Pear Tree House
from David S (Son of Resident) published on 15 September 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

My mother has been a resident for over a year. She is settled and enjoys the friendly, caring support of all the staff. The rooms are fully fitted to a high standard with excellent en-suite bathrooms. The whole building is maintained in 'as new' condition. It is a pleasure to visit as I always feel

welcome.

Review of
Pear Tree House
from Karen M (Daughter of Resident) published on 3 September 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Very very sad to see mum at Pear Tree house today. It was 11 o clock she was struggling to eat cold scrambled egg, nearly edible beans and cold toast . She had not drunk some juice that had been left on a table to far away to reach.
Three pairs of pee soaked pants were in a fruit bowl and no brushes,

toothpaste or mouth rinse were in bathroom. There was black mold in the fridge and the overall standard of cleaning was very low.
Overall it was very disappointing, considering she has been classed a a sexual predator after being found in a man's bed after 'wandering'. None of this information has been related to me by staff. I realise I have to report this and am now hoping to move her. As far as I can see she has had little or no care socially, has attended no events and is left to her own devices. Please tell me seeing this with my own eyes it is not the case.

Reply from Amy Batchelor, Customer Relations Manager at Pear Tree HouseThank you for taking the time to share your concerns, we are truly sorry to hear about your recent experience, and we fully appreciate how upsetting this must have been for you.Please be assured that we take all feedback very seriously, and everything you've raised has been thoroughly reviewed with the relevant teams.

We are also actively working on improving communication with families and ensuring that every resident has access to appropriate social interaction and meaningful activity.

from P D (Respite Resident) published on 21 August 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

I spent 2 weeks at Pear Tree House Care Home. I chose to stay there because my son, who is my carer, and his family needed a holiday. The 2-week stay at Pear Tree House certainly gave me a holiday and I would most certainly not hesitate to stay again.

Pear Tree House
from Andrea C (Daughter of Resident) published on 21 July 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My mum has been a resident at Pear Tree House for three months now and I can wholeheartedly recommend this excellent care home.
My mum resisted going into residential care, even though it was necessary. The staff here have been absolutely brilliant in helping my mum settle in to her new surroundings

and feel welcome in her new home.
Everything is taken care of. Everything, from medical attention to dietary preferences to entertainment. This means that I have complete confidence that my mum is receiving the best of care and attention.
The rooms and facilities are modern and well appointed.
The ratio of staff to residents is generous, and there has always been ample professional care available. Whenever I have a question or feedback, the staff on duty have always been extremely helpful and motivated. My mum is happier, better cared for, and has made friends there. I highly recommend this excellent home.

Reply from Amy Batchelor, Customer Relations Manager at Pear Tree HouseThank you so much for your heartfelt and thoughtful review. We understand how big a transition it can be for both residents and their families when moving into residential care, and it means the world to us to hear that your mum has settled in well and feels at home here at Pear Tree House.Our team takes great pride in delivering person centered care, so your recognition of their efforts is really appreciated. We're especially pleased to know that your mum is happy, well cared for, and has started forming friendships.Thank you

Meadow Croft
from Ian A (Resident) published on 13 May 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

This was my first experience in staying in a care home so was uncertain as had visited a number of such in the past and these were genreally not impressive. I need not have worried as this was the exception. A modern building with good features outside and excellent interior design inside. The staff

were very caring, the food was good and the activities most stimulative. I will probably return after this initial 2 week visit.

Reply from Diane Langford, Registered Manager at Meadow CroftThank You for your lovely review of our home, we are glad that your stay was such a positive experience for you, we look forward to seeing you again un the future. Take care

from S S (Daughter of Resident) published on 9 May 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

We first met the Manager.
She was professional, friendly and very welcoming.
My mum has been in for 2 weeks. She has vascular dementia. She has been welcomed and settled in during the last couple of weeks.
I feel my mother is treated with dignity.
My brother visited and fell poorly before he went

to see my mother. The manager and her team looked after my brother until we could manage to get him to the hospital.

Reply from Amy Batchelor, Customer Relations Manager at Pear Tree HouseThank you for your wonderful review i am so pleased you mum has settled in so well at Pear Tree House. Our team pride themselves on delivering outstanding care and i am so pleased your brother also received this. I hope he is now feeling better.

I have been a resident for 4 weeks and have found my stay very pleasant and physically I have improved considerably. The staff have been very pleasant and supportive and the facilities are excellent. I have not taken part in many of the activities.
The food has generally been reasonable but occasionally

not to my taste.

Overall Experience

Pear Tree House in Wesham is a first class care home. Excellent staff/food/carers/nurses. Nothing is too much trouble and I have been impressed by the organisation of my mum's care. Pear Tree is the best home I have seen and know that everything is being done for mum's wellbeing/comfort/quality of life.

No reservations in recommending Pear Tree.

Overall Experience

My grandad is well supported by caring staff who have worked to develop a connection with him. I feel reassured he is looked after by competent and trained staff. His room is clean and modern. The food seems to be of good quality, his only complaint would be that there should be more lamb on the menu.

Reply from Amy Batchelor, Customer Relations Manager at Meadow CroftThank you for your wonderful review, I am so pleased your Grandad has settled so well at Meadow Croft and you reassured me he is well cared for. Thank you for your feedback regarding the food, I will ensure this is shared with our chef and catering team. Thank you.

Pear Tree House
from Debbie T (Daughter of Resident) published on 18 February 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My mum has stayed for respite periods of up to 8 weeks at a time (for roughly 2 years now) and she has always been well cared for and treated with respect. The rooms at The Pear Tree House are homely, modern and clean and have comfy beds, TVs, mini-fridge, ensuite bathroom and nice views of the garden.

The premises are always kept clean and tidy and they have a lobby that resembles a hotel lobby. There are no unpleasant odours and it always smells fresh. The Pear Tree was decorated in a lovely fashion at Christmas which is fantastic for residents and relatives. There is a hair salon, small cinema and several lounges, garden rooms and dining areas. Food is lovely and residents have menus for breakfast, lunch and dinner and a snack menu which can be requested. The care home has good and easy access to GPs, chiropodists and opticians, so this is a major benefit. The home is also secure, so people can't leave or have access without staff permission. I feel very content for them to look after my mum.

Pear Tree House
from J W (Daughter of Resident) published on 31 January 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Pear Tree House is a lovely warm, welcoming place with a sincerely caring staff. Each resident is treated with great respect and as an individual, any idiosyncrasies are known and dealt with without problem. Every person employed there knows the name of each resident and engages readily with them, they

are also kind and helpful to visitors.
My Dad has been a resident since November 2024 and I am confident that he is happy and content there. His strength has improved and he is encouraged to do what he is able to do with the knowledge and reassurance that there is always somebody there to help. His carers have given him back his dignity, he is well-groomed, neat and tidy.
Any health issues are dealt with immediately and we are kept well informed of any concerns. The facilities are excellent and the home is constantly being cleaned so it is spotless. The availability and choice of food is amazing with a very dedicated catering staff. I would not hesitate to recommend Pear Tree House.

from Kate B (Daughter of Resident) published on 30 January 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Mum is being very well looked after and all the staff seem to be genuinely fond of her. The home is spotless and all the staff are kind, courteous, professional and caring. It's very difficult "handing over care" of a much-loved parent to someone else and it takes time for a relative to settle down,

probably more so than for mum. I know that she's safe and being well looked after.
