the Head chef and the whole team!

My brother has been a resident here for almost two years, he suffers from dementia among problems. He loves being a resident here, and interacts well with staff and other residents, as Moreton Hill is only seven miles from my home I am able to visit him almost every week day, I have no issues with the excellent care he receives.

Mum is happy - which is the most important thing. She often comments on how lovely the staff are and how well she is looked after.

Since transferring a week ago to Badgeworth Court from another Barchester care home (for family reasons), my Mum , aged 91, has received nothing but compassion and kindness. My family and I are very grateful as well as relieved that she is settling so well after such a happy start to this new chapter in her life. Thank you to Rosalynn and all your hard working team.

The day I came to visit and my husband's bed had been moved to a different position (he was apparently, always trying to get out of be). He wasn't too pleased and neither was I. I went to speak to the manageress, who listened sympathetically, considered my request that the bed be returned to its original position; and then immediately called the maintainance man and then herself supervised the removal of my husbands bed to its original position.

I fell down whilst walking in the grounds and returned with some nasty grazes to my arms and nose. U was spotted on my return, and nurses met me in the office and cleaned me up, much to their pleasure!

Food very good on the whole - just one meal when the meat could have done with more cooking (and the residents told the chef so!!)

He is looking forward to staying at Tewkesbury Fields again.

The room my step mother was is, was spacious and clean. My step mother was happy and content in her world despite suffering from dementia. I compare this to the care home (in Liverpool) that my father spent the last few years of his life, where the space was small and dark and the staff clearly overstretched. In comparison, Barchester Ashchurch view scores way, way higher. I'm very glad that my lovely step mum can spend what is left of her time so well looked after.
