Chilterns Court Care Centre

from T S (Daughter of Resident) published on 17 November 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The care my dad receives is very good and the care staff are excellent. Nothing seems to be too much trouble, and they are all very helpful. The hairdresser and the chiropodist that tend to my dad are excellent. Both are so kind. I do feel that when the chef is deciding on the menu, it should be suited
at times to the elderly palate. Not all of them have their teeth or full set.

Lent Rise House

from Janice N (Daughter of Resident) published on 14 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has dementia and was immobile since arriving at the home around 2 years ago. I have always found that the staff take great care of my mother with nursing care and general wellbeing, and if she is poorly I get a call straight away. The staff take note of what the residents' likes or dislikes
are regarding food and drink, and hobbies, such as (in my mother's case) the garden and flowers. As time has gone on my mother's dementia has got worse but the staff are well trained and deal with it very well. From the start I have always received a very warm welcome when I visit, and I am amazed that they all know my name, as well as my mother's. There is always something going on in the large reception area with residents from all the wings enjoying things like a tea party, flower arranging, word games, exercises, etc, with entertainers visiting regularly. The home is kept very clean, decorated regularly, with a pleasant garden. I am extremely happy with my mother's care.
Reply from Steph Palmer, On behalf of the team at Lent Rise House
Thank you so much for your 5 star review, Janice! We are thrilled that you are so happy with your mothers care at Lent Rise House.

Review of

Hartsholme House

from Peter D (Son-in-law of Resident) published on 14 November 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
In Hartsholme House, I see lots of examples of great leadership: Setting an example, being respectful, not only of residents (& their visitors) but also of one another, upholding values of dignity and standards ultimately in the selection of staff who really care about vulnerable people, who speak clearly
without impatience of condescenion helping all staff to be leaders and behave accordingly, engaging professionalism so all residents are treated with respect regardless of educational attainment, gender, skin colour, race or religion. I see carers discreetly doing 'the right thing' when no one is watching, eg bringing headgear to protect a resident's head whilst sitting in bright sunshine or checking how a resident acquired scratches on her forearm. HH enriches residents' lives by sharing gardening tasks, hosting religious meetings, and even taking a new resident for walks outside the home, to aid her settling in. From what I see, Hartsholme House is often a joyful place to live with laughter and fun, if you feel like it! Thank you for everything you do for my mother-in-law.
Reply from Anna Jennings, On Behalf of The Team at Hartsholme House
Thank you for taking the time to write your kind review. The team really appreciate the lovely feedback and are honoured that you chose Hartsholme House to care for your mother-in-law

Mum came to stay in June this year. She has settled well and is wonderfully looked after. Thanks to all the staff for their care and attention with mum, she adores everyone!
Mum enjoys the freshly prepared meals, the great activities and joins in everything going on - thanks, Annie, for all the arranging.
Mum is so happy, singing and waving her arms to all the music activities.

Icknield Court

from L S (Grandson of Resident) published on 11 November 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our grandmother has lived at Icknield Court for some time now, and we continue to be deeply impressed by the standard of care she receives. The home is exceedingly well run - calm, organised and quietly professional. The staff are the heart of the home; genuine, warm and attentive in a way that never
feels forced. They treat residents as individuals with patience and kindness. The building itself is clean, bright and spacious with plenty of comfortable corners for conversations or privacy. Our grandmother's room overlooks the courtyard garden where the resident muntjac sometimes wanders through, and red kites can be seen overhead - small details that bring real joy. Meal are excellent, both nostalgic and modern, and the activities programme is full and thoughtful. We especially like 'The Weekly Sparkle', the in-house magazine that keeps everyone connected and entertained. Located just minutes from Princes Risborough, Icknield Court offers genuine value, dignity and peace of mind. It feels like a place where people are truly cared for.

Goodson Lodge Care Centre

from A P (Daughter of Resident) published on 6 November 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We knew immediately that this was the place for mum. Everyone was friendly from the very first visit, and this has continued. We particularly like that the rooms for those with dementia are on the ground floor, giving ready access to lounges and the lovely gardens. The care team seem to really know
the residents and are good at maintaining communication/ The management team have been helpful with ongoing admin and financial arrangements. Everyone contributes to create a homely atmosphere.

Lent Rise House

from Amanda R (Daughter of Resident) published on 5 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff are always attentive, caring, and on hand when needed. The activities team are friendly and often hilarious - it's hard to engage everyone all the time, yet they somehow manage it with humour and warmth. My husband especially enjoyed helping with the resident cat, a firm favourite who brightens
the day.


Family and friends are made to feel welcome, and residents are treated with dignity and genuine affection. The facilities are well laid out and clean, with pretty gardens. Mum seemed happy with the food, which was varied and nourishing. Regular wellbeing checks, hairdressers, chiropodists, and beauticians add to the homely feel. The laundry service was immaculate, even during short respite stays.


Having seen other homes over the years, I believe anyone can be staff, but it takes someone special to be a carer. The team here truly care. Compared with others, the cost feels fair and reasonable. We're grateful to have found this local gem.

Fremantle Court

from Rebecca G (Daughter of Resident) published on 4 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I would like to say a big thank you to Fremantle for the care that they are giving my mother. After a long hospital stay, mum had to move from the residential wing into a nursing wing. She has built up strong relationships with the carers and nurses (the continuity of staff within the wing is invaluable),
who have got to know her well, and who go the extra mile to ensure that she is happy. Everyone from the activity staff to the receptionists are super friendly both to mum and us when we visit. Also a shout out for Xiao (the manager) who so obviously really cares about the residents, is happy to muck in where ever she is needed and who, as far as I can tell, works incredibly hard at a very demanding role. Many thanks to all.

My experience with Meadowcroft Care Home started before my mother became a resident. From my first phone conversation with the staff especially the manager, I found the support both very professional and empathetic. On meeting the team I became very reassured as they were friendly and approachable.
This whole experience has been a difficult time for my mother and now feels very confident she will be very well cared for at Meadowcroft.

My mother has been a resident at Chesham Leys for over a year now, and I can honestly say the care and kindness she receives there have given me so much peace of mind. From the moment we first visited, we were welcomed with warmth and compassion. The staff take the time to get to know each resident
personally, which makes all the difference. The home itself is always spotless, bright and cheerful. Mum especially enjoys the activities and seeing the children from the school. Communications with families is good and I'm always kept informed. It's clear the staff truly care about the people they look after.
