I really enjoy living at The Willows. The staff are excellent and most helpful, and enjoy a joke! The food is excellent too - with all the right ingredients and plenty of it. I couldn't be more contented. Many thanks!

The Willows

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I viewed many care homes, but on finding the Willows I realised instantly that it would be perfect to fit the needs of my stepmum. The occupancy is small being only 24, making it very personal to each resident. The warmth from all the staff was clear to see. Nothing is ever too much when help is required.
Activities take place every day, residents are encouraged to join in which they happily do. Birthdays and special occasions are also celebrated.

The Willows

The Willows Residential Home offers a friendly, welcoming and safe home for residents. Moving into a care home is an incredibly difficult life change for anyone and The Willows staff tries and make the transition period as smooth as possible for residents, encouraging a home-from-home environment where
individuality and independence are encouraged and celebrated.
The staff at The Willows are what makes the home as they are so friendly, approachable and incredibly genuinely caring people. My mum often comments that she feels lucky to have such lovely staff around her which makes her feel safe and cared for. A range of age-appropriate activities are offered such as chairobics, flower arranging and arts and crafts should residents choose to participate. The home itself is very welcoming and the garden is kept beautifully. We can't recommend The Willows highly enough for anyone looking for a cosy, welcoming, friendly and safe environment for their loved one.

My mother has been at the Willows for 3 years and has received excellent care throughout her time there. It's been challenging as her dementia is advanced, but she has settled nicely and relates well to the genuinely kind and caring staff.
She has a comfortable room with views of the gardens. The
food is good, she eats well and has maintained a good weight despite her illness. She is also kept stimulated by the activities provided. Relatives are welcome to join in regularly with special social events.

Mum has been at The Willows for three years and she has had her care needs looked after in such a professional and caring way. As she has dementia the transition was confusing for her at first but she has settled in so well that she is happier and more content than when she was living at home. The atmosphere
is always friendly and welcoming. The staff are so helpful and patient and the home and gardens are kept immaculately. It's highly recommended.
Reply from Bhavin Morjaria, Managing Director at The Willows

Thank you for recommending us.

Staff work hard to ensure that my grandmother's individual needs are met with a personalised approach. They are approachable and responsive and encourage her to participate in the activities offered. They ensure safe, high-quality care is provided and communicate with me as the family member. We recently
enjoyed the summer BBQ! Thanks all.
Reply from Teresa Strudwick, Registered Manager at The Willows

Thank you for your feedback; it is very much appreciated. We are all looking forward to our next event later in the summer.
