Review of Oaklands Care Home from Samantha B (Daughter of Resident) published on 10 August 2026 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I have only wonderful things to say about Oaklands Care Home and the amazing staff who are currently looking after my mum who can be very challenging. How they handle her is amazing and if it's out of 10 I would give 11 without hesitation. I love visiting they are all very welcoming, and Mum often says she loves it here.

My mother, Ena, was cared for by the best staff ever. I noticed nothing they would not do to keep my mother happy and well looked after. As well as all the other residents in their care. I rate all staff and management 10 out 10 5 star plus. Many thanks Howard

Overall Experience

Our mum is staying in Drake House Ward. The staff are caring and supportive. They complete regular checks and provide personal care regularly. They handle difficult patients and situations with a calm attitude. The food looks healthy and homemade. The management are polite and helpful, and nothing is too much trouble. We appreciate all the hard work they do for our mum. We now know our mum is in safe hands with the staff at the care home.

Review of Larchwood Care Home from Lynda L (Daughter of Resident) published on 2 July 2026 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I have been 100% happy with the care my father has received from day 1. The welcome we got and information given made us feel confident he would be well looked after. The staff have been professional, empathetic, and cheerful. Dad loves them all. The standard of care is outstanding especially the catering. I unreservedly recommend Larchwood.

Overall Experience
The home is great, and the staff care is excellent. All staff, carers, nurses, cleaners and kitchen staff are brilliant, friendly, good all-rounders.

I think my wife would say the say the same, although I did not want to put Wen in a home I could not have asked better people to look after her.

Review of Larchwood Care Home from Marian R (Daughter of Resident) published on 8 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Mum became a resident of Larchwood in November 2024. She had dementia and failing mobility.
My brother and I have the greatest respect and gratitude for the care and support given to our mum whilst she lived there. All staff from management, admin, carers, catering and housekeeping were unfailing in their kindness and empathy. Keeping mum safe, comfortable and providing endless cups of tea with a cheery smile and a bit of fun was everything we could have wished for. One of us visited nearly every day and we were always greeted with a friendly smile and a chat by whoever was on duty. If we needed help with anything or had any questions or concerns we knew exactly who to speak with and help was always on hand.

The compassion shown when mum passed away was above and beyond our expectations. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Larchwood to any prospective families.
