Overall Experience

I was very impressed at the efficient and friendly welcome given to Janet on arriving at Elgar Court care home. It was reassuring for her and certainly for us as her close friends. The standards on offer are 1st class and can be recommended to anyone contemplating respite care or permanent residency..

Overall Experience

I'd like to say how pleasantly surprised I was when I moved into Elgar Court. I was sure I wasnt going to like being in a "home". From the very first I was made to feel welcome and special and very much part of the community here.
I need help with various aspects of care and find these are carried

out in a respectful and thorough manner. Staff are always caring and helpful and above all kind and effective. Well done Elgar!!

Review of
Barchester Elgar Court Care Home
from Caroline H (Sister-in-law of Resident) published on 14 January 2026 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

For a research job in the past, I have visited all aged care facilities in Derbyshire, Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire over a two year period so I have a comprehensive view of what can be offered in care homes. I visited my sister-in-law who has dementia in November 2025. I want to say how impressed

I was with every aspect of the home:
Flowers growing in a box at waist height to welcome you.
A coffee area and lounge as you walked in.
A warm welcome from the staff.
The lift centrally placed in the foyer with simple codes to stop those clients who have dementia from getting lost.
The welcome from staff and clients in the dementia ward upstairs.
The wide welcoming corridors and clients' doors to their bedrooms.
The place smelt clean (i.e. no old peoples home smell!).
The staff were happy and friendly.
What a lovely atmosphere. Congratulations to all who work there to make this the home from home that it is.

Barchester Elgar Court Care Home
from Jeremy W (Son-in-law of Resident) published on 8 January 2026 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

You will not find a better care home in the West Midlands - full stop. The staff are genuinely caring; the food is varied daily and appears excellent quality. The facilities are first class (as a newly opened home, this might be expected) and visitors are warmly welcomed. There is a full list of resident

'activities' published in advance and offering multiple experiences for residents. Expensive but excellent.

Reply from Naomi Steward, Home Services Advisor at Barchester Elgar Court Care HomeThank you for your generous review and kind words about our team and wonderful home. We continually strive to ensure each day at Elgar Court is the best for our residents, and your review of our care is testament to the efforts of our team. Thank you!

from Elaine S (Daughter of Resident) published on 8 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

The staff on Avalon were incredible. They cared for my mum like she was one of their own relatives.
They all go above and beyond though would say they were just doing their job.
As a registered nurse myself I absolutely couldn't fault the care provided under the direction of lovely Sigi and Beena.

From Donna the manager to the lovely staff in the kitchen, danni on reception and all the wonderful nurses they all went above and beyond and we will be forever grateful.
They were our second family and looked after us all in mums final weeks.
Thank you just isn't enough

Reply from Donna Tustin, General Manager at Barchester Latimer CourtThank you so much for your lovely words, they are very much appreciated. It was a pleasure looking after your Mom and knowing you all, you are all very much part of our family.

from Jo C (Daughter of Resident) published on 2 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Elgar Court is now my Dad's and Mum's permanent residence. I have no need to worry day to day about any more so have more capacity on being a daughter again. The staff are so caring and compassionate. They also seem to have infinite amount of patience. The staff have made this difficult transitioning

period so smooth as this is a big step in all our families lives.
I do feel both parents are listened to which as they have got older had not always been the case.
Thank you all so much

Reply from Naomi Steward, Home Services Advisor at Barchester Elgar Court Care HomeThank you for your very kind and thoughtful review of our team and of us working together to support the gentle integration of your parents' move to Elgar Court. We are so glad that the relief and pressure of your worry is now gone, and that we can provide the support they need to continue living their lives. Thank you again. Kindest regards Naomi

Overall Experience

Elgar Court are doing a fabulous job of looking after my father in law, and he is very settled there. The activities are varied and they go out of their way to encourage the residents to participate. It is a great comfort to us as a family to know that he is so well cared for, and the staff are wonderful.

In particular, he had a birthday party this past week and the chef did a fabulous job of catering for all of us. Thank you so much.

Overall Experience

I came here May 1st - May 30th for respite care following four operations for hip revision. During this time the care and support of the management team and carers has been wonderful. My confidence in walking has improved and my general well being also strengthened. I cannot praise Elgar Court Care

Home enough. Would recommend it to anyone and my best adjective would be EXCELLENT!

Reply from Naomi Steward, Home Services Advisor at Barchester Elgar Court Care HomeDear Irene, Thank you so very much for the praise you have given to our staff at Elgar Court.

Review of
Barchester Hollyfields Care Home
from C B (Daughter of Resident) published on 9 April 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My Dad stayed in Hollyfields for a short time for respite care following a fall at home resulting in a broken hip. When Dad was transferred from a Local Authority Care Home, he was probably at the lowest I have seen him. The staff at Hollyfields were amazing in looking after him and building him back

up. Nothing was too much trouble, staff were kind, caring and responsive. The catering team were fantastic, catering to his needs by offering meals that he would prefer to menu. He felt valued as a person and enjoyed his chats with all the staff. After coming home he said he enjoyed his stay there,, we were very happy with the level of care he received during his stay.

Reply from Alison Moseley-Shaw, General Manager at Barchester Hollyfields Care HomeThank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to share your experience. It was truly our privilege to care for your dad during his time with us. We're deeply touched to hear that he felt valued and supported - that means everything to our team.Your appreciation for our staff and catering team will be shared with them, as they stake great pride in making residents feel comfortable, cared for and respected. Your dad is remembered fondly by those that had the honour of caring for him.

from John J (Son of Resident) published on 18 February 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

My father had a relatively short stay in Latimer Court, approx 6 months. During this stay, however, the management and staff did everything possible to cater for his every need. The home had such a lovely homely feel and the staff really got to know my dad on a personal level. They spent time with him

and got to know him and all about his past and family. The home was immaculately clean. The food was first-class. I would not hesitate to recommend this home or consider using it again if the need arises.

Reply from Donna Tustin, General Manager at Barchester Latimer CourtThank you so much for your lovely words, it is much appreciated by myself and my team. It was lovely caring for your father and he was very much part of our family. Also, knowing you all was a pleasure.

The staff at Barchester Latimer Court cared for my mother with dedication, respect and kindness for nearly four years. They were particularly compassionate at her death in November 2024.
