Care Homes Owned by Berkley Care Group in Buckinghamshire

Staff are so hard working and friendly. They would do anything for you! The whole building is very clean. You can see that everyone is well looked after. The food is lovely and you can tell it is fresh!

A pleasant, most comfortable stay. Hospitality manager - very kind and helpful - the best!

Toni has had to visit the hospital recently a few times, the staff have been excellent and helpful. Obviously the food is always first class, with lots of choices and always presented well. The manager runs a tight ship and is a very caring person.

Visited old neighbour for lunch on 2nd May. Cannot speak too highly of the ambience of the home. The staff and food were excellent and very helpful. For anyone looking for a residential home, Portobello Place most certainly is worth a visit.

Visited resident as guest for lunch in private dining room. Staff very polite and attentive. Food was excellent (3-course meal) with drinks. Staff very well trained. Lovely to visit residents in such lovely atmosphere and surroundings. Could not fault experience.

Mum resided at Portobello Place for 4 and a half years. During this time she felt part of the "family" with wonderful care and loving attention from the staff. She was treated with kindness and respect, which was important for someone who still had a good degree of independence. Mum loved the events, particularly the singers, speakers, dancers and musicians, which really lifted her spirits and she fully took part!

I had visited 5 care homes for my client. I was very impressed with the decor of Portobello Place. The management and admin staff are extremely professional and very welcoming each time I visit my client. The carers and staff are lovely and very caring. My client has settled in so well, he made the decision to remain permanent. The change in him is incredible.

I would describe Portobello Place as an excellent care home. It has comfy spacious bedrooms, lovely dining room and beautiful open spaces for entertainment and socialising. The staff are caring and attentive. They care for each individual, meeting their needs and encouraging and facilitating them to be the best they can be. Our own experience is that my aunt was in poor health when she arrived 1 year ago, needing 2 carers and maximum help. She is now walking and taking part in many of the activities. She is now sleeping, eating and healthier than she has been during the past 2 years.

My father has been at Portobello Place for nearly 3 years now; it has been just the right place for him. We have really appreciated the care and love that he has been shown over this time through various ups and downs. I feel that we are kept well informed as family on all aspects of his overall care. Many of the staff have known Dad for some time now and it has been really heartening to see the genuine affection they have for him.

Special mention to the events team who have been great in getting Dad involved in a wide variety of day-to-day activities and trips out. The food at Portobello is really excellent and was probably the clincher for Dad when we all came for our initial visit; the catering team really do a fantastic job.

Management run a tight ship and this shows with motivated, friendly and professional staff; we are confident in and grateful for the care that Dad receives at Portobello.

Cannot speak highly enough of everyone. Nothing is too much trouble.

My friend, aged 96, has been a resident in Portobello Place for 2 and a half years. Ever since the current management team were put in place, everything about Portobello is 100% of what a concerned relative or friend would want. Particularly impressive are the frequency and variety of activities provided for residents and the quality and choice of the food provided. I have never had a meal in the bistro that wasn't delicious and served by the friendliest of staff.

Mum is happy and well cared for. Our family are very happy with everything the home provides.

A wonderful team - from reception staff to personal carers, as a family we feel fully supported.

Not only do they care for the resident but they care for the entire family.

It's a wonderful place and the staff are always cheery

I came to Portobello for respite care, following a hip operation, for 2 weeks. My very comfortable room was provided with a hospital bed, and nothing was too much trouble for any of the staff, who were kind, friendly, respectful, without being patronising. The food here is of hotel quality and always nutritious. Two things I would change - my bins should be emptied daily, and the intermittent loss of water pressure on 3rd floor.

My mum came here in Jan 2024. Since then, it has improved greatly - a change in management has helped enormously. The entertainment team is amazing. Food is good.

A lovely home. The bedroom was really nice with pleasant views from the windows which my mother enjoyed. She stayed in Portobello Place for respite care while I was on holiday. Her visitors said that she always seemed happy and they enjoyed taking her to the bistro when they visited.

My mother has been a resident for over 3 years and the care , consideration , kindness has been outstanding . All staff genuinely have a deep connection with my mother and know her on a personal level and consistently try to accomodate all her needs. Nothing seems too much trouble and they have a deep affection for her and her welfare . Today the family visited and a member of staff went the extra mile to make our visit extra special for us and our Mother . We cannot thank the carer enough and my Mother was delighted. All the staff are wonderful and know us by name and are so welcoming

Very good care in pleasant surroundings. Looked after Dad in the best way and left him to his own company when required. Activities available but not pushed as Dad wasn't always keen. Great food available in the bistro or his room which he enjoyed. Lovely room overlooking a patio which he could sit in when sunny. Overall an enjoyable experience for someone who had only ever lived in his own home apart from National Service.

I had respite care for 3 weeks during which I developed a chest infection in one lung and a bladder infection. The care at Portobello Place was consistently good. However, the laundry service did have lapses. I lost several items of clothing which didn't get labelled. These weren't recovered. The optional services for haircuts, manicures and chiropody were much appreciated.

I always find the staff warm and caring and do their very best to facilitate any requests. The house and rooms are beautifully decorated and you feel at home and relaxed very quickly. My mother is content and relaxed and especially appreciates the help she receives in the bathroom. Thank you!
