Whittington House Nursing Home

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The whole staffing team at Whittington House are fabulous! They are all professional, caring, friendly and supportive to both the resident and their family. Residents enjoy being with staff who have an encouraging manner to enable residents to access the many things on offer at the home, enjoy lovely
meals, and receive considerate, professional care. The resident is the central focus of all they do. The resident rooms are bright and spacious, providing a private sanctuary when residents wish to rest or have time to themselves.

Whittington House Nursing Home

from Carol G (Daughter of Resident) published on 6 May 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father suffered from dementia and after having many falls we were advised by paramedics that he should go in a home. It is very daunting but when I visited the care home my worries ceased to exist. I was made to feel very welcome and the kindness that I was shown was very welcome. After dad went
into the home he was well looked after and they understood his needs. As dad's dementia worsened they adapted to his decline and kept me informed with any health worries. The home treated my father and I with kindness and respect and were very patient always willing to have a chat.

Had problems when mum first came in, wouldn't settle and was quite poorly. She has had a fall, and promised a pressure mat, that was in October, still waiting, now February. I have noticed the difference in staff at weekends they are quite happy for her to lay in bed all day, its not until I visit they
will get her up. Week staff great.

Whittington House Nursing Home

from Chris S (Relative of Resident) published on 4 March 2026 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My relative has been a resident since October 2025. We had a few settling in difficulties but this last month has seen a great improvement in her involvement in activities and enjoyment in being a resident. The overall impression of the home is very good. All the staff are friendly and polite. Cleanliness
is good. Sometimes I think the meal choices could be better but my relation seems to enjoy most meals. Communication from staff and management via email is good. We have not received a health update for a while but we can see that our relative is well and settled so no concerns.

The home is very welcoming. The main problem being that there are not enough staff. The staff there are marvelous - very caring and respectful. The quality of the food has gone down and is often cold. Rooms are not cleaned often enough. Activities are often cancelled with no notification. Rooms are
in need of refurbishment.

Whittington House Nursing Home

from Andy C (Son of Resident) published on 30 December 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Dad has been at Whittington House for over 4 yrears now. Staff have been fantatstic, supporting and caring for Dad throught some very difficult times. They have been attentive to his physical needs, quickly spotting when additional medical care is required and arranging for it promptly. They have been
really flexible in allowing him to contribute to the life of the Home, and in engaging with the local community while he was sufficiently mobile.
Dad has a very active mind still and finding the right activities for him when his mobility reduced has proved harder, but the management's and staff's commitment to Dad has been exceptional and never wavered.
Reply from Kirsty Hopton, Home Manager at Whittington House Nursing HomeThank you for taking the time to leave us a review, Andy.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Whittington House has been the perfect place for my relative to call home for the past 2 years. I feel they are cared about, kept active and dignity maintained. When I visit, the home is clean, tidy and homely and I'm always welcomed with open arms no matter the time of day. All staff I have encountered
have been friendly and always greet me and acknowledge my presence even if just passing in the hall and they really genuinely appear to know my relative well. Any concerns I have had over the time, I've been proactively engaged with and I know they are open and transparent about issues arising. Thanks to Kirsty and her incredible team for providing not only a safe place to live but one that is caring and full to the brim of activities, visits from community members- including four footed ones! And trips out for coffee or walks where it's possible.

I find that Wittington Care Home is very warm and cosy, like walking into your own home every one, from carers, nurses, receptionists, cleaners, chefs, crafters, volunteers, maintenance, gardeners, and hairdressers, are all extremely helpful, friendly and approachable. I would recommend people I know

The whole team at Whittington House made my beloved Nan's last years very special. She was looked after wonderfully in every way. I felt at ease as soon as she moved in and that's down to the amazing staff. She was cared for mentally, medically, physically and most importantly emotionally. I would like
to say a special thank you to Monika and Sarah as you were her favourite even with the dementia she knew you both and loved spending time with you.

Staff always keep me updated on my friend's progress or any medical reviews.
She is happy in the home and likes most of the staff.
Food sometimes a problem as she has difficulty in chewing, and sometimes there isn't a suitable alternative. For example; last visit I asked if she could have scrambled
eggs but not available as ? No staff to cook.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum has been in the care of Whittington House since April 2025. As I live in North Yorkshire I have great reassurance that mum is being well cared for and is happy. The activity schedule is put together thoughtfully and mum often attends and enjoys the social aspect of the care delivered. The weekly
menu is varied, meals and cakes all freshly prepared on the premises which mum says are always delicious.
From the beginning the carers have been attentive, smiling, helpful and so very kind.
As a daughter I am kept informed of any changes to mums condition, changes to medication and am given regular updates. Communication is first class.


Whittington House has been a godsend to mum and her family. It is excellent, and I thank everyone.

My Mum has been a resident at Whittington House for 6 months now and has settled in well, with the help of the kind, caring staff. We are generally very happy with Mum's care and also with the impressive range of meals that are on offer every day, but there are just a couple of niggling things that
I would like to mention. The website for Whittington is very striking and we were impressed with the furnishings however these are very sad and aged and the general maintenance is poor, dusty air vents, broken furniture, dingy paintwork in places and most annoying, curtains hanging off rails and even a cornflake and old tape on the ceiling of the day room which has been there for at least as long as Mum has been a resident. Carers can often be found in the Day Room sitting amongst residents, focused on their phones instead of making conversation and encouraging the residents to chat. I would ideally like to see more investment in the Home considering the above average monthly costs
Reply from Kirsty Hopton, Home Manager at Whittington House Nursing HomeThank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are so pleased to read your positive comments about the team and the range of food we offer. With regards to our team being on their phones, our team are not permitted to have personal devices with them when they're working, but we do use handsets, called PCS devices, to help us record and deliver care. These look very similar to mobile handsets and we are in the process of putting up some posters to explain this to families, but please do let us know if you have any questions about these or if there's anything else we can help with.

Mum has been a full time resident at Whittington House for over a year having previously attended several times for respite care.
She is very settled and happy there. Her room is good with a huge window looking onto the surrounding trees which she likes. The staff are always happy to talk and take
time with her. I always feel welcome when visiting and have joined in with activities. It is lovely to know that she is well looked after and has plenty of company and activities to pass the days.
The office staff are very helpful and efficient too.

I always receive a warm welcome when I visit my wife and all the carers know my name. All the staff do a good job. They keep me informed about my wife's wellbeing. I have no complaints or suggestions for improvement. Car parking can be an isssue at times as can gaining access to the building at weekends.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My wife who is resident and suffers from advanced Alzheimer's (she's non mobile and non verbal) was admitted to Whittington House Cheltenham in May 2024.
Whereas I'm somewhat resigned to her condition being unlikely to improve radically, I have been really encouraged by her response to the
excellent care she has received: she invariably greets staff and fellow residents with a smile and some staff appear to recognise some of the facial expressions she uses to communicate. I am able on a daily basis to take her to her room where I can try various means of eliciting responses/ recognition from her. Eg music (she was a professional musician), photos and familiar scenes/ images from her past. She is always clean and usually dressed appropriately. She appears to eat very well and any issues I've had are invariably answered/ dealt with promptly. All in all our joint experience at Whittington has been of a high standard.

The environment is very pleasant, with lounge areas and dining rooms being smart for a care home. One has confidence in the staff who seem efficient, caring and who work as a team. My husband is bed-bound, and he is checked regularly. The food is good and varied. I visit almost daily, but I can be confident
that my husband is in safe hands if I go away for a few days.
