Review of
Friary House
from J H (Daughter of Resident) published on 22 January 2026 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

My 95 year old Mum was in need of respite care following a period of time in hospital. The team were very understanding of her needs for the 2 weeks she spent at Friary House. Her mental health improved greatly with their encouragement and care. They set her up in a routine to enable her to return home.
I

would not hesitate to use Friary House in the future if Mum requires their care. Well done, management and all the team. Many thanks.

Friary House
from Helena B (Daughter of Resident) published on 17 June 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

My father originally stayed for 2 weeks respite while moving to the area. When the time came for him to be admitted to a care home following 6 weeks in hospital, seriously unwell, there was no other home that matched up to the kind of care he had received in respite. Despite his frailty on admission

and 2 years later he is still holding his own, and never he or the family have any regrets about our choice of home.

from Jules B (Daughter of Resident) published on 15 January 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

From my first encounter with the staff at Friary House I felt sure that my dad was in the safest of hands. Dad was extremely well cared for - personal care was fantastic, activities were amazing (birds of prey, chicks, sheep, ice cream van, trips out, fish and chips to name a few). Dietary requirement

met (delicious lunches, snacks, great variety). Health - regular visits from nurse practitioner and great communication at all times. All the staff have been incredible and I am so grateful for their kindness to my dad and my family too. An amazing team.

Friary House
from G H (Daughter of Resident) published on 7 October 2024 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

My mother spent the last four weeks of her life in Friary House. She was well cared for by kind and compassionate staff. This kindness was extended to her family and we were able to visit at any time. The end-of-life care given by the manager and staff was exemplary and went a long way in easing my

mother's final days and hours. Knowing that she was in such a kind and caring home was very reassuring for us all.

Review of
Kingsley Court
from Jane A (Daughter of Resident) published on 13 October 2023 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

The time had come for us to look for a ‘home’ for our dear mum - after looking and visiting a few we walked into Kingsley Court and my sister-in-law and I both looked at each other and smiled! It was that instant - just a feel! From when I’d spoken to them to arrange a visit to them greeting us it was

all so welcoming and relaxed! The pre-visit from the manager made Mum feel assured that she would be welcomed and cared for and we all felt the manager was listening to Mum carefully on her needs! Both residents and staff all looked happy! Kingsley is a smaller home (16 residents) which is perfect for our mum! Her room (with en-suite) is airy and bright. Mum tells us the food is really good too! Whenever I ring the home the office staff are also extremely friendly and we are always made welcome and phone taken to mum if needed! After 4 weeks we know we’ve found mums home! Thank you Kingsley Court for making an emotional time so much easier and looking out for us all!

The care home are there for the residents, organising activities and trips out. My mother has thrived while living here and the staff are very attentive to the residents’ needs. The home is always welcoming, exceptionally clean and smells very pleasant. My sister and I were very relieved when we walked

into the home on a fact finding mission to find a suitable home for our mother. The other homes weren’t a patch on Friary House. It has made mum’s and our lives very happy.

Kingsley Court
from Marian E (Daughter of Resident) published on 13 June 2023 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My mum is extremely well cared for by friendly and committed staff. She has much more company and is much better mentally stimulated at Kingsley Court than she was whilst living with me and my husband.
The food is excellent and nothing is too much trouble for the dedicated team of carers.
I am always

made to feel welcome on my regular visits, as are my husband and other relatives and friends on their visits.
I really feel that we could not have chosen a better care home for my mum.

The staff are very caring and helpful and nothing is too much trouble.
My mother (once she had settled after a couple of weeks) stated - the girls are lovely and help me and the food is lovely.
She is now well-settled and enjoys the company of the residents and staff.

Review of
Friary House
from B P (Son of Resident) published on 4 February 2023 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

We chose Friary House as my mother's new home four years ago, having viewed a number of other care homes across Weymouth. We made the right decision. The standard of care that the team provide is simply outstanding. The staff have supported Mum's needs as an individual and kept me fully informed and

involved - giving me complete confidence that mum is safe and able to enjoy her daily life.
Friary is light and airy and isn't as large as some other homes, so the staff are able to make it feel like a family home.
Mum has taken part in frequent activities ranging from arts and crafts, themed events and musical entertainment (she loves to sing) and even had the chance to interact with birds of prey!
Cleanliness, maintenance, home-cooked food and personal care are all excellent.
The staff and management are very approachable. Mum feels 'loved' and cared for. The staff should take credit for making Friary such a wonderful, safe home for Mum through to end-of-life care.

from C T (Son of Resident) published on 7 October 2022 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

My mother is very well looked after and treated with great dignity. The room is bright and clean with excellent furniture and where she also has some of her own furnishings. The care staff are excellent and my mother is always dressed well. The care home also takes the residents out for meals at local

cafes and lay on many activities. Last, but not least, the food is very good and residents have a choice of meal.

Review of
Kingsley Court
from C C (Daughter of Resident) published on 4 October 2022 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

The home feels friendly and the staff excellent and caring however the facilities are dated and not an easy layout for residents and visitors alike.
While the parking is easy. delays in answering the front door or telephone can be extremely lengthy.
It would be an improvement to be offered a cup of

tea/coffee to enjoy with the resident whilst visiting and I'd appreciate being able to make an impromptu visit if passing.
Encouraging activities for bedridden patients would be a bonus.
Overall, I am happy that my mother is in a warm, caring environment and treated with dignity and respect.

from E T (Son of Resident) published on 7 September 2022 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

Mum has been a resident at Kingsley Court for three years. She is in noticeably better health than she was prior to going there and I attribute this to getting regular meals and her prescribed medication at the correct times in short, the care she is receiving.
The staff seem to genuinely care about

us as well as for the residents and to show patience and kindness towards them.

from J G (Daughter of Resident) published on 29 August 2022 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

Staff are friendly and provide good care to my mother. Her lack of mobility is well managed by her carers. Considering her age and her preference, she stays in her room, her meals are brought to her and she is encouraged to join in with activities. Any medical issues are dealt with by contacting local

practitioners.

Kingsley Court
from Gillian L (Daughter of Resident) published on 6 November 2020 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Mum had 2 strokes in Lockdown and we were informed she needed to go into care. Not only could we not visit her in hospital we couldn't view care homes. From the first point of contact, I can't fault Kingsley Care Home. They have been completely on the ball with everything I have asked. They are so friendly.

This is vitally important in these Covid times.
Mum has sadly deteriorated but they have been brilliant to both mum and in keeping me informed.

Review of
Friary House
from J B (Daughter of Resident) published on 20 October 2020 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

Thanks to the patience and willing helpfulness of the staff, I have arranged regular garden visits with Dad since May, whether a summer's evening beer together, an early morning visit before lunch or enjoying an afternoon in the sun, the staff never seem inconvenienced. Given the time needed to get

Dad organised and to help him on to the decking, the staff are always welcoming. Often my dad asks how I found this 'gem'. The atmosphere is warm, homely and intimate. Most of the staff have been there for many years and they all seem to know him well. A real gem.
