Overall Experience

Our Mum has been a resident since June 23, when she had to move from a previous home as it was closing. We were very worried that she would settle in.
All of our family are so happy and delighted with Farnworth Care Home. The skilled Staff are kind, caring for our precious Mum like one of their

own family, preserving her dignity, always considering her needs and ensuring that she is safe and comfortable.
The manager manages his Team with a genuine, warmth ensuring the best outcomes for our Mum. The Home is a place of welcome, love and care for our loved one and ourselves. Our Mum has numerous health issues, which have been cared for with professionalism and true kindness. In a fast world where service is sometimes secondary; the team delivers amazing care, everyday. We are truely Thankful to them for taking such wonderful care of our lovely Mum. We are so lucky to have secured a place. Highly recommended. Skilled, professional team. Thanks again.

The home for my dad continues to be of excellent care. He has a good relationship with some of the staff who make him feel comfortable and safe.
He especially enjoys the meals and the singing activities.

Overall Experience

My mum went in for a couple of weeks to be looked after while I was away on holiday, she stayed on the 2nd floor- Firwood unit.

From enquiring/ booking/ visiting the care home everything was explained fully and reassurance was given as we were very anxious about leaving mum in any care home.

My

mum absolutely loved her time here, all the staff were great and my mum was well cared for, she said the food choices were great too!

Would definitely recommend this care home for anyone looking and my mum is looking forward to her next holiday here.

Thank you to all the staff at farnworth care home.

Overall Experience

My mum has received excellent care in the Belmont Suite. She has a lovely bright room with ensuite. Her needs have been catered for in every respect. Nothing ever seems any trouble when we ask for anything. Lots of activities going on daily which you can join in without any pressure. Mum had a wonderful

day out at Fleetwood which she said she enjoyed immensely. Thank you Farnworth Care Home.

Review of
Kenyon Lodge
from Les E (Stepson of Resident) published on 17 July 2025

Overall Experience

Following a previous bad experience of respite care, we put my stepfather into Kenyon Lodge with some trepidation as it is very hard to judge a place from initial contact/visits. The CQC guide is outdated and worthless and essentially you are taking a leap of faith. However, everything went well, he

enjoyed his stay and all the family who visited him whilst there said the staff were friendly, attentive and caring. When we picked him up staff and management were very good and my stepfather was in good health and spirits. We hope to be able to use the home again!!

Reply from Shaun Morrissy, Home Manager at Kenyon Lodge

Thank you for taking the time to submit a review and for your kind words, it was our pleasure to be entrusted to care for your stepfather and we look forward to him staying with us again in the future. Such positive feedback is always well received by the staff team who often go unrecognised for all the hardwork they do to ensure that they deliver the highest standards of care possible. Thank you again.

Overall Experience

Mum moved to Kenyon Lodge on 3rd April 25 on end-of-life care. Mum was peg-fed and required full nursing care. The staff were warm, caring and compassionate in treatment of Mum, and also in supporting us as a family through this tough and upsetting time. We witnessed the care that was shown to other

residents of the home, the wonderful patience shown by all staff and the warm and friendly atmosphere of the place.

Reply from Shaun Morrissy, Home Manager at Kenyon Lodge

Thank you for taking the time to submit such a positive review of the quality of care our staff always strive to deliver to all of our residents at Kenyon Lodge. Such positive and encouraging comments are always well received by our hardworking staff who are often under appreciated for their work. It was our pleasure to be entrusted with the care of your Mum.

Overall Experience

Dad came to stay at Kenyon Lodge in Feb 2025 for end of life care. Sadly he passed this month (April). It was a big adjustment for dad who had always had independence and was used to living alone (and for rest of the family) but the staff really helped dad to settle. Particularly 5 members of staff

who called me two days before dad passed to enable us to be with him right until the end and the carer who was with us in dad's last moments. Even the domestics (particularly 2 of them) and the Maintenance man would stop for chats with dad, talking about his hobbies and helping him feel more normal despite his illness. Any issues were picked up promptly and professionally by the deputy manager.

My stepdad was in Kenyon lodge on respite for his 60th birthday, he loved the staff and their attentiveness. He particularly liked a certain member of staff and enjoyed chatting with him. He enjoyed spending time with other residents, watching television and spending time outside on the warmer days.

He was welcomed with a warm smile everyday and this really contributed to his happiness during his stay.

I was very apprehensive about my husband going into a care home. I really didn't have to worry about anything; the care he receives is second to none. The staff really care for the residents and their families; I feel like the staff are extended family. I would have no hesitation in recommending Farnsworth

Care Home.

Overall Experience

All the staff looking after my Mum were extremely caring and patient with her. They kept me up to date with any health issues she had. Mum found it hard at first to settle in but soon was laughing with the staff who made her welcome. They were there for her in her last hours when sadly I could not be

there due to my own health issues and living in Wales. I cannot praise them enough for all their care and dedication to her.

Since my brother was admin to the Nursing home in November for respite care, and now a permanent resident. He as been treated with dignity, respect, all staff are conscientious, friendly and caring towards all patients. I have visited other homes and found that Farnworth Nursing home is absolutely wonderful.

Patient focus is always good and nothing is too much for them. Staff are happy friendly listen to relatives problems and concerns an act on solution if needed. Would highly recommend the Nursing home and would never move him .

Overall Experience

I was welcomed by staff on the reception desk and during my visit found all staff to be friendly, easily approachable and helpful. It was my friend's birthday and birthday banners had been put up in his room and on the corridor. There was a pleasant, calm and welcoming atmosphere and my friend was relaxed

and happy. Having experienced difficulties at some previous care homes due to my friends complex needs, I know that I have finally found a care home that is just that...Home.

My mum has been in the care home for 3 years and in that time the care and kindness towards her and my family has been first class, of course its never going to be perfect with 40 residents on the floor but in my mums case I can say the care has been excellent and I would personally like to thank all

I left a review when my father-in-law stayed for a month earlier this year, this time just a few days, but he said he loves coming on holiday to Farnworth, he says the staff are all lovely, so friendly and always happy, he loves the food, he is looking forward to coming again in the future. We tried

a nursing home in Radcliffe and a few others but he didn't like them at all. This is the first home he has stayed in more than once, so relieved we have found somewhere he likes.

My Uncle was in Farnworth care home recently with Stage 4 cancer and I could not have been happier with the care that he received in his short time there. All the care staff treated him with kindness and respect and the nursing staff were wonderful at the end. I would like to thank Claire for her help

and guidance with the NHS CHC processes and the level of care that her team delivered. If you are looking for a quality home for your loved one - This is it
