My mother has nearly one year in Primrose, Felling, Gateshead. Teething trouble at first but she is very settled now. The staff love her singing, though me and my sister didn't want to let her go, we feel it was the best decision for her needs.

My mam is well cared for and the staff do genuinely seem to care for her. The third floor has recently been decorated and it's lovely and bright and clean. The food is always well presented and my mam always seems to enjoy her meals. My mam is always well presented and clean.
Staff are always welcoming.

Dad stayed at Croft Dene for four weeks following hip surgery, and with the support of all the staff he settled in wonderfully. The home is well managed, and every member of the team is friendly, helpful, and genuinely caring. Staff consistently go above and beyond, always willing to listen to any concerns
and were unfailingly kind and welcoming each time we visited. A big thank you to everyone at Croft Dene.

Primrose House Care Home

from M L (Partner of Resident) published on 17 February 2026
Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
As said in my previous review of Primrose House most of the staff are great, very friendly and genuinely care for residents, however he has deteriorated very quickly and probably needs more care than when he first went in, his room is awful now and very run down as most of the building is, its very
outdated and to be fair to the cleaning staff who do an amazing job they aren't responsible for the upkeep and maintenance of the place. Im aware that the 3rd floor is being decorated but I do hope thats not all that is being done, this seems to be taking a very long time. Im hoping my partner can be moved to a cleaner and more pleasant room and more of his care needs be met. Im afraid my opinion of the managers (NOT the senior carers) is not a good one, i feel they do not interact with the residents and its left to the carers and staff who do an outstanding job.

Primrose House Care Home

from K R (Grandson of Resident) published on 5 February 2026
Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
Primrose Care Home is possibly the worst care home in the North East. It is dirty, dated and has rudest staff I've ever known. The staff don't know the meaning of care. Items of my relative have gone missing. For example her glasses (2 pairs ) are nowhere to be seen but my relative cannot leave her
room so it can't be down to her that they have gone missing. The manager doesn't do anything to resolve any issues we have raised with her. Over the last few visits I have witnessed staff members put my relative in danger, which is not acceptable.
Reply from Bernadette Cromwell, Head of Marketing at Primrose House Care HomeThank you for sharing your feedback. We're truly sorry to hear about your concerns and want to assure you they are being taken seriously. We would welcome the opportunity for you to speak directly with the Home Manager, who can help address and resolve any concerns as quickly as possible. The wellbeing of our residents is our highest priority, and we remain fully committed to delivering the high standard of care we are known for.

My mam has been here since September 2019 and is definitely one of The Mews family. Her carers are always smiling, engaging and treat Mam with dignity. I feel comfortable with The Mews looking after Mam, with a special shout out to senior carers who know my Mam so well. Thank you for your care and empathy.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Both of my parents have lived here for two years and we have found the care to be excellent. The staff are lovely and very attentive. If I was to give some suggestions to improve the home it would be to install foam edging on sharp corners of furniture and dado rails to limit injuries to residents.
Secondly, I would suggest that a member of staff be stationed in the lounge to keep an eye on residents trying to move around.

It was a very difficult decision when my father needed to go into care, but I know that choosing Blossom Hill was 100% the right choice. There was never a day that when I visited my father he was not being well cared for. He was always immaculately dressed, something I know would have been important
to him. He was treated with great care & dignity. The home was always clean & well maintained. I am so very grateful to all the staff at Blossom Hill.

The Mews Care Home

from J M (Daughter of Resident) published on 28 January 2026
Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This is a situation no family wants to find themselves in, but the manager has made it a far more positive experience than we ever expected. From my first visit, it was clear that his approach shapes the care at The Mews. His explanation of the 6 GEMS Approach to Dementia Care showed a real understanding
of the individual behind the condition.


This is my dad's third care home. He has not yet received a formal diagnosis of dementia but experiences significant cognitive difficulties and episodes of delirium. Previous placements resulted in hospital admissions, so our biggest concern as a family was how he would be treated and whether he would be kept safe and cared for with compassion.


What has stood out most is how my dad is supported when he believes he is at work, which happens often. Rather than correcting him, the manager calmly reassures him, again and again, with patience and kindness, while staying grounded in truth. My dad is seen as a person, not a condition.

Staff are very attentive and caring. My only issues are both relating to safety. 1. Lots of sharp edges on furniture, dado rails etc. which is not ideal from a safety perspective. 2. In my opinion, as long as there are patients in the lounge, there should be a member of staff, as most are unsteady on
their feet and often try to get up of their seat by themselves.
