Colne House Care Home

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff and management go out of their way to help and support my mum who has Alzheimer's. Everybody is always friendly and professional and have always gone the extra mile with her care. The home itself is wonderful and my mum always comments on how happy she is there. The management team and nursing
staff have always kept me up to date with how mum is doing but all staff from the kitchen to the cleaners deserve a mention. There is a constant programme of things to do to keep mum motivated provided by an excellent entertainment staff. A truly wonderful place for my mum to be cared for.
Reply from Victoria Franklin, Home Manager at Colne House Care HomeThank you for your lovely review. The whole team ensure the running of the home is smooth, everyone takes pride in their department which shows throughout the home.

My mother-in-law has been a resident at Colne House for a number of years and is very happy there. The staff are all so friendly and welcoming, displaying great understanding of residents needs. Their patience really is appreciated when dealing with the different residents personalities.
So much effort
is put into keeping residents entertained, with many activities organised inside the beautiful home along with visits to the garden centre, local cinema and dementia choir etc.
This years Christmas decorations were absolutely beautiful and such care taken to give everyone a special Christmas.
We feel very happy to know Mum is safe and happy and well cared for at Colne House.
Reply from Victoria Franklin, Home Manager at Colne House Care HomeThank you for your lovely review, we enjoy making sure all residents have the best experiences. Christmas is very special to everyone in the home and we all love the preparation phase and reactions of all residents staff and visitors.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum has received exceptional care here, and I couldn't be more grateful. The manager and staff are truly amazing - consistently attentive, compassionate, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure every need is met. There's a genuine warmth in the way they support residents, and it shows
in everything they do.


The home offers a wonderful variety of fun, engaging, creative and stimulating activities that keep residents active and connected. They involve the local community beautifully with regular family focused events, creating a sense of belonging that means so much to the residents and their families.


Most importantly, my mum is happy and that gives me enormous peace of mind. I feel completely reassured by the manager and the team's unwavering commitment to the highest standards of personal care and service. It is not a care home, but truly a home that cares, and I can't recommend Colne House highly enough.

Reply from Victoria Franklin, Home Manager at Colne House Care HomeThank you for your amazing review, we are so pleased you are part of our Colne house family. Staff at Colne house have genuine care and compassion for all of our residents and their families ensuring everyone feels welcome and comfortable. Thank you for your continued support throughout everything we do. We hope to see you very soon.

My mother-in-law is receiving exceptional care at Colne House, and I am so glad we chose this home for her. It gives me and my husband real peace of mind knowing she is happy, safe, and so well looked after. Her room - and in fact the whole house - is always inviting and spotlessly clean, which speaks
volumes about the pride the team takes in their work.


The building itself is beautiful, set within stunning gardens that make every visit a pleasure. We are always made to feel welcome, and the kindness of the staff shines through in everything they do. The food and the menu on offer are amazing, with so much thought put into providing variety and quality. The range of tailored activities is impressive. Truly outstanding care in every sense.

Reply from Victoria Franklin, Home Manager at Colne House Care HomeThank you for your amazing review, All the staff really do take pride in their work. We love when you visit and interact with all our residents, they love to see you too. We can not wait until your next visit.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum moved to Colne House April 2025. She has been treated as a complete individual where every need possible has been assessed and addressed.
She has dementia and is often confused, but she never fails to wave us off happily and her well being is so visible. She is always immaculately washed and dressed
and colour co ordinated !
The home is beautiful and the team work so hard to maintain and decorate it at the highest possible level.
Then what matters so much to us all is that we are as mum's family, always treated as part of the Colne House family and with such a warm welcome.
Support plans are reviewed monthly and we are always consulted.
The menus are good and food quality very good too.
The entertainment team get to know residents very well and their families too and personal interests are encouraged and supported.
We couldn't be happier with Colne House!
Reply from Victoria Franklin, Home Manager at Colne House Care HomeThank you, this is so lovely to hear.

