This care home could not have welcomed mum more warmly. She has been a resident now for 2 years and during this time her care has always been at the forefront. The home itself is always lovely to visit at any time of the day. Staff are friendly and approachable. Always lots of activities to join
in with or watch from the sides.

Whilst it doesn't affect the star rating there is sometimes an issue with parking but there is a free car park 500 yards away.

Since my Mum first visited Friends Place for day care visits, the management & staff have been absolutely wonderful! They are empathetic, professional, knowledgeable, accommodating & friendly, truly exceptional! The care home is of the highest standard from décor to the layout and overall construction
of the building. The Friends Place "Team" are so welcoming and have already become an integral part of the local community and in such a short time which is testament to their dedication to ensure that residents & service users benefit and enjoy the support and services available. Special mention for Roz & Alina for being so attentive & caring at all times. My Mum enjoys her day care visits immensely and they have provided both me & my wife with much needed "break time" to recharge during her visits. Many thanks to all the Team for your support help & assistance, it's greatly appreciated. Highly recommended!!
Reply from Alina Gutu, Care Home Manager at Friends PlaceThank you so much for your thoughtful review. We're delighted to hear how much your mum enjoys her day care visits, and we're glad they give you and your wife some well-deserved time to recharge.

My mother has been at Redcot since November 2022. She does now refer to Redcot as home which indicates how well she regards being there. She always praise the staff for being helpful and cheerful and enjoys the atmosphere with many opportunities for the residents to meet and share activities and outings.
I would thoroughly recommend Redcot to anyone needing a caring environment to live in.

On the 24th of February 2025, I was involved in a road traffic accident which sadly resulted in the loss of my right leg below the knee. Over the following month, I was treated and transferred between four different hospitals before eventually being offered a place at Little Bramingham Farm care home
in Luton.
Since arriving here, I have felt nothing but care and kindness, The staff are always willing to help, and everyone is friendly and supportive. The food is excellent and I feel both safe and truly cared for. I already feel very much at home here, and would like to consider this my permanent home. There are lots of different activities to take part in, and I also have the freedom to go out when I choose, with carers kindly offering to accompany me if I wish.
I feel very fortunate to be here. Everyone is wonderful, and I am deeply grateful for the care and support I receive.

All the staff at the day centre where my husband attended were brilliant. They are all very professional , yet really personal to my husband's individual needs. They reassured me and my husband loved going and looked forward to his visits. They were very attentive to every detail to make it a special
time for him and in turn made me feel safe when dropping him off. I can not thank them enough , you all work really hard and I really appreciated everything you did.

The staff always greeted warmly. His bedroom was just great, overlooking the gardens and a lovely print of a river

Mother-in-law has been a resident for just over 3 years. She is dementia and not mobile but she always seems happy with her care. She always looks clean and tidy, as do all other residents. The care home is beautifully clean and tastefully decorated. The staff always seem happy and caring - like a
family. They engage extremely well with local organisations - children's nursery come in, local college look after garden crops, church etc. Always lots going on for residents and their families. Residents - regular programme of entertainers, keepfit, bingo, large tablet etc. Events - halloween and christmas etc for all, cheese and wine for resident family with full report of all.
Reply from Emma Lawrance, Registered Manager at Little Bramingham FarmThank you so much for taking the time to share your lovely feedback. We are delighted to hear that your mother-in-law is happy and well cared for, and that you've noticed the dedication of our team.

Wow where do I begin !! Honestly we cannot fault this beautiful care home. It's like a 5 star hotel, but more importantly the staff are just incredible! My mum and dad went in on respite two weeks ago with the intention of my dad staying permanently, although we'd all decided in the family that it was
never going to work due to the severity of his late stage Alzheimer's. How wrong we were !! We have tirelessly tried to get him to eat but to no avail, we struggled to get him to engage or interact with anything, but literally within days they had him doing both! They are simply brilliant at knowing just how to handle him. It is such a relief for us all that he is now in a secure, safe and beautiful environment surrounded by people that genuinely care. My dad deserves the best and that's exactly what he has at Friends Place. Roz and Alina you have been amazing from the word 'go'! A huge thanks to each and every one of you for taking care of him and making us all feel so welcome. X
