Overall Experience

We attended the Christmas party organised by the Events team and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Dad was guided to his seat by one of the team and enjoyed a cup of tea whilst Cara sang many festive classics. The buffet was delicious and there was a nice selection of sweet and savoury items. Thank you

so much for a very festive afternoon.

Overall Experience

My father in law has dementia and recently has been struggling more with some of the symptoms.
This has been a huge worry for my wife in particular and he has needed extra care and support. The Foxholes Team has provided this enabling him to remain safe and happy.
Along with the stimulation and daily

activities that Foxholes provides he is treated as an individual plus he has built some wonderful friendships with both staff and other residents.
We are also so welcomed as visitors and family members.
Thank you so much Foxhloes you are a unique organisation.

Foxholes Care Home
from V G (Respite Resident) published on 9 December 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

I had 2 weeks of respite care after back surgery. There were plenty of activities, but I was unable to join any physical ones. The garden allowed gentle walking, my only 'permitted' activity. My meals were custom prepared due to an intolerance of fat/oil ingredients. An excellent fireworks display took

place on 5/11/25 to my delight, as I presumed I would miss out this year.

Overall Experience

i would definitely recommend Foxhole Care Home as they offer a 5 star service in every area of an individuals daily care home requirements. The management and staff are always extremely professional, giving first class customer service in hospitality and medical care. The residents rooms and communal

areas are luxurious in both design and comfort, with cleanliness being of the highest standard at all times.
The weekly activity programme is both varied and fun, including daily exercise, quiz's and musical entertainment. Foxholes always celebrate special anniversary occasions such as Christmas and Bonfire Night with great style. and the outside gardens are superb. Every member of the team always make me feel like part of the family when i visit my mother, who has happily lived at Foxholes for the past 3 years.

from Marion C (Daughter of Resident) published on 10 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My experience with my mum being at Foxholes care home is superb.
I notice all mums needs and wishes being met with kindness , compassion and safety by all the staff.
It is a beautiful, clean and well cared for environment with sunny airy places to sit both inside and outside in the gorgeous gardens.
Mum

can join in a variety of activities daily if she chooses to. Care is taken to make everyone welcome and comfortable to join in.
Mum first went to stay for 2 weeks to give me respite and for her to see how she felt. She never wanted to leave! She says she loves her room and has a seat at her window to watch the gardens and even other residents walk around.
I feel very welcome and at home when I visit and have got to know lots of the staff and other residents which is important as I visit twice a week.
Overall the best decision mum has made at this point in her life.

Foxholes Care Home
from Norma A (Friend of Resident) published on 28 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Our friend was living alone in his apartment and finding it increasingly difficult to manage. It was decided that he really needed to find a Care Home suitable for his needs. He is highly intelligent and always been independent but circumstances change as older age takes over. We went with him to visit

a few care homes locally but most seemed to cater for Ladies playing Bingo. When we went to Foxholes it was a totally different experience. A very welcoming Reception and atmosphere, a very family feel . All the staff were smiling and obviously very happy with their working environment. We couldn't recommend Foxholes highly enough and we enjoy going to visit him there.are

from Jackie A (Daughter of Resident) published on 1 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Choosing a Care Home for our Dad has been one of the biggest decisions we have ever made as a family.
Care Homes don't always have the best image but the moment we walked through the doors of Foxholes we were blown away.
The building and grounds are beautiful with the most stunning countryside views,

happy staff and smiling residents. Frothy coffees being served in the orangery and an ice cream machine for the residents to help themselves to throughout the day!
Unprompted, visiting family members praised Foxholes and reassured us we were making a decision we wouldn't regret.
Activities at least twice a day.. a movie night, 'pub night', weekly gentlemen's lunch (restaurant quality food) as well as family events which have been fabulous!
Most importantly Dad is treated as an individual and the whole team have gone above and beyond to maintain his identity and make him feel at home. A VERY special place.. Mum would have been proud of our choice because Dad was her world..

