Sir Aubrey Ward House

from S E (Daughter of Resident) published on 26 June 2026 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The care for my mother was and is exceptional, staff have worked tirelessly to improve her mental and physical state to good effect. She is now back on her feet and is enjoying her time again. Her room is always clean and tidy even if the odd item that does not belong to her ends up squirrelled away
in her cupboards. But I fear that is more to do with my mother mistaking items to be hers rather than the rightful owner.
Reply from Steph Palmer, On behalf of the team at Sir Aubrey Ward HouseThank you for taking the time to leave us a review, S E. We are glad that your mother is enjoying her time again.

I visited my friend Michael after 2 years, I can't tell you the difference he has now, he is so much better, and he said he is well looked after. I met the manager who has been there for two years now and he knows Michael very well which is a nice experience as most times they don't know the residents.

My mother in law has been in here over a year now and she is extremely well looked after. The staff are caring and kind. This home is comfortable and well run. Lots of different activities. Even when my mother in law is unwell the staff respond quickly, liaise with the doctors surgery and inform us
promptly. The garden and the main reception area are a great asset.

Watersmead

from Tanniesha M (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 25 June 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I think Watersmead is such a wonderful place it doesn't feel like the typical care home. I love that most of the residents are in the day room watching tv sitting in chairs instead of their rooms alone. All the staff are such positive, happy and inviting people and it makes you feel that your family
is being well looked after, my Nan always looks very well presented and content, her room is always clean and tidy. I would recommend Watersmead to everyone.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My wife attends the daycare centre once a week. There is a great feeling of homeliness and care. The staff are very professional and always available to provide feedback relating to my wife's involvement with activities. The management team have been particularly helpful and supportive. I feel very
confident that my wife will be treated with dignity and given excellent care. Dur to my wife's dementia, she can't provide feedback of her day, but always leaves the daycare happy and content.

I enjoy being at Boultham as I could not cope at home. Being here I have company and people to talk to. Also I don't have any washing of clothes or cooking to do. I sometimes worry about lunch and dinner time in case it is something I do not like. However if that happens the kitchen staff normally five

Chestnut Court

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The knowledge and experience of the staff at Maple House in Chestnut Lodge, Quedgeley is evident and very reassuring. Their willingness to support both my mother and our family at an extremely difficult time, in a very professional, friendly, caring manner has meant so much, and we feel very supported
every step of the way. It's clear that they are extremely dedicated to supporting residents nursing, emotional, physical, and social wellbeing needs.
Maple House's accommodation is modern and exceptionally clean, and residents have their own spacious en-suite rooms to relax in. Although there are two lounges, I feel that the true 'heart' of Maple House is undoubtedly the Dining Area. With its lounge chairs and patio doors opening onto a spacious courtyard, it feels much like a family kitchen-a hub where residents, visitors and staff gather, that has a warm and welcoming. supportive, and happy atmosphere that we deeply appreciate.
Thank you for creating such a welcoming and supportive environment. It is wonderful to see my mother so well cared for, and we are grateful for the sense of community that Maple House provides.

Stirlings

from Nick M (Son of Resident) published on 19 June 2026 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My mother of 98 years was looked after for 10 months. She moved care homes when a bed became available in a care home nearer to her previous permanent home and many friends. The managers and staff at Stirlings were excellent. A huge effort was put into caring and entertainment. My mother took up knitting
again! Unfortunately, the facilities do not match the care level. There are no ensuite toilets and some rooms are rather small. There is, however, a wonderful big garden which is well cared for.
Reply from Helen Dearing, On behalf of the team at StirlingsThank you very much for taking the time to share your thoughtful review and for entrusting us with your mother's care during her time at Stirlings.

We are delighted to hear that your mother was well supported by our managers and staff, and that she enjoyed the activities and entertainment on offer - especially rediscovering her love of knitting. It is always rewarding to know that our team's dedication has made a positive difference. We also appreciate your honest feedback regarding the facilities. While some aspects of the building reflect its heritage, we are pleased that the garden was a highlight and provided a welcoming, well-maintained space for residents to enjoy.

Thank you again for your kind words and valuable comments. We wish your mother all the very best in her new home and hope she continues to thrive.

My Mother sadly passed this month, she was there for 18 months and the staff were fantastic and believe she died knowing her family and staff were their.
The staff over the period got to know her as Nanny pat, and when the funeral directors collected Mum the staff were at the door to show their respect
and love for her.
She was happy at the home and helped the staff as she was a nurse herself for 38 yrs.
Thank you to all the staff .
amazing people who have the patience of saints.
Keep up the good work we all appreciate it so much.
Reply from Harry Marsh, On behalf of the team at Chestnut CourtThank you for your kind and heartfelt words.

My friend has lived at Watersmead for three months. Staff were very welcoming and helpful when her move there was being organised. They have continued to be friendly, attentive and respectful of her wishes. The monthly newsletter is emailed to me, and it is evident that those who wish to join activities
are able to choose from a range of lovely sessions. My friend's room is clean, pleasantly furnished, light and comfortable. When I pointed out that her chair was not right for her stature and medical needs, it was changed. Staff are very alert to changes in my friend's health.

It was with regret that I had to put my Mum into care but Hillary made things easy and the staff are very welcoming Mum didn't really want to be there and I would think at times would have been a hand full but they all said she was a lovely person and no trouble which helped me
The 2 nurses I used
to see always kept me informed on my Mum's condition and would phone if any thing happen so big thanks to Laura and Bernie
I would recommend this home to anyone and they were also very good when my Mum M.Cox passed away at the beginning of May
All in all great place along with great staff and
