Harbour Manor is a beautiful care home. Spotlessly clean, staff are friendly and helpful and the residents seem very happy. it is light and airy and feels more like a hotel than a care home. Residents are given the opportunity to be involved in lots of activities, which helps pass the time. I would
definitely recommend Harbour Manor.

The care my mother-in-law receives it second to none.


The staff are friendly and caring, always greet you with a warm welcome.


They have regular meetings for residents to listen to what they would like to do or if something can be changed to better fit their needs.

My friend and neighbour moved into Harbour Manor about two weeks ago and this is the first opportunity I have had to visit him. He has settled in nicely and is quite content with his life. The staff are so friendly and welcoming, and the building which I know is nigh on brand new, is immaculate and
spotlessly clean.

Water jug not changed for 3 days. Same sticker was on saying Tuesday, still the same sticker on Friday. No towels left in ensuite.
Clothes missing not marked because the machine was broken. Dad not shaved daily. Dad was in for respite and ended up in hospital after 10 days.
No help when mum went to
clear room of dad's things.
Not sure how good food was as not allowed to visit at meal times.
Mum only met home manager once and dad had been in the home 8 days.

Reply from Amy Batchelor, Customer Relations Manager at Harbour Manor

Thank you for your feedback. I am sorry that you feel your fathers stay fell short of your expectation however at Harbour Manor, we do provide fresh water daily and fresh towels are always available. While mealtimes are protected to ensure a calm environment for our residents, we do offer private dining options for all families. Our staff are trained to monitor residents' well-being and refer promptly to medical professionals when needed. If you wish to discuss further, please do not hesitate to reach out to the general manager.

Moving from your own home to a residential care home is a significant step in life. The Staff at Harbour Manor helped my Mother to realise both the necessity, and benefit of doing so. Their understanding, appreciation and sensitivity to my Mother's needs is a thoroughly positive experience. For my Mother,
and all our family. We are very grateful for the level of care and attention provided by the staff, and the uplifting atmosphere created by them.

My father had also stayed at another care home in Suffolk that I thought was good but this made me realise how excellent Harbour Manor is with outstanding care. I did not have to worry at all about him having respite here. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Made welcome from the moment arrived.
Was a very comfortable stay I will certainly use again. I was trying think of something they could improve on but could not think of anything.

Reply from Amy Batchelor, Customer Relations Manager at Harbour Manor

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a fantastic review for Harbour Manor, I am so pleased your father settled so well and enjoyed his respite stay with us. We will look forward to welcoming dad back to Harbour manor again soon.

From the moment of first contact we were treated with the utmost kindness and consideration. There was no question we asked that went unanswered. All our concerns were addressed and laid to rest. We were assured that my mother would receive the very best of care appropriate to her needs and so it proved
to be. I would say that all the staff there went beyond their job spec to make my mum comfortable and happy in her final days. My gratitude is very long lasting.

My mum, whilst confused at times, is looking better the longer she lives at Harbour Manor. She knows she is looked after and cared for. Long may this

There is a genuine friendliness amongst the staff at Harbour Manor which extends to residents. This shows several things, the home is well run and well managed, and the friendliness extends to the residents who are very well looked after in all respects. The facilities are excellent, of course, but
so is the home's commitment to providing activities for residents. Harbour Manor was recommended by a friend and we have found it all we had hoped for. Another family member who has worked in care homes visited recently and is very complimentary. We made the right choice for my mother and I have no hesitation recommending Harbour Manor.

From the very first visit to Harbour Manor we were so impressed. The rooms are like hotel rooms with plenty of beautifully furnished day rooms for residents to relax in.
My mum moved in and hasn't been this happy and healthy in years.
The activities that are arranged are fantastic and although mum
doesn't join in with all of them she thoroughly enjoys the ones she does, especially the trips out to garden centres and pubs!
The care she receives is wonderful. I cannot recommend Harbour Manor enough. We no longer feel guilty for mum having to go in to a care home as her life has improved in so many ways since moving to Harbour Manor. Thank you to everyone there for all they do.

Reply from Amy Batchelor, Customer Relations Manager at Harbour Manor

Thank you for your fantastic review, I am so pleased how impressed you are with the facilities Harbour Manor has to offer and more importantly how happy mum is. Harbour Manor offers a wide selection of activities both inside and outside the home and it is great to hear how much mum is enjoying them. Thank you.

My mum moved into Harbour Manor two weeks ago, after not being able to settle at another care home.
The facilities are absolutely wonderful, with each resident having their own en-suite wet room.
Mum loved her room straight away, it is so bright and modern.
The care Mum has received so far has
been excellent from all the team at Harbour Manor.
As a family, we have felt so welcome, and nothing is too much trouble.
Thank you to all the team at Harbour Manor, it is so reassuring that Mum is so happy.
I would recommend Harbour Manor to everyone!
