Overall Experience

Everything about the Willows is excellent. My wife is treated very well and I think I am treated as good even though I am only a visitor. Everyone is so pleasant and caring. Sometimes I don't get a chance to finish signing in when I am presented with a mug of tea or coffee.
Thank you.

Overall Experience

The Willows Nursing Home is absolutely fantastic. All the staff are amazing and all work extremely hard. It is such a lovely happy and friendly place. The staff make every resident feel special and very well cared for. Faye the Manager is lovely and always has time for you. The whole place is lovely

and clean and the food and choices are great. They offer great activities and encourage all residents to participate. They even allow the residents family members to join in. We love the bingo on a Friday and is always good fun. Karen who organises the activities, with the help of her colleagues, is amazing, she is so funny and does a brilliant job. We have attended the garden party in the summer with bbq, raffle and live music. Halloween party, fancy dress. Christmas activities. Always have something going on. If your looking place your loved ones in a care home then look no further, i would 100% recommend the Willows. Thank you team for all your hard work and patience.

The Willows
from Annette V (Daughter of Resident) published on 4 February 2026 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

The Willows meets the basic needs of my relative, there could be a lot of improvement. Whilst his clothes are laundered, personal hygiene is not paid enough attention to, showering, teeth brushing and shaving. Care staff do not ensure these are done on a regular basis. A light menu was suggested for

most mealtimes, this has not always been adhered to, resulting in a lot of food waste. Time residents spend alone in their rooms, activities could be encouraged for interaction. In the event of their being a problem, staff do not use their initiative to remedy this. Result is a complaint, particularly if it's a health and safety issue.

Reply from Kathleen Wood, Quality Team at The WillowsThank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're pleased to hear that your relatives basic needs are being met, but we're sorry to learn about the areas where you feel improvements are needed. We take concerns around personal hygiene , clothing, meals and activities very seriously and this feedback has been shared with the management team.

Overall Experience

Amazing, it was never going to be easy putting a parent into permanent care, however the staff at the Willows are fantastic they are caring and compassionate. The manager always has time for you and will answer any questions or queries. The home itself has a lovely atmosphere and my Dad is very settled.

The food is freshly made on the premises and always a good choice, all the staff are patient and kind not just to the residents but to us too, it has taken a big weight off the family knowing he is well looked after. The ladies in the laundry are fab they always make sure everything is clean and returned to the correct resident. Thank you to everyone

Reply from Naveed Hussain, Owner at The WillowsThank you so much for your kind words. We truly understand how difficult it can be to decide to move a loved one into care, so it means the world to us that you feel reassured and supported. Seeing your dad settled and happy is exactly what we strive for and we are so pleased to hear that you feel at ease knowing he is well looked after.Your appreciation for our team, from the care staff to the laundry ladies, has been shared with them. It lifts everyone's spirits. If there is ever anything more we can do for you or your dad, please do not hesitate to ask.

Staff are always friendly and always assist in getting Mum to sit in a quiet room. Manager is always interactive on our arrival, updating us on how Mum is and where she is. and able to tell us what activities Mum has enjoyed. Always approachable, both friendly and professional. Carers and all other

staff who care for Mum are interactive with Mum and family visiting. They work hard to look after Mum, they are positive, caring and professional. All staff at The Willows work very hard as one big team together to make Mum's life there as comfortable as possible and with dignity.

I can’t praise the home enough. The staff are so happy, which makes me happy and they all love Mum. We can’t be with her but I have no worries as I know she is happy. It doesn’t smell and it’s very, very clean - so pleased I chose the Willows. I recommend it to everyone who is asking about a home. Let’s

hope things get back to normal and we can go more often.

Overall Experience

Both my parents were residents until the loss of my father. During this time, I have been happy with the care the staff have given to them. The home always smells fresh and clean, not something that can be said regarding other homes we have visited. The food is excellent and the staff go the extra mile

for my mum's needs. The staff have responded to the recent difficult covid-19 situation with the utmost care and professionalism. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend the facility.

Reply from Clare Sherwin, Compliance manager at The WillowsOn behalf of all of the Willows staff, we would like to thank you for your review. The recent unprecedented period we all find ourselves in has been extremely trying for all staff involved and as a team they have continued to provide the care and support with the utmost compassion and dedication.
We hope to see you very soon and until then, on behalf of the Willows family, please stay safe.

from R I (Husband of Resident) published on 8 June 2020 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

My wife has been a resident at Willows for 16 months and has received excellent care and love. As I live some 20 odd miles away from the care home, her stay was originally for a short period until a place could be found nearer to home. However, she is so happy at Willows it was decided not to move her,

a decision I have not regretted. I am so grateful for the kindness shown by staff especially, during this difficult time.

Reply from Clare Sherwin, Compliance manager at The WillowsI would like to thank you for such a positive uplifting review. It is pleasing for all staff involved at Willows Care home to receive such positive feedback with regards to the care and support they provide to residents, especially during these unprecedented times. On behalf of the willows family, we hope to see you soon and please, until then, stay safe.

I have always been very confident that my mother has been well cared for at The Willows. The staff are professional and compassionate, I cannot speak highly enough of them and the management, particularly during the unprecedented challenge of Covid-19 crisis, they responded efficiently. I believe that

the nursing and general care staff did everything possible to keep the residents safe. Whenever I call for information about my mother they always responded immediately.

Reply from Clare Sherwin, Compliance manager at The WillowsMay I take this opportunity to thank you for your review, staff within The Willows care home have been supportive to both residents, families and work colleagues during this unprecedented time which hasn't been easy for the staff, but as a team, they have given 100%. We all understood how hard it is has been for families, and have tried to make this testing time as reassuring as we possibly could for families. The Willows family will continue with the compassion and professionalism of care. From all at The Willows - Thank You and Stay Safe.

My Mum was a resident at The Willows until her death. She had dementia. I cannot praise the staff enough - they looked after my Mum in such a caring way and treated her with the utmost respect. We were made to feel welcome at any time day or night and I couldn't have asked for a more kind and professional

staff, they are truly wonderful. Thank you so very much, from the family and from my mum because I know she would want me to say it.

Overall Experience

Overall, The Willows is very good, clean and staff are really helpful and kind, good food.
I do think more carers are needed as sometimes when wheelchair bound residents need the toilet, they have to wait as not enough staff. Also, there needs to be more entertainment for residents.

Reply from Laura Blythe, Manager at The WillowsThank you for your review. We do offer a full activity programme every day of the week and we appreciate that whilst not all activities are suited to every individual, we do try to vary the programme we offer and try our best to meet individual requests or needs. If there is anything specific that your relative would like to do, please do let us know and we will try our best to facilitate it.
