My brother in law is fortunate enough to be cared for by Hayleigh and the care team at Cavendish. He is on end of life care. The care and compassion shown to my brother in law and every member of my family who visits is second to none. We cannot ask for any more from the team but particularly to Hayleigh
who gives and displays compassion to all without her guidance and care things would be very different.

Mum has been at the home for 5 months now and has settled in a lot easier than expected.
The food is varied and plentiful.
The staff are friendly and nothing is too much to ask for.
The TV or radio is always on and the residents are often heard singing to the music.
They have an activities co-ordinator
who organises board games, craft work and card games.
The have events to keep the family involved. They have had a Halloween party and Christmas party and Dad will be having his Christmas dinner there too. They have also got a photoshoot for residents and family before Christmas.
The home is clean and while it looks tired it adds to the character.

from Jacqueline C (Daughter of Resident) published on 12 December 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum was only here for a short while for respite care as I needed her to be nearer where I live to visit. She seemed very happy and even joined in playing bingo which she loved. All the residents were always up sitting in their chairs looking very clean and well dressed. The carers were all very kind
to Mum. The food was good and the chef made sure the food was soft and edible for her as she had trouble eating. They had a halloween party while she was there which all relatives of the residents were welcome and food, drink and entertainment was provided which was very good. I would recommend this home, The care home manager Ibrahim was always very helpful and was always there if you had a question to be answered.

My wife and I visited our Sister-in Law-on Thursday the 13th of February 2025. We were greeted at the door and signed ourselves in on the tablet. A manager took us to her room, our relative was on bed rest, she looked clean, neat and tidy, and had a nice smile on her face. Her room was clean, warm
and bright, and it had everything she needed, including an en-suite. Seating was provided for us and we were offered a hot drink. We had a really nice visit, chatted with the managers as we left and signed out. The staff and managers at Winsford House are all pleasant and hardworking and they do a good job in looking after our relative. Thank you.

My experience of the home is mostly positive. The staff and management do a fantastic job. They are very welcoming and pleased to help. My mum is well cared for, from what I can see. Sometimes she has food-stained clothes on, or someone else's clothes on. Have started writing her name in her slippers,
as once I saw them on someone else. That was before the management changed. Since then all ok. I have rated the room as satisfactory as it's a tiny room. My feelings towards the cost are very negative.

Very welcoming, clean and friendly atmosphere. Lots of staff available to talk to, manager on site who popped in to update me on my relative's progress.
The decor inside a little tired, gardens outside tended too, lovely outdoor garden area for residents.
Newly started family events are welcomed.
New
management are keen to engage and are slowly introducing new activities for residents to improve their wellbeing.
Seen improvement in Dad since the new management, treated more like individuals.
Very happy overall.

My father was a resident of Gairloch House for several years, and I visited it frequently. The care home was very well managed, with the welfare of the residents always in mind. The staff carried out all procedures to safeguard residents and deal with any emergencies promptly and efficiently. I was
always impressed by the kindness, respect, patience and friendliness of the staff. They made every effort to celebrate birthdays and special occasions and welcome visitors. The care home is in a quiet location, with a pleasant garden which residents can enjoy in the summer. My father thoroughly enjoyed the meals the chefs prepared. My family was therefore very happy with the care given to my father at Gairloch House.

Winsford Care Ltd

from Steve L (Son of Resident) published on 19 January 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum was a resident at Winsford for the last 2 years of her life until her passing on Christmas Day 2023. During this time she was treated with care, patience, dignity and complete understanding from all the staff. She was always a happy person and this did not change at any time during her stay and
I believe this was due to the warm and friendly environment within the home. The care she received towards the end of her life was a great comfort to myself and all family members, and we were kept informed of her health every day and each hour when her time came. I cannot express my gratitude towards all the staff who kept me up to date with my mum's condition and will be forever grateful for the love and commitment they all showed towards my mum. Care homes are usually only ever in the spotlight for negative reports, but Winsford for me is a shining light within the Care Home establishments.
