Mum was a resident at Elstree Court for over three years. During that time she was content, well fed and very well cared for. She had a lovely, spacious room with an en suite wet room. She personalised her room and it was always kept clean and tidy. The home is well run and queries and administrative
arrangements are handled efficiently. All the staff treated Mum kindly and respectfully and took the time to chat and get to know her. Lots of varied activities and some outings are organised for the residents, and their friends and families are made to feel very welcome at events throughout the year. Elstree is large enough to offer modern facilities with a spacious garden and plenty of parking, but cosy enough to be friendly and for all the residents to be treated as individuals. Having the convenience and reassurance of a nursing team is extremely beneficial.

My uncle moved to Elstree Care Home in October 2025. He did not want to leave his home, but ill health meant he needed full time care. From the moment he arrived, he was made to feel welcome by all at Elstree (staff). He was shown dignity and kindness and soon regarded it as his home. Unfortunately
he passed away in December. Thanks to all at Elstree for everything.

My mum was in Coppice Court Care Home for 1 1/2 years. The care was amazing. They looked after her like she was there own family member. When she passed myself and my family were with her and the love and hugs we got from staff members was 1st class. I would highly recommend Coppice.

Fantastic Place! Lovely carers looking after my mum. She loves the company & the day trips out. She's also started joining in with the Bingo and Karaoke, and certainly enjoys the wine and cheese. Looking forward to having Xmas dinner here with her

My friend was in this wonderful home for a short break. Nothing was too much trouble. From the wonderful carers and nurses to the cleaners and cooks, everyone went out of their way to make her comfortable. The manager was so helpful and welcoming and helped to relieve my anxieties of my dear friend
being looked after by someone other than me. It is a truly exceptional home.

My mother was very shaken by her fall at previous rest home - though absolutely no one was at fault for the fall occurring. Once settled at Elstree court, she was very happy and although her severe hearing loss could prove a problem she enjoyed building up a 'rapport' with the staff. I think I can say
on her behalf that Elstree Court was a very happy place for her to spend the last years of her "early existence".

Elstree Court is a friendly and welcoming care home. It provides an excellent level of care for those in need, and has a good range of activities, including a monthly visit for a service by a local church. The spiritual needs of residents are cared for as well as the physical.
There is an excellent
leadership team run by the experienced and understanding manager.

Firstly, most of the Care Assistants and Nurses are excellent and provided good care to our friend but there are not enough of them. However, Management is shocking. Our friend had items stolen and police were also informed on a safeguarding issue when our friend was hurt. This was investigated and
dealt with internally and is recorded.
Phone calls are mostly unanswered at weekend and evenings. Current investigation ongoing involving money stolen from Reception, in spite of upper management trying to whitewash over it.
All of this has caused much stress and heartache. Sadly our friend has now passed.
If you are considering this place for a relative or friend, then I would advise to stay clear. There are other homes out there to consider.
Reply from Julie Caygill, Hospital Liaison Team Administrator at Coppice Court Care HomeThank you for your review, we value all feedback as this helps us to improve our service where required. We are sorry your experience of our home was not to your expectations. Our own enquiries and those by external agencies have been undertaken in relation to the claim of harm and the area director is meeting with the friend next week to discuss the alleged theft though it is difficult to investigate when valuables are left at reception unattended out of hours. We are sorry calls went unanswered at the weekend; we will look into this matter as we were unaware there is an issue.

I started my stay as a respite but became a full resident in January 2005. I have been very happy with my experience at The Polegate. Staff are very friendly and nothing is too much trouble.

Dad was made to feel very welcome on his arrival after a 3 week stay in hospital. His mobility was diminished and he was treated with care and kindness at all times.The activities were interesting and varied. The food was tailored to his needs and he was helped to eat when needed. He was treated with
dignity and respect at all times especially in his final days. We would recommend Elstree Court to persons in this areas.

When I arrived, I felt very welcome. I was given privacy and plenty to do when I wanted to be with other people. I made choices. My whole family were invited to events and activities. The home staff were very friendly and made me feel at home. The food is excellent.
