Bernash Care Home

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum moved into Bernash at the end of 2025. It was an upsetting decision and time for our family. However, any doubts or concerns I had were quickly gone. The staff are all kind, caring and considerate to both the residents and visitors. My mum has 24 hour care and the company of staff, other residents
and the many visitors that visit Bernash daily. The staff have taken the time to get to know my mum, her likes and dislikes.


The home itself is warm and clean. Any questions you have are answered and everyone is happy to help. Activities are run for the residents to help keep them motivated and alert and visitors are invited to join in. Special occasions such as birthdays etc are celebrated and each resident gets their special day. A nurse goes to the home weekly to check on the residents and will help with any health queries i might have about my mum. They also have a hairdresser who visits the home and for a reasonable fee they will wash, cut and blow dry the residents.

Reply from Shelley Turnbull, Manager at Bernash Care HomeThank you so much for your kind review. We understand that moving a loved one into care can be a very emotional time, so it means a great deal to know that you feel reassured and supported by our team.

We moved our mum into Bernash in January this year. We were so upset at having to make the decision but the staff have been wonderful. The care is amazing, the staff are so lovely and the place feels homely. My mum is happy, well cared for and eating so much better than when she was at home. The
residents have plenty to do and there are always lots of activities planned. Residents families are made to feel welcome to visit at any time.

We were worried about putting mum into care but the staff at Bernash have been absolutely fantastic. Lots of activities and staff go above and beyond. Home always clean and tidy and the care for residents is fantastic. I can now spend quality time with mum. The staff quickly get to know each resident
and encourage them to join in with everyone. They also celebrate days such as valentines and make each resident feel special and welcome.

My Mum has been in Little Croft since August. The care home provides exceptional care in a warm, welcoming environment. The staff are compassionate, attentive, and always go above and beyond to make residents feel valued and comfortable. The home is beautifully maintained, with lovely gardens and excellent
food. There's a real sense of community, and families are kept fully informed. It's reassuring to know our loved one is in such capable, caring hands-truly a home from home.
Reply from Lisa Fryar, Manager at Little Croft Care HomeThank you so much for your extremely kind words.

My Dad had a 6 week respite break which then became permanent at the beginning of March. He is so happy at the care home, he now has people around him that look after him which is what he has needed for such a long time. The staff are amazing, always friendly and more than happy to help. They deal with
Dad with utmost respect and provide activities to keep him entertained. The management team keep me informed of any visits by the doctor and any other issues that may arise. When Dad is happy, we are all very happy!
Thank you to all at Little Croft.

Nice care home and staff very friendly and helpful. The care home is very well decorated to give it a home feeling. The only downfall is there is nothing around to take the residents out like for a coffee etc.
Reply from Lisa Fryar, Manager at Little Croft Care HomeThank you for this kind and lovely review, I look forward to sharing this with the care staff. There is a railway station which has a nice cafe and it is walking distance from the home, if you ask the care staff they will help with directions with the easiest route. Best wishes

We have moved my mum in Jan 2025 to the home. We have been very impressed with the care she has received. There are plenty of activities for her to join in with. They decorate the home depending on whats being celebrated ie - valentines, Easter, mothers day. It makes it looking very cheerful. If anything
has happened to mum they will ring and inform me of whats happened. Very happy that mum has moved here.

My mother-in-law moved to this home in Jan 2025. We have been very impressed with the level of care she has received. Nothing is too much trouble and she is well looked after. It can be very stressful moving loved ones into a home but the staff have helped us all the way. There are lots of activities
for her to join in with and there is always something going on. They decorate the home when celebrating different holidays which make it.

Little Croft Care Home

from Martyn K (Son of Resident) published on 7 April 2025
Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother first went into the Little Croft Care Home in February 2022 for respite care. However, it quickly became apparent that it would be impossible for my mother to live on her own again, so her stay became permanent.


In total my mother spent three years in the home, she died earlier this month

aged 95. During that period she at all times received the most outstanding care. The manager and her team provided the most caring and considerate environment possible. To say my mother was well looked after would be a huge understatement. Often when we visisted she would be sitting in the communal lounge and staff walking by would wave to her to say hello. One important aspect of her care was the quality of the food. My mother always looked forward to her meals and had nothing but the highest praise for the food provided.


We could not have picked a better care home.

Reply from Lisa Fryar, Manager at Little Croft Care HomeThank you so much for this lovely review, it is very much appreciated and I look forward to sharing this with the staff. Looking after your mother was a great pleasure and she already is missed by all. Again thank you for the kind words you have shared. Best wishes

My mother moved into Little Croft in December 2024. From day one the care and love she received was exceptional. The team supported my mother for nearly one and half years which gave the family the confidence that mum was safe and cared for. The team at Little Croft supported mum with all her needs,
food and medication and with love they accepted if she was difficult from time to time. Mum loved her time in Little Croft. Mum passed away in early March and the family are very grateful to everyone in Little Croft for their support and care.

My mum has dementia and went in for a little respite and 6months later still at Bernash. The manager and the team are amazing and made the whole transition as smoothly as possible. The place is clean and tidy . Home cooked food and activities always going on .
If it wasn't for Bernash I'm not sure
what situation my mum would have been in now . I can now enjoy quality time with mum rather than being her carer , she is safe and I sleep much better at night knowing she has the support and care 24/7 which I'm unable to provide .

My Dad did not want to go into a care home, he had been independent since my Mum died and was adamant that he could look after himself, but after a stay in hospital it was clear that he could not go back home.
He did not make life easy for the staff at Bernash but they were unfailing patient in caring
for him and eventually they won him over.
As a family we were very happy with the care he received at Bernash. The staff are great and there always appeared to be a happy and settled team on who they understood the needs of the residents.

I visited recently and was not looking forward to it as my grandmother had been moved into Bernash Care Home.
I should have had no worries at all as the service was amazing and the care shown to my family member was of the best quality.
The staff really care - especially the manager who has the patience

My grandmother has settled well and I now know that she is in the best place and in the safest pair of hands.

My mother has been living in Bernash Care Home for about six months. The prospect of transferring her from her own home into care was distressing, but as soon as the manager and her team were involved they did everything they could to carry the burden of the process, taking exceptional care of my mother
and us as a family, making the move as easy as possible for all concerned. Staff's expertise is reassuring. This really is a ‘care’ home. Every member of staff, whether the manager, the care team/leaders, or those responsible for finance, catering, maintenance or cleaning, are friendly and seem to really know and care for my mother, understanding her unique needs, behaviours and interests and giving her time and attention. Bernash is welcoming to family and friends, and open and thorough in its communication. I have visited quite a few specialist care facilities, but none have compared with Bernash in terms of the sense of family and genuine feeing of ‘home’ that it provides.
