Review of Brook View from J F (Daughter of Resident) published on 27 July 2026 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience

My mum has been at Brook View for 4 months. Her care has been excellent. The manager leads a very professional and thoughtful staff. Everyone is friendly to me and my mum. All the staff are caring and kind - this goes from the kitchen, front desk, housekeeping, carers and nurses. There are always enough staff on duty to ensure every resident has attention and care as soon as it's needed. I am so happy we chose Brook View - I know my mum is safe and well looked after.

They're friendly and extremely competent at what they do. Nothing is too much trouble. The food is top hotel standard. The beautiful gardens are a lovely place to sit or stroll around. Plentiful activities makes socialising for the residents really enjoyable. Perfect home from home.

Review of Amberwood House from T J (Friend of Resident) published on 23 July 2026 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience

This is not a carehome but a five star hotel,my friend who celebrated her 99th birthday this weekend has been in this hotel for a year now and reluctantly agreed to try respite but now would not want to be anywhere else.She feels safe and definitely looked after .from entering the reception you are always greeted my Sonja or Camilla not just Hello but how are you. Kerry the Manager always door open to listen to and straight away on a problem. Maddie Nici,Sarah Jill,Gemma the list goes on for all their help around the home. I'm so happy for my friend as she was very independent and found this transition hard didn't want to join in the activities but now secretly think she would like me to leave as to join in lol The Home is scrupulously clean the food is amazing and will cater for the residents needs. They are always doing activities and trips on the mini bus and also little touches of informing the residents with their weekly newsletter of all the events going on.

Review of Abbotts Barton from E H (Respite Resident) published on 22 July 2026 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
I came to Abbotts Barton after a relapse of my Rheumatoid Arthritis when my son had to come and live with me for 10 days as I live on my own, I lost all my confidence as I was unable to get dressed, get out of a chair, walk with my walker, or go to the toilet without help, Im hoping my stay will improve my confidence and I will be able to live on my own again

All the staff from the cleaners to the manager have been very supportive and although I need only a little help, they are always around when I need them, they recognise that I am usually a very independent person, they always know my name and there is always a smile to accompany this.

Review of Abbotts Barton from L W (Daughter of Resident) published on 22 July 2026 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
Having experienced having relation in various care homes in other counties, it was with trepidation that after realising my father could no longer cope at home, we made the difficult decision to bring him to Abbots Barton.
We need not have worried, the whole family feel at home here when they visit.
The staff are all very kind. The laundry service is excellent, as is the overall cleanliness and care.

A great weight was taken off us. Thank you all.

Review of Fernhill from Darren S (Son of Resident) published on 13 July 2026 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Fernhill was home to Mum in her last months. I have re-written this review several times because I have found myself falling into an emotional Labyrinth thinking about the 21st May when this remarkable person who had been a constant in my life, and loved by so many others, passed away.
ALL the staff welcomed Mum into this great home. Filled with colour, light...and life. The photos of residence's day's out and activities adorned the walls and wow, the menu each day......made me hungry to say the very least!
From the very first moment I stepped into Fernhill, looking for a suitable place for Mum to be cared for, it was immediate connection and sense of relief.
The whole process of Mum being assessed, admitted and cared for could not have been easier.

Sadly, Mum would not be able to partake in the plethora of activities as she declined very quickly. This sounds and, of course, IS sad but she was SAFE. She was CARED FOR. She was HAPPY. Thank you Fernhill for everything. 10/10

Review of St Catherines View from Rev Chris W (Regular Volunteer) published on 13 July 2026 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
As a local priest, I regularly visit St Catherine's View with a small team from our church to lead services for residents, and I also bring communion and pray with individuals.
I am consistently impressed by the high standards throughout the home. Staff are attentive, kind, warm and deeply caring. The activities team, led by Laura, are exceptional, offering an impressive range and variety of activities for residents.
I have also provided end-of-life spiritual care for several residents and have been struck by the way staff create a peaceful, safe and dignified environment for families to say their final goodbyes. One particularly moving example was when two members of staff stayed many hours beyond the end of their shift so a resident would not be alone while waiting for family to arrive.

Residents are clearly known and valued as individuals, treated with dignity and respect. I would happily and confidently entrust one of my own relatives to St Catherine's View.

↩Reply from Vanda Baker, Home Manager at St Catherines View

Thank you for your kind feedback. We're always so pleased to welcome you to the home and are pleased you hold St Catherines View in such high regard.

Review of Castle View from Derrick A (Respite Resident) published on 9 July 2026 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
From the moment of entering Castle View one is struck immediately by the welcoming and friendly atmosphere pervading. Staff know you by name, always smiling and once one is settled the atmosphere is one of home from home. Nothing is too much trouble for them. Being on a special diet the chef did everything to accomodate my dietry requirements.
The activities within the home were constant through each day.
There is a quiet atmosphere of contentment.

Altogether a relaxing and healing experience thoroughly recommend the experience to all who require it.

Overall Experience
The staff at Avon Cliff have been excellent throughout: kind, patient, helpful, reassuring. They certainly go the extra mile to make sure their residents get the best care. Every member of staff I've met or spoken to has been so welcoming and helpful. My friend using Avon Cliff for respite had nothing but the highest praise for the care, the people and the food. The whole place seems well managed, clean, tidy, modern, fresh and comfortable. The gardens are beautiful. Well done you're all doing an amazing job!

Thank you
