Care Homes Owned by Abbeycare in North Somerset

I came into care after not being able to get "care" at home and having no immediate relatives to care for me, I made my own decision so nobody put me here, This makes a big difference and I am therefore quite happy and contented. Although my mind is as clear as a bell my body is not and I need help. I am grateful for the care I receive and marvel at how hard the staff work. I have a lovely room overlooking the garden and I spend a lot of time in my room as my mobility is poor, I have a number of visitors and from my chair I'm still involved with the work at the local Baptist Church

She comes 2 afternoons a week Wednesday and Fridayll

Would recommend.

Everyone is so very kind and nice. I feel completely confident leaving my husband with these good people for both day care and respite care. I know he has a nice time even though his memory - short term - is not good at all. I would know if he wasn't happy. They all like him and I know he likes them.

My wife attends Gough House one day per week as day care. From my observations and my wifes comments I believe Gough House provides a good, competent, friendly venue. The staff are attentive at arrival and collection times, and deal with stressful situations effectively. They keep me informed of any events that have occurred whilst my wife is in their care.

I am very happy with mum's care, its a lovely home and all the people are so nice, really look after her. Nothing to much trouble 5 star from me.

Very friendly home. Good carers. Food excellent. Always a choice.

Food of good standard, varied and home cooked.

Recently my Fathers Dementia has got significantly worse, and his behaviour has been challenging to the staff . However upsetting this is to the family , the care staff have been exceptional in his care , showing him dignity and respect. They have been excellent in chasing the doctors to get him some help medically with his sleeping which I am very grateful. The staff are always willing to let me know any updates. The food is exceptional. All in all I can't thank this care home enough for everything they do

My brother has been looked after in the Abbeygate Care Homes for over three years and we are very happy with the care he receives.As he continues to face the challenges of dementia the staff have made appropriate changes to his care plan and have always treated him with kindness and respect.

All nurses make me feel welcome and were extremely helpful. I felt safe and cared for by the team, nothing was too much trouble. The residents were friendly when I went downstairs and joined them for lunch.

I would be happy to go in again for respite if needed.

I have no complaints or criticism about my stay at Gough House only the highest praise for the lovely manager and all the lovely staff. Everyone was so kind and helpful and nothing was too much trouble day or night, however busy they were. Visitors were always warmly welcomed at any time (other than meal times) and always offered tea coffee or biscuits. I would have no hesitation in recommending Gough House to anyone considering residential or respite care and would certainly return there again.

Top marks Gough House and thank you so much for caring for my dear husband, I am so grateful to you all.

The home itself is always spotlessly clean and tidy. Activities are arranged every day, which Mum enjoys.

A small but very friendly care home. My husband was in for respite while I had surgery. He was worried about it all but they soon put him at ease and I know he would want to go there again when I have a holiday.

My mother is very happy, content and more than satisfied living in Abbey Gate Care Home. She is extremely well cared for in every area and speaks highly of staff saying that they are very kind and caring. Whatever is needed for my mother, she always receives. Abbey Gate is a lovely care home and I would highly recommend it.

I cannot thank this place enough, too many names to mention, you were all fantastic.

As mum's care needs have changed they staff have made appropriate changes for her. They have always treated her with respect and have liaised with family to ensure her happiness in the home.

My mother attended the day centre at Gough House for a little over a year. Her dementia meant she had become very attached to my father and the daycare enabled him to have a much-needed break. The staff were so caring, supporting our family as well as taking great care of Mum. The activities were excellent and varied, as were the meal options. The daycare co-ordindator in particular was amazing - born for the job and able to make my mum happy and comfortable at the daycare. Could not recommend more highly.
