Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
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

My Grandad was a resident at Ambleside Bank for around 2.5 years, my Grandad was really well cared for, all the staff from the Manager to the Deputy to the care staff and maintenance team are ALL Fantastic!!!
I have always felt the home welcoming and really clean and modern looking (always a lovely
clean smell) staff have always been helpful. My Grandad was difficult at times, but staff always seemed to win him over and Cared for him so well, he even went on day trips organized by Joanne the activity staff.
My Grandad had quality life at Ambleside bank and as a family we are grateful.

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.

My mum has resided at Ambleside for 3 years now and has been extremely happy for all her time there. Our family have always found the management and staff most helpful and a huge support to both my mum and the family. We are really grateful for everything that is done for Mum which continues to be of

My cousin has been a resident at Ambleside Bank for around 4 years and the staff have been excellent in all aspects of care. Due to having medical problems myself, I had been unable to visit recently and was worried but I knew my cousin was in good hands and today's visit proved that all was well and
my cousin was happy.
Thank you to all the staff for your care.

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.

Since my auntie has been a resident at Ambleside Bank since around July last year, I have nothing but praise for the home. They really care for the residents, and they treat them like their own family. The staff are always friendly and helpful, the home is spotlessly clean, and the food really is good.
Cannot praise the home enough; it really is first class, and my auntie is so happy there.

My grandad has been here for around 18 months now. We couldn't have put him anywhere better! An absolutely tremendous home, they go above and beyond for the residents in general. My grandad really enjoys his time here. He regularly goes on days out with them! And they've gone out there way to make a
room for the gents with domino's darts and a bar which is amazing.
Thank you for everything you do for him. We wouldn't want him to be anywhere else.