The home provides a wonderful homes for its residents , not only the furnishings , the beautiful setting with luxury gardens but from the management , the carers , the chefs, the housekeeping

Review of
Sloe Hill
from Anthony M (Son of Resident) published on 10 April 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My mother has been at Sloe Hill for the past 10 months. The care she receives there is excellent. The home is small and friendly and has a real family feel to it. The atmosphere is peacful and the home itself is in beautiful surroundings with a large garden.
The carers are really attentive and cater

for needs perfectly. My mother is really happy there and tells me how good the carers are (she would let me know very quickly if they weren't!) which brings great peace of mind that she is being looked after 24/7.
On the whole, Sloe Hill has been the perfect choice for my mother's care.

Sloe Hill
from Terry B (Son of Resident) published on 10 April 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Following an initial visit, Mum knew instantly that Sloe Hill was where she wanted to be. The professional and friendly team have made her very welcome and Mum is very content in her new home. There is always a friendly welcome when we visit too.
Many activities are organised to which residents are

encouraged to attend, as they are able and if they wish to. The food is all freshly prepared and cooked with personal dietary requirements carefully taken into account. The care is personal and attentive, nothing is too much trouble and if she needs anything, she only has to ask. It is comforting to know that Mum is happy, content, being well looked after and in very safe hands.
Sloe Hill is a clean, comfortable and friendly home, run by a happy, caring and professional team.

Overall Experience

As mum was my last remaining relative and I currently live in Australia, it was a pleasure visiting my dying mother whilst she was at Foxholes. It was a three month journey and although it was difficult for my mother who was a very independent and strong willed woman, she was always treated with respect

and dignity by the staff. As mum did not want to pass away in hospital, it was up to Foxholes to provide end of care and I am very happy with all the staff's efforts and attention to my mother. It was very reassuring to know that there would always be someone there for mum 24/7.

Reply from Neil Gandecha, Director at Foxholes Care HomeThank you so much for taking the time to share your experience at Foxholes. We're deeply honoured to have supported both you and your mother during such an important and emotional time. Your reassurance in our 24-hour care and the respect and compassion your mother received from our team is incredibly meaningful to us.We noticed you rated our food and dining slightly lower than other aspects. As we strive for excellence in all areas, we'd genuinely appreciate any specific feedback or suggestions you may have, so we can continually enhance our service.Thank you again for your kind words and trust in our care. It was our privilege to support you and your mother during such an important time.

Foxholes Care Home
from Keith L (Son of Resident) published on 17 March 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Mum didn't want to go into a care home, but Foxholes was different. Unlike a corporation Foxholes is a family owned, family run home so mum was able to furnish and personalise her room. It looked much like her front lounge. We were also able to come and go as if visiting her at home, as were her many

friends. The staff were lovely, patient and professional. Mum was assigned a key worker, but all the carers popped in to say hello. She was never alone. She had a lovely room overlooking the landscaped garden. Activities were laid on both morning and afternoon. Some, like Irish dancing, or bringing an owl in, seemed to be done especially for mum. Towards the end, mum was cared for exceptionally well. She was warm, comfortable and pain free with regular checks by the GP. And when we needed to be there by her bedside, we were made welcome and looked after too. It made mum's passing more bearable, as were the messages of support and condolences from the staff, carers, residents and owners.

Foxholes Care Home
from Debra S (Daughter of Resident) published on 5 March 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My mum was very reluctant to leave her own home, but when she saw Foxholes with its spacious and pristine facilities and the beautiful grounds, she was happy to take up residence there. The warmth and compassion shown by all staff was outstanding, and I always felt my mum was in extremely safe hands.

When any (very minor) issue arose, it was dealt with promptly and taken seriously, thus ensuring that my mum felt that she had a voice and was among people who cared.
The very full programme of activities, catering to every taste, was impressive, and helped create the positive atmosphere that is immediately noticeable on entering the building. In her final days my mum needed full nursing care, and I will always be grateful for the way that she - and my husband and I - were supported at this difficult time. Staff were professional and immensely kind. I fully recommend Foxholes; if I can spend my twilight years in somewhere anything like as good as this, I will consider myself blessed!

