Care Home Owned by The Franklyn Group Ltd in Cumbria

However I could not be more delighted with the service that Stobars Hall has given. The Manager and assistant manager put us at ease from the moment we arrived. Dad's room is beautiful with lovely views, the staff, without exception have been friendly, and respectful to Dad and seem to know him well.
Due to Dad's poor memory, he was reluctant to mix with anyone outside the immediate family, while he lived with us. The staff were consistent, encouraging and after the first 24 hours, Dad made the choice to eat his meals in the dining room.
The experience has been so positive for Dad and myself, that we have made the decision that he will remain there, past his respite period.

of her 100th birthday party was amazing. The care that went into organising her room change was admirable. The day to day care of her physical, social and emotional needs was at a constant high level. The care that was offered to her and myself at the end of her life was sensitive and touching.

A few minor problems about missing clothes and hearing aids were dealt with promptly and efficiently.

a high standard and much better than the carers in hospital .I have had a lovely room with a lovely view . As a wheelchair user there is plenty of accessible areas outside which has greatly helped my recuperation .Closing comment about an earlier review which the resident's family criticised the management,all I can say is that in my experience here ,I don't recognise what they are saying and would recommend the home to family and friends.

as is the family that, during her first year, she has been happy living at the home.

have only great things to say about our experience with every aspect of Stobars Hall. Thank you.

and takes part in activities and even outings in only a few weeks of being in her new home.
I feel that she would have received better care if she had had dementia or Alzheimer's because those residents don't complain.
Overall I feel let down and disappointed and wouldn't recommend Stobars Hall for this type of resident.

were brilliant, thoughtful and understanding. I would recommend and praise the staff and the care provided.

too much trouble for the staff. When we visited, there was lots of singing, and my mother was joining in. It was so good to witness that. The home is beautiful nice antique furniture, and the garden is outstanding. We took Mum out in her wheelchair, and she did enjoy it. I feel confident that my mum is receiving excellent care.

of books and framed prints for the wall, which gave him comfort and familiarity in the last few weeks of his life. At a very difficult time in my life, the manager and her team were a huge help and comfort.

Stobard is very friendly and homely, and my mum receives good care. Friendly and supportive from all staff. Management is excellent and very approachable, and it's reassuring my mum is in good hands. Thank you.

to find when I go, which in turn gives me peace of mind. The manager and staff are wonderful. In fact, she is the happiest I've seen her for years. I cannot praise them enough.

that work, this is the best time to visit.

excellent; above all, the warm, family atmosphere was unmistakable. He had been able to eat very little, but great care was taken to provide nourishing meals and drinks that he could enjoy. And there was a real concern to find out about him as a person. For instance, when they heard of his love of bird-watching; a bird–feeder was attached to his window, and it gave him great pleasure to watch the tits feeding, even on the afternoon before he died. Typically, a small gesture yet richly significant. We, his family also felt included in the Stobars Family: our many phone calls were always welcomed, and any help needed was immediately forthcoming.
