Review of Ambleside Bank from D G (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 9 September 2026 Submitted via Website•

Overall Experience

I cannot thank the staff enough for taking great care of my grandad Billy. The dedication, love and care they showed both him and our extended family was second to none.

They have gone above and beyond and we are eternally grateful for all the care and thoughtfulness. They have treated my granddad with love and dignity throughout and they have become like family to us. Thank you all x

Review of Ambleside Bank from M D (Son of Resident) published on 30 June 2026 Submitted via Website•

Overall Experience

I cannot thanks all of the staff enough for the way they look after Mum.
Nothing is too much trouble for them and they are always happy, smiling and helpful to her and her relatives.
If we have any questions, they always have time to help and the food the restaurant provides is great quality and tailored to mum's tastes.

Thanks again for making her time here so calm.

Review of Ambleside Bank from M B (Resident / Service User) published on 30 June 2026 Submitted via Postal Card•

Overall Experience

I have been a resident here for almost a year and have found the management and carers very kind, efficient and thoughtful for my health. Visitors have been struck by the friendly reception, the cleanliness and pleasant appearance of the home. My health has improved due to a hospital diet being observed by the catering. Activities and exercise are enjoyable and useful.

Review of Ambleside Bank from E B (Husband of Resident) published on 23 June 2026 Submitted via Postal Card•

Overall Experience

Just thought I would write a few words regarding my wife Dorothy's stay in Ambleside Bank. I spend over 4 hours a day in the home. The environment is 1st class, each person has different problems and are cared for their individual needs. It is very clean, food is to a good standard. It's comforting to know that Dorothy is so well looked after.

Review of Ambleside Bank from S S (Daughter of Resident) published on 26 September 2025 Submitted via Postal Card•

Overall Experience

Both my parents are residents at Ambleside Bank and both are cared for really well and with dignity and compassion. Dad took a while to settle but staff went above and beyond in taking time our of their busy day to pop in at regular intervals for a chat and make sure he was ok. He is now much better. Mum enjoys a chat and little giggle with staff, who she 'loves'. It's comforting to know they are well looked after.

Review of Ambleside Bank from Janet W (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 1 September 2025 Submitted via Website•

Overall Experience

My mother in law moved in to Ambleside around three months ago, we tried to care for her for as long as possible at home until we felt we could no longer it was becoming unsafe, this was the best decision as a family we made!
My mother in law loves living in this little safe haven, the manageress & deputy assessed my mother in law in hospital and made her feel at ease instantly, they explained everything and made sure everything was right for her and us as a family.
The care and empathy the staff show is second to none, staff are always happy and smiling and are helpful when we visit. My Mother in law loves living at Ambleside, she said she wishes she had made the move years ago.
The activities and entertainment are fantastic, she has a new lease of life and it's so nice to see her so happy and content, as a family this is all we can ask for.

The home is spotlessly clean and has such a warming friendly atmosphere.

Thankyou and keep up the great work you all do!

Many thanks

Review of Ambleside Bank from Andrea D (Daughter of Resident) published on 15 October 2024 Submitted via Website•

Overall Experience

Ambleside Bank Care Home is a special place. We are so pleased that our mum spent the last year of her life surrounded by such caring and dedicated staff. The carers took time to get to know her individual needs and interests and provided care and support in a professional and friendly manner. They provided a good range of regular activities and experiences including games, pamper days, singers, themed meals and trips out in the minibus. She couldn't have been better looked after. The home was clean and bright and Mum was able to take her own belongings to make her room cosy and familiar.
As a family, we feel we were always welcomed and staff took time to speak to us and explain how she was keeping.

Thank you.

Overall Experience

Mum is really happy here and she enjoys the food. The staff are excellent, should be more on the weekends. It always seems to be a happy place to work and live there, what I have seen. Staff should be paid more, it's a hard job to do. Don't understand why private pays more than council if it's not a lot because she is losing her house money already living here.

The atmosphere when you walk into Ambleside Bank is very welcoming and the staff are very friendly and always on hand for a chat. The day trips they have taken the residents out are brilliant and the events coordinator is a diamond. The manager and her deputy are a great team and with their leadership, they have brought Ambleside Bank on so much. Well done everyone in the team, needs a pat on the back from the girls in reception to the maintenance man to the chefs. Well done.
