My Father lived at Ashcroft for a little over a year and from day one the staff were absolutely fantastic. They went above and beyond to help my Father settle in and thats just what he did, although he thought he was the boss alot of the time and could be quite bossy the staff loved him and took everything
in their stride. I cant fault any of the staff, reception staff, care staff, domestic staff etc they were all great.
When my Father went into hospital the staff were there supporting Dad and us as a family and when he passed away in hospital the staff were there again. They are so thoughtful and took our feelings into account at all times.
They also made every effort to be at Dads funeral which for us was very special and Dad would have loved that.
So thankyou to all the staff at Ashcroft you are very special people who we will always remember.

Mum has been at Blackwell Care Home for over 3 years now and during that time we have seen both staff and residents come and go. The time Mum has been at the home both herself and us have been fully supported and listened to by management and carers alike.
Mum has been encouraged to be independant
Mum has been encouraged to be independant
but also helped and assisted when needed. As Mums condition worsens the staff are mindful and respectful of her advancing needs. All the staff really do seem to care, this being shown in their attitudes, communication and support they offer.

I could not be happier with the support and care that Ashcroft give to my Dad. He is really happy and settled there and the staff are excellent and really care for his needs. This gives wonderful peace of mind for our family. We cannot speak highly enough of Ashcroft.

My wife was at Ashcroft for two months until passing away du to her illness. From the minute she was admitted the reception staff were so friendly & polite reassuring and any questions were answered swiftly. The staff on the floor were fabulous and when asked for help or assistance they dealt wtih it
swiftly and politely and used discretion all the time. Nothing was a problem and they always encouraged us to just ask for aid no matter what. They always offered me drinks & food as well as feeding my wife and got to have the most friendliest cleaner ever - nothing was a problem and she always went out of her way to help. A big thank you to the all.

The home is modern, extremely clean & tidy & all the staff are very friendly & approachable.
Everyone speaks to you & makes you feel welcome.We felt part of a big family & we were able to relax, knowing Dad was
receiving the best care possible when we weren't there.
Dad was always clean & comfortable & if he wasn't(due to his condition),the carers/nurses rectified this immediately when aware. Dad particularly enjoyed the food which looked well balanced & nutritious.

We are so grateful for the care & patience all the staff have shown our Dad over the last 12 weeks.
We can't fault the service received & would have no hesitation in recommending Ashcroft to anyone needing nursing care. Our needs were fully met &,in our opinion they go the extra mile.
Thank you so much for making a difficult period more bearable due to the care & attention all the Ashcroft staff have shown our family & our dear Dad.

My mum has been a resident since November 2024. She has dementia, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. She has received the utmost care at Hollybank House and been treated with dignity and respect. She requires hoisting always and assistance in feeding. The staff are all kind and patient and speak to
her with great kindness. The home itself is beautifully clean and the food and drink very good. Families are made very welcome and kept informed of their loved ones circumstances. Events are arranged around special occasions which helps to provide quality time with mum. The home and staff let us have a lovely afternoon tea for mum and dad's 60th wedding anniversary. I couldn't ask for better care for my mum and for the support and friendliness we feel as a family in our time of need. Thank you Hollybank.

Really happy and contented with my husband staying at Ashcroft Care Home. I have no complaints at all. I would be totally happy to recommend this home to friends or family. I am really humbled by the love and care given to family as well as loved ones in care. The staff work so hard, from cleaners right

So wonderful! The activity coordinator was so kind and caring. It was lovely to see the wonderful animal activities and other activities that she has put together for all of the residents at the care home. The care home felt like a home away from home, with lots of love and support for everyone. Nothing
was as complicated or difficult to do when asked.
Thank you, everyone.