Sloe Hill
from Yvonne B (Sister of Resident) published on 17 February 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My sister was in a care home that was closing down. She had been in this care home for 11 years and it was in a different part of the country. The change was a big upheaval for her. The staff at Sloe Hill are very kind and made sure that my sister felt comfortable straight away and eased the settling-in

period. Nearly a year later my sister is contented and the experienced staff know how to cater to her individual needs. Sloe Hill is quiet which is perfect for someone who just needs a secure peaceful environment. I am very happy with the care my sister is receiving.

from Martin W (Son-in-law of Resident) published on 11 November 2024 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My experience with Foxholes is very good. My father-in-law for the past 18 months has been looked after in a very caring, attentive and supportive manner. Nothing seems to be too much trouble for the staff. The home is very well run by a close family who are always around and are very approachable to

answer any questions.
The home is kept very clean throughout and is freshly decorated regularly. The food always looks delicious and is served and presented nicely. Although my father-in-law cannot get involved in all of the full program of activities the ones that he can enjoy are the many involving live music. All in all, we are very pleased with his care and can highly recommend Foxholes.

Reply from Neil Gandecha, Director at Foxholes Care HomeThank you for your lovely review. We're so pleased your father-in-law feels well cared for and that you appreciate our family-run approach. We also appreciate your honest feedback and note your 4-star ratings for staff and care/support. We're always looking to improve, so if there's anything we can do better, we'd love to hear your thoughts.

Overall Experience

My dear dad has been in Foxholes care for over a year. He is a true gentleman aged 94 with specific needs. I feel most grateful that he has the best of care in his final years. The Foxholes team treat him with kindness and respect, fine-tuning his needs in a gentle and happy manner. When you walk into

Foxholes you could easily be walking into the reception of a five-star hotel. A beautiful place and set in beautiful grounds with views of the countryside. The home is run by a close-knit family who are constantly around to offer their support. There is always a smile to be shared. There is a weekly program of ever-changing activities. Mealtimes are exceptional with freshly prepared choices, accompanied by a glass of wine if preferred. Families are welcome to join for mealtimes too. Birthdays are celebrated with a homemade cake and a party atmosphere. Calendar events are also given the very best of celebrations. "A big thank you" to the Foxholes team you are an outstanding care home!

Reply from Neil Gandecha, Director at Foxholes Care HomeThank you for your wonderful review. It means so much to hear how well your dad is cared for and that you feel confident he's in the best hands. Our team takes great pride in creating a warm, respectful, and happy environment for our residents, and we're delighted that you've experienced this firsthand. We truly appreciate your kind words and support.

from Anne M (Daughter of Resident) published on 23 October 2024 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

My mother has been a resident at Foxholes Care Home for the past five years. It was her decision to sell her home and move into Foxholes as her sight, hearing and mobility deteriorated. Having been independent the adjustment to living in a community where all her needs were met was not easy. The staff

understood this and treated her with understanding and compassion. The rooms and facilities inside and out are excellent and most importantly the staff are very capable and kind. The meals and snacks are appetising and presented in an attractive fashion. It is like living in a five-star hotel. There are daily activities and although mother cannot always take part the staff includes her and she is not left alone in her room. Now at 100 years old, she is happy and content. What more could the family ask?

Reply from Neil Gandecha, Director at Foxholes Care HomeThank you for your kind words and for trusting us with your mother's care. We're delighted that she feels happy and supported at Foxholes. Knowing she is comfortable and included means so much to us. We truly appreciate your feedback and are always here if you need anything.

Overall Experience

My mother lived at Foxholes from November 2019 until July 2024, whilst she was bravely battling dementia. She was treated with respect, kindness and patience by all the staff during that time, for which I am truly grateful. She was gently encouraged to join in activities and particularly enjoyed ones

involving music. There were also regular events for the family to attend with her, which were well organised and most enjoyable. During her final few days many of the staff popped in to see her. The care she received during that time, and the kindness, compassion and support we, as a family, were shown really was second to none. I can't thank the staff enough. I will never forget their kindness. They deserve the highest recommendation.

Reply from Neil Gandecha, Director at Foxholes Care HomeThank you so much for taking the time to leave such a heartfelt review. It means the world to us to know that your mother received the care, respect, and kindness she deserved during her time with us at Foxholes. It was a privilege to care for her, and we are deeply touched by your words. It brings us comfort to know that our team's support provided solace to you and your family. We will make sure to pass on your lovely comments to everyone involved in your mother's care.