Such a lovely place, and a true community. As grandchildren, it's such a privilege to be able to visit a home which is always so cheerful and welcoming, and where we can have space to see our grandma and have a cup of tea with her like we would when she was in her own home. The events are amazing and
we've made some really special memories with our son (great grandson) especially. Thanks for always going that extra mile!
Reply from Victoria Franklin, Home Manager at Colne House Care HomeThank you for your lovely review, we really enjoy seeing you when you visit, your son brings such joy to so many residents in the home, its so lovely he enjoys being here and that memories have been made.

We look forward to seeing you very soon.

I feel we are lucky to have a care home such as this in the locality. It is always fresh and clean and the staff welcoming and very friendly. There is a great amount of attention to detail with activities and the place settings for meals. My Mother is very happy and feels cared for and comfortable.
I cannot fault the place and feel it deserves better than its current rating.

This is a wonderful care facility that thoughtfully considers the needs of the person in care as well as their nearest and dearest. It is joyful to see how settled my Grandma is and the relationships she has formed with all that work there. There are activities to suit all preferences and even ones
where guests are invited to join in. I am very grateful for the care provided.

Since living at Colne House mum is happy, settled and very well cared for. Every single staff member is amazing, welcoming and greet you with a smile.
Choosing a care home can be very daunting but from the moment you step in the door it's like a home from home. I am overjoyed mum is a member of
the Colne House family. There are many activities to be enjoyed and it's lovely to hear music and singing when I visit. Communication between the staff and family is fantastic and you can approach the staff and management with any questions. The residents are first and foremost with this care home.

Colne House has been our mother's home for over a year now. In recent months her dementia has worsened and she has lost her mobility entirely. The care staff have shown her is exceptional. She is warm and clean and very comfortable and her medical needs are addressed daily. Watching your parent decline
so dramatically has been eased by the dedication to her welfare. We could not have found a more caring and loving facility where people are very much part of the Colne House family. We recommend Colne House highly.
Reply from Victoria Franklin, Home Manager at Colne House Care HomeThank you for your lovely review. Staff at Colne house want to ensure every residents is cared for to the highest of standards. Dementia comes with great challenges but by working in a person centred way they provide the best care as possible. Thank you to you and your family for your continued support we hope to see you soon.

My mother in law has advanced dementia and is bed bound. I have always been impressed with the care and dignity shown to her and all residents. Her skin is beautiful, her nails short and clean, hair brushed and is always in clean clothes. She is never rushed at mealtimes and good hydration is encouraged.
It is the little details that make a good care home into an excellent care home. Although she cannot take part, there are always fabulous activities and outings on a regular basis. These are often posted on their social media pages. The Christmas table this year looked wonderful. The staff have always greeted me with a smile and they are friendly and professional. Nothing is too much trouble.
Reply from Victoria Franklin, Home Manager at Colne House Care HomeThank you for your lovely review, the staff at Colne really do go the extra mile to ensure every residents feels valued.

After 6 years of caring for my father-In-law, who has Alzheimer's, my wife made the difficult decision to look for a suitable care home. After much searching, we secured a place for him at Colne House. The care he is receiving is outstanding.
Whilst the amazing staff at Colne House do the 'heavy
lifting': an excellent partnership has been established in which we are actively consulted about my father-in-law's ongoing needs and care. We are listened to and continue to play a role in his care. I cannot fault the care he receives.
The staff must be expertly recruited and trained as there is a consistency of practice and professionalism from everyone at every level.
The events, such as Halloween are extraordinary and give the residents such a boost. The home has now been beautifully decorated for Christmas with everyone, staff and residents, getting excited for the special day. It really is the most wonderful community.
Reply from Victoria Franklin, Home Manager at Colne House Care HomeThank you for the most beautiful review, staff go above and beyond to ensure our residents are cared for like their own family. We ensure each connection is person centred and everyone feels at home. Preparing our home for each season is a passion and enables residents and staff to transition through the year with excitement. Your support is so important to us and we are so pleased you feel you made the right decision in choosing Colne house, we know this is a very difficult step in peoples lives, your father-in-law is a pleasure to care for, he makes us smile everyday. We look forward to seeing you soon.
