Review of The Towans from Sam G (Niece of Resident) published on 30 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My Aunt lived at The Towans for 3 years and was very happy there. She was quite difficult to deal with and they had endless patience which was incredible to see. Although she couldn't talk or type to say what she wanted, they made every effort to work out what she wanted and needed, things that probably Sherlock Holmes and Watson wouldn't be able to work out, but they always seemed to get there in the end! When she became really ill and bed bound they were so caring, she would still have her hair done and her nails painted. They treated her with such respect. Quite a few members of staff would make an effort to spend time with her and sit in bed with her watching TV etc. I cannot praise them highly enough. My Aunt has now died and the family know that she could not have been cared for more, or looked after better than by the outstandingly lovely staff at The Towans and that was a great comfort to the family. My Aunt was lucky to have gone to the Towans, it felt like home.

Reply from Lucy Ledger, Director at The Towans

I have tried several times to respond to this wonderful, heart felt review... it's taken me a while. There are times when the pride of what my family has created at Towans is almost too big to put into words. Watching our team love and care for your dear Aunt was one of them; the personal time...

Review of The Towans from K C (Daughter of Resident) published on 30 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The staff have been very attentive since Dad's eyesight has declined, and his strength declining. They were very quick to respond with incidents regarding slips and falls and have suggested using a falls detection light which keeps him safe and independent for as long as possible.
Communication is always very swift when occasions arise, with clear explanations of what has happened.

I would recommend the Care Home very highly and the staff are always very polite, helpful and understanding.

Reply from Lucy Ledger, Director at The Towans
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, the words from families like yours are what we are most proud of and we know they are a great comfort to others when they are looking for the right setting for their loved ones.

Review of The Towans from Jeannette N (Daughter of Resident) published on 29 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

After a lot of research and visits to many homes, nothing matched the homeliness, attention to detail and overall kindness of the staff at the Towans. My mum had a couple of weeks of respite at the Towans, and another care home closer to where my sister lives, during the year prior to her choosing the Towans for her permanent residential care. Three months later and there are no regrets, she feels that the Towans is her home, rather than her being a resident of a care home. At 96 she is still mobile and is able to go outside into the tranquil gardens or join in with activities in the sitting room. It is the simple things that make such a difference, such as she likes her toast and marmalade before her cornflakes, the milk for which is served in a little jug so that the cornflakes don't get soggy. The staff are always friendly and went out of their way to help both mum and me during the transition period.

Reply from Lucy Ledger, Director at The Towans
What can we say to this, such a thoughtful review that really makes doing what we do worth while. The recognition for the little things as well s the big things is really appreciated, we often say the little things matter hugely.

It is a pleasure and something I am very proud of to be able to...

Review of The Towans from Caroline P (Daughter of Resident) published on 29 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My mother received exceptional care and support throughout her stay. Staff were attentive to her individual needs and always treated her with kindness, dignity, and respect. They promptly identified changes in her medical condition, acted quickly, and kept our family fully informed, which was greatly reassuring.
The home had a friendly and welcoming atmosphere, and staff consistently went above and beyond to ensure both my mother and our family felt supported and cared for.
My mother enjoyed the activities, especially bingo, which she loved winning! She also enjoyed spending time in the conservatory reading or playing games on her phone, and staff were always happy to help with any technical issues.

We are truly grateful for the compassion, professionalism, and dedication shown by all the staff.

Reply from Lucy Ledger, Director at The Towans

Review of The Towans from Hilary P (Wife of Resident) published on 29 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

This home is run by an excellent team and never had a problems. My husband loves going there. He thinks it's his job and the staff treat him with respect. Always helpful and smiling. The activities is a wonderful addition to the care and they have a mixture of things to do. You can either join in or not no pressure. You can always seek a member of staff who are very approachable if you want to ask anything and the general atmosphere is calming and caring.

Overall Experience

My father has been at The Towans for 5 years and I cannot fault the care he has received. His health has declined over the course of this year and the staff have gone above and beyond to ensure his comfort and safety. I cannot recommend The Towans highly enough, the home has a great atmosphere, it is a genuine home from home.

Overall Experience

Pamela has been a resident for four years now and in all that time her care has been of the highest order. Staff are as attentive and as caring as time and circumstances allow. They are always aware of her dignity and maintain it to the highest levels. There is adequate opportunity for her mentalhealth to be maintained with stimulating activities Pamela is usually upbeat and responds well to the staff members. It is to my continued thankfulnes that Pamela is lucky to be a resident of Castle Hill House Bodmin.

We chose The Towans for our mother to have 2 weeks respite after a hip replacement. The staff were very helpful and patient with her, even though she didn't want to mix with others. We agreed a plan of action to help her recovery, and with their care and help we managed to keep her safe and physically she has recovered well. Definately recommend this home 'from home' for anyone.

Review of The Towans from L H (Daughter of Resident) published on 3 December 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Leaving her birth place, friends and home of over 50 years to relocate to a care home was the hardest decision for Mum and for me. The Towans was recommended by a close friend and in August Mum came for respite care, with a view to staying long term.
From the minute we walked in, we both felt a huge sense of relief. The atmosphere at Towans is warm and welcoming, the staff are caring and respectful, going to great lengths to get to know the residents and what is important to them. We were very impressed with the cleanliness, food, stunning house / garden and quality of the furnishings. Three months in, these impressions are absolutely reinforced. Mum isnt great at mixing but loves her weekly tai chi session and musical entertainment with gentle encouragement but no pressure from the Activities Manager.

She is really settled and happy and has even started to call it " home". We cannot thank the staff and management enough for all their care and kindness over and above the call of duty.

Reply from Lucy Ledger, Director at The Towans

Review of Castle Hill House from Hilary S (Daughter of Resident) published on 19 November 2025 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My mum has been a resident at Castle Hill House in Bodmin for almost a year. She is being looked after as if she is a part of a loving family there. The carers always appear cheerful and welcoming and always focus on each resident's needs. Mum always looks clean and tidy and enjoys the lovely meals. She especially enjoys all the activities, games, and sing-alongs she takes part in, along with many residents of varying needs, under the watchful eyes of the carers, who are all clearly happy in their role and dedicated to them all. Mum is very happy there.

We have used Castle Hill House for respite care for both my Mum and now my Father in law.
We found the staff to be very caring and friendly. Both parents were happy with their stay and the excellent care they received. The rooms in both cases were clean, tidy and well presented with a pleasant view.
The food is of a high standard with good variety. Nothing was too much trouble.

Thank you Castle Hill.

Review of The Towans from K R (Wife of Resident) published on 26 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My husband started attending the Towans care home, for day care last year. It is a beautiful home which is set in its own grounds and is close to the sea.

It is a home in the true sence of the word, having a very friendly and warm atmosphere. The staff are extremely dedicated to the residents, caring and respectful. They provide tailord care, support and encouragement to suit each residents individual needs, which I have found goes over and beyond, exceeding any expectation.

There is a wide range of exceptionally well planned activities each day, providing stimulation, interaction and much laughter. This includes singers, musicians and much more.

Meals are varied, tasty and prepared to a high standard.

The Towans provides outstanding care and support for both residents and their family's.

I have found it so reasuring to know that my husband is in such safe hands and can't thank you enough for all you do. I have no hesitation in "highly recommending" the Towans to to others.

Reply from Lucy Ledger-Wielkopolska, Business Support at The Towans

Thank you so much for such a thoughtful and detailed review. We are thrilled that both your husband and yourself are happy with The Towans, the care received and the extended support we offer with our 'extended family' mentality. We all look forward to seeing you both when you are here.
