My mother has transitioned so well to Albert Edward. Staff are fantastic and nothing is too much trouble to meet her needs.There are many activities available of which my mothers attends, and is given a weekly schedule of all available which is great . The food is of excellent quality. My Mother has
been able to make several new friends of the same capacity ,which has been a great comfort to the family as she was recently widowed. The room is light and bright with a beautiful outlook.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother moved into this home because of worsening dementia and related safety issues. I had cared for her for 13 years so it was a difficult although necessary decision. From the application process I felt supported by Donna, and for the last year I have been so grateful to all the unit staff for
their care of my mother in a lovely environment. Day one we were met by team leader Jamie who was instantly reassuring that she could go to bed, get up when she wanted to, have food at mealtimes or not, have sandwiches/snacks when wanted as at home. I have been happy to experience that this home from home living principle promise, is a reality, and offered alongside timely support with activities of daily living. I have also witnessed such patience with the challenging care of dementia patients there. Sara (reception plus!) and Theresa manager are both efficient and have a relaxed caring can do team approach. These combined skills and attitudes results in the 5 star reviews which I endorse.

From the moment you walk into reception, Albert Edwards feels entirely different to any other care home - it's more like stepping into a welcoming hotel, with a calm and relaxing atmosphere.
It's a truly special place with a clear emphasis on helping residents feel that this is their home. Over the
5 months my father stayed there, the ethos was evident in every detail, from the respectful way staff interacted with him to the thoughtful touches that made his environment feel personal and dignified.
The professionalism throughout the home is outstanding. The care compassion, and I felt reassured knowing he was in such capable hands.
I want to express my sincere thanks to everyone at Albert Edwards for the kindness and support they gave my father during his time with them, your dedication made a real difference.

Since my dear wife became a resident on the third of July 2025, she has received and enjoyed nothing but kindness and care from all of the many members of staff, who have looked after her well being. The exemplary carers do all that they can - all of the time - to make her new life a happy one.
They

A very impressive first stay in this care home. The staff were very attentive and made me feel both cared for and secure. The advantage of also providing a weeks Respite for my wife, who acts more as my daily carer, also added to my peace of mind. I will be seriously considering further short respite
break to provide a relief to my wife and daughters who otherwise are anxious for my fitness.

This residential home is the best I have come across. It is welcoming and treated my dear friend with dignity and patience. They are flexible in approach and want nothing more than to give the best possible care. My friend was frail and needing a great deal of 'TLC'; this was given in abundance, nothing
was too much trouble. Caring staff are kind and pleasant, giving and showing utmost respect to such an elderly lady. Management staff ar of the highest calibre. Superb listening skills and showed genuine sympathy for our difficulties. They also acted positively in this respect, offering a much needed placement. The empathy and support was also exemplary. This is a family of caring, efficient, high quality individuals. It says something when employees choose to place their relatives here.

A fantastic experience in a beautiful well cared for unique setting. The management, staff and volunteers would be a credit to any organisation.
It was a delight to share valuable time and experiences with the residents.
The Chapel in the home was a delightful space adding dignity to proceedings as

Firstly I must comment on the general appearance of the home, it is spotless and smells beautiful of flowers and very welcoming and warm. The furnishings are first-class quality and carefully designed to give a calm and inviting vibe. The staff are incredible, very friendly and caring. My mum was very
vulnerable when she came to the home only 3 months ago and already her improvement in her health is amazing. She is content, safe and feels like royalty, as sisters we are so grateful to have found such a wonderful place for our mum.

My mum has been made very welcome during her first months as a resident. The level staff have made her transition from hospital very easy. Mum can be quiet and tall the staff have taken time to get to know her individual needs, likes and dislikes. Mum's health has improved a lot in just one month. Mum
particularly enjoys meal times with the other residents and is very happy with the quality and choice of meals, Mum looks forward to her weekly hair saloon visit and like that she can join in with activities when it suits her. We are happy all around as a family.

Albert Edward Prince of Wales Court was selected for my stepmother just over two years ago. It came highly recommended and this has proved to be justifiable. The home is professionally managed ensuring a high standard of care and accommodation. The residents are treated kindly and their dignity is always
maintained. Staffing levels are good, varied entertainment is provided and there is a good laundry service. The nurses and carers really seem to know the residents well and can be relied upon to act in the residents’ best interests. A friendly, professional and caring team.

My dad has been a resident at Albert Edward Prince of Wales Court for a number of years and the care he has received has always been first-class. The staff are fabulous and caring and the home is always spotlessly clean and has plenty of things going on for the residents to take part in. The bedrooms
are very light and roomy and the communal areas are very pleasant and calm to be in. The home feels more like a hotel than a care home and the decor is bright and cheery, along with the staff working there. I can't recommend the place enough, thanks to everyone there for the care they've shown my dad over the years and continue to do so.

My mother has been a resident for the past 7 years as she has dementia and in that time the staff at the home have always gone the extra mile to make sure she is happy, cared for, and well looked after.
This is an amazing home the best I have ever been to, I did look at a lot of homes before Mum went
into the home originally. I couldn't thank the staff enough for the care they have given my mother over the past 7 years, she is 93 years old and her dementia is slowly getting worse but she is happy being loved and cared for by this lovely home.
I visit the home twice sometimes three times a week and she is always well dressed and content I couldn't wish for a better. I don't say what days I will visit.

My mother is being well looked after. There are always people available to help and support.
There are a variety of activities for my mother to be involved in but no pressure if she just wants to 'chill' in her room.
Food is generally pretty good and there's always ice cream (which always helps!).
Thank
you.

My family has been associated with the Albert Edward Care Home for more than 30 years and our opinion has not changed. We agree with all the previous comments submitted by others, so no need to repeat them. My mother-in-law was a resident for a number of years and passed away at the home 12 years ago.
Her care was inspirational. My older brother is now a resident there so we have the opportunity to visit and experience the continued high standards provided. On a personal note, we draw comfort from the possibilities of availing ourselves of the Albert Edward as time goes by.
Well done to all the management and staff, cannot praise you enough, hence the 5-star rating.

The standard of care provided by the staff and carers at Albert Edward Prince of Wales Court is outstanding. All were provided with dignity, concern and gentle humour and with the utmost levels of professionalism. The home is immaculately clean with excellent daily activities. The well-maintained grounds
provide for walking for the more mobile residents.
When my late father was very ill I spent a number of nights at the home and could not have been made to feel more welcome in very challenging circumstances. As a family, we consider ourselves remarkably fortunate that both our parents have been looked after at the home. We live locally and visit the home a number of times a week and at different times of the day and evening, and the standard never wavers from excellent.
