Review of Avocet Court Care Home from Mandy E (Daughter of Resident) published on 28 July 2026 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
Mum settled in very well. Staff have been very good, pleasant & kind, there so much care giving. She's always clean & smiling. And looks like she's put on a bit of weight. We love the 'cafe' and its a pleasant gift to know that you are generous with lovely coffee & cakes. We have had nice walks around the court, and I feel happy to leave Mum knowing she's well cared for.

Review of Avocet Court Care Home from J T (Daughter of Resident) published on 23 July 2026 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
I can't thank the manager and staff enough for the exceptional care they provide. The manager was more than helpful-she was absolutely brilliant in what was an incredibly stressful situation, offering support, guidance, and reassurance throughout. Every member of staff has been friendly, approachable, and genuinely helpful, even while caring for a loved one with dementia who can be very challenging at times. Their patience, kindness, and professionalism have been outstanding. The food is excellent-I'd happily eat there myself every day! The home is always clean, the rooms are well maintained, and the safety and security are top-notch, giving us complete peace of mind.
There are always activities taking place to keep residents engaged and entertained. Both of my loved ones who have lived there, including one who has sadly since passed away, were genuinely happy and well cared for. Knowing they were treated with such dignity, compassion, and respect means more than words can express.

Overall Experience
As a partner of one of your residents I must say how impressed I am with Avocet Court when my friend was admitted I was very worried but shouldn't have been. The care given is amazing so is the quality and choice of food. We have found the staff are excellent so friendly and caring. Everywhere is kept so clean and it really is a pleasure to visit. I must say how lovely to visit the cafe and I give thanks to the caring receptionists as I struggle with my mobility they have been so very helpful.

Review of Alex Wood House from Caroline H (Respite Resident) published on 14 July 2026 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
This was my husbands first respite stay and I have to say I was very nervous and worried about it! I chose Alex Wood House as I was recommended it for its caring staff, I think this was evident from the start! We were welcomed and settled in. I kept in touch by phone and was always reassured that he was fine without glossing over his more challenging moments! This may not be the most glamorous of homes but if you are looking for a "home from home" this could be it!
↩Reply from Bernie Burr, Deputy Manager at Alex Wood House
Thank you so much for your great review about Alex Wood House following your husbands stays with us. It was a pleasure to have him stay and we look forward to welcoming him again soon should you need us. Thanks again for taking the time to leave this review. Your kind words really mean a lot!

Review of Alex Wood House from Fran S (Daughter of Resident) published on 13 July 2026 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
My Stepdad moved into Alexwood House in Sep 25. It was a really difficult decision to make but his alzheimers esp. at night time was becoming harder for my mum to manage. It'd be fair enough to say that it wasn't a happy decision for us. I visited Alexwood House and chatted to Lance and the Manager, Julie who showed us round and let us choose what was initially a respite room. He took a while to settle but immediately we observed better medical attention which he wasn't getting from his local GP. The staff are kind and the rooms are very clean. The home puts on a number of activities for residents to enjoy with Jan happily doing his bit. He has a good appetite and the meals are always good.
The staff are also kind to my mum when she visits each week and we enjoy a chat with them and the other residents. We acknowledge that the scheme isnt the most modern but when you're paying for care, finding a home with consistent staffing and kindness count.

Review of Amberley Hall Care Home from A H (Son of Resident) published on 9 July 2026 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
My mum (97) had been living independently with assistance but fell and broke her wrist. She was sent from hospital to Amberley Hall for rehabilitation, mum already had cognitive issues but in general i would say that all staff treated her well and with respect. At any time there was concerns for her health the home contacted a nurse or GP and kept me up to date via the telephone. I was always made welcome on my regular visits to see mum. Thank you.

Mum was sent to Amberley for rehabilitation after a stay in hospital. Her room was bright, clean and met her needs. NHS rehab staff were very active, trying to get individuals mobile again. The team leaders kept us informed of any notable points and were very approachable. The care staff are very friendly and made mum very welcome and made her short stay as pleasant as possible. The cafe is an ideal place for visitors to join up with loved ones.

We came for a celebration in one of the community areas. The lady in car park was very helpful and polite, and walked us around. Inside, we met the rest of our group. The staff were nice but very over the top in my opinion - pictures of this, pictures for that, wanting to promote. The food was a good mixture, but hot food plate cold. The place was well decorated and generally clean. Staff just seemed nice but over the top - as if for display with family/friends.

I cannot thank the care home enough for the amazing care, kindness, and support they give to every resident. They truly focus on each individual person's needs and always go above and beyond to help residents feel safe, valued, and important.The staff take the time to make every resident comfortable and ensure all of their needs are met, no matter their circumstances. Even residents who are bed bound are still included, engaged, and treated with dignity and compassion. It means so much to families knowing their loved ones are never forgotten and are always cared for with patience and understanding.There are always lots of activities and opportunities to keep residents busy, happy, and involved. The staff are incredibly caring, patient, and kind, and they build genuine relationships with both residents and families.
