Care Homes Owned by Swallowcourt Ltd in Cornwall

Excellent led care home, the home is warm, clean, welcoming, and my mum is safe and well looked after. Her food is good and her room serviced well. She is happy here and I am happy with her being here and her personal care. Everyone is kind, friendly and extremely helpful, I could not ask for a better home for my mum. Thank you to all.

Although my Mother's stay at Poldhu was relatively short, I can honestly say that I have taken great comfort from knowing that she was so well cared for, during what turned out to be the final weeks of her life. Every single member of staff I met were friendly, helpful and above all professional. Benefiting from a stunning coastal position I would have no hesitation in recommending Poldhu Care Home as a wonderful option for your loved ones.

A couple of week ago I purchased 6 pairs of new socks for Beverly. The socks were left in Beverly's room top drawer. When I visited all socks were gone missing along with a 'manicure set' £25ish. I informed staff members, some who said night staff were sometime 'agency' worry Beverly on some visits was no wearing any socks!

Really beautiful home and location. Staff are so friendly, welcoming and kind. Dad isn't left waiting for help. He's learning to walk again with kind encouragement. He likes the food, and appreciates the care. Lots of people, including Dad, who is a bit confused, think this is a hotel and they are on holiday. The chandeliers, attentive and polite staff and the amazing view make this a reasonable assumption.

The staff made me feel welcome, and have continued to do so. Always polite and considerate.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Poldhu Care Home to anyone who needs care in a place that feels like home . Everyone has made Mum and myself extremely welcome . She is treated with kindness and respect and staff always find the time to talk and listen to her .

My son has been at the home for seven months, and we are happy for the way he is being cared for.

The home is always welcoming with a greeting from staff or residents. My wife's room is light and airy and is always clean and well ordered. I feel able to visit at any time and have come to know the carers and routines. Management are approachable, receptive to ideas and try to accommodate any personal requirements. A more individual and caring approach to residents has been introduced by well being carers spending more quality time with individuals. The meals are tailored to individual needs and special events are celebrated. The quality and quantity of the food is always good. All staff are lovely caring and professional. Overall, I do not think my wife could be better placed.

Thank you to everyone at Trevaylor for making it a happy and comfortable time whilst Mum was with you.

A wonderful welcome from all the staff. Everyone at Ponsandane is so friendly and are always smiling, it really makes such a difference. The care he is amazing - nothing is too much, and everything is done with such care and love. My friend is treated with dignity and patience. The staff are such a wonderful team.

My mum has been at Ponsandane since March 2023. She had been living alone (at almost 91) and was not in a good place when she was admitted with none of the family expecting to see much improvement. I'm happy to say that she has thrived at Ponsandane and made a spectacular come-back that surprised us all. I believe this is due to the care and attention she has received and continues to receive, from Day 1. The staff are kind and caring, the facilities are warm and clean. My mum always has clean clothes and we have never noted any personal hygiene issues. The food is (according to mum) very good. The home itself is bright, spacious and cheerful and there is a lovely garden that the most able residents can use during the summer months. There are plenty of activities organised for those who wish to take part, but there is no pressure to do so.

The food is good and the head chef makes a real effort to cater for the needs and preferences of all residents.

One thing that concerns the family is that when my relative asks for morning coffee they do not always receive their drink, despite having sometimes asked 2 or 3 times. There have been a couple of occasions where a family member who's visiting later has had to go make it.

I cannot speak highly enough of all the staff. When you walk through the door the place feels like a real home from home. Everybody is very friendly and they go out of their way to help you.

I would not hesitate to recommend Ponsandane to anyone.

My sister in law was a resident for 2 years. A stroke victim who had lost the use of her right side and confined to a wheelchair. To add to that she had aphasia so putting a sentence together was impossible for her. The carers at Ponsandane were kind, caring and endlessly patient with her. Her brother and I are eternally grateful to every member of the team from clinical care, personal care, the cleanliness of the home and the wonderful kitchen staff.

It feels homely at Ponsandane and can only thank the staff for all they do.

The staff very excellent. They cared for dad he was always clean and tidy. His room was always clean. The whole of the home was constantly being cleaned and maintained. If there was an issue it was dealt with straight away. Would fully recommend this care home.

Thank you Ponsandane.

I'am very grateful for the care they are providing, as it must be challenging at times.

My father was a fiercely independent man. However in Sept 2025 he told everyone that remaining in his flat, even with significant support was no longer sustainable. We found a space for him at Ponsandane. The review and assessment process felt seamless. The clinical lead - Beth visited dad and confirming that they could cater for his needs. The administration progressed well despite much of it being done at a significant distance. There are a few hurdles to address all of which was sorted out quite easily. Hilary was very efficient. When dad arrived into the home he was ushered into the dining room for a good meal. This allowed time for my wife to set up his room with his property so that he would feel at home. Once in the home he was very supported by Hilary and Beth. ALL the staff were active is supporting him. He was very happy well cared for and accepting of the help he was offered. He took part in the events run in the home. His last days were happy, safe, calm and relaxed.

Her room is kept clean & nice & she is always dressed well.
