Culwood House Residential Care Home

The care of residents is exemplary; I'm always so touched by the genuine care and kindness shown to my father whenever I visit. Today was no exception as I watched one of my father's carers take time to just chat with him, tease him and make him feel special. The care home is always immaculate - spotlessly clean, with fresh flowers and seasonal decorations. Bravo to all who work at Culwood House; I know my father is in very good care.

Today, my friend and I were served a tasty two course meal in the conservatory. We could chat, enjoy our meal and reminisce. Later, we sat in the garden enjoying a cuppa a member of staff brought out to us. So good to see my lovely friend cared for in beautiful surroundings.

The home is very welcoming to all the family and friends who visit with a separate garden room for family privacy if required. I would highly recommend this home to anyone and feel lucky we found it.

I was made to feel welcome, as I always have done, and staff assisted me to sit with my friend in comfort and privacy. They also enquired about how my friend's health/appearance seemed to me, which I appreciated.

I am a resident at Culwood House and have been here for the past two and a half years. I have Alzheimer's Dementia. I am writing a review because of all the nice things they do here. There is nothing too much trouble for the staff and though I cannot remember their names I know them well. They are always willing to listen to me, help me and make me laugh. When I first joined Culwood I felt unhappy because I had to leave my lovely home. One of the staff members in particular, sat with me many times over the months and explained patiently why I couldn't live by myself, and how much I enjoyed the activities and people at Culwood, even though I couldn't remember. The evidence on their social media page clearly shows my enjoyment and participation of the gentle activities. I know I am very lucky to be here. They keep me young, I really mean it.

I cannot recommend Culwood House highly enough!

This care home is excellent. All the staff have a genuine caring attitude and go the extra mile to love those in their care. Residents are treated like it's their own home and visitors are made very welcome. The meals are delicious and sourced locally. My mother in law was able to stay at Culwood House Residential Care Home for her final few weeks of life and I cannot fault how lovingly she was cared for during that time. Thank you to the whole team.

We had a lovely visit and stayed for a delicious lunch in the conservatory. All the staff that we met were very welcoming and helpful. As always, the house and the garden were immaculate. Looking forward to visiting our friend again.

I have lived here for three years and have always found the staff caring and cheerful. It is a comfortable, homely house and is kept clean and supplied with fresh flowers. We have many activities and are asked if we would like anything else.

Culwood House looked after my mum for almost 3 years. All the staff treated mum with kindness and dignity. Sadly mum's health deteriorated due to her condition, but Culwood made the last couple of weeks of mum's life so peaceful and quiet. My sister and I were treated with so much compassion as we spent every day with mum. Aside from being a beautiful, well-run home, the activities offered are second to none. There are trips out to local places, so many musicians visit as well as gentle exercise sessions and plenty to stimulate the mind. The meals are exceptional and all needs are catered for. Culwood House gave my sister and I peace of mind that our dear mum was well looked after and she couldn't have been in a better place. We will miss our mum but will also miss our twice-weekly visits and the welcome received more akin to family than just visitors.

As Mum's health failed the staff team excelled. They worked with the district nurse and GP ensuring Mum had the care she needed. We visited as a family frequently, always welcome, staying as long as we wanted, meals were provided, and staff always available to update us on how Mum was doing. In the last weeks seeing the various staff interact with Mum with real affection alongside their professionalism was a comfort.

Cullwood House is a lovely home, I couldn't have wished for a nicer place for my Granny. All the staff were so kind and caring and the facilities were excellent. Residents are treated with compassion and dignity, it's just a great place.

I would highly recommend it.

There are other things that I could mention but being a loving home away from home sums it up.

Culwood House is a gem of a place. It manages to combine a lovely, calm 'home from home' atmosphere with total commitment and professionalism from every member of staff. My father could not be better cared for. Despite his frailty and Alzheimer's, the staff are unfailingly warm, patient, and compassionate. Even the most minor request or feedback is taken seriously and actioned immediately. He could not be better cared for. My family and I are so reassured and grateful to you all. Thank you.

We shall be booking again!

We hope in the future Mum may become a full-time resident.

Knit and Natter was a delight this morning, all the residents present participated in the chats we had expressing their varying ideas on all subjects covered from weather abroad to gardening and the perfume of roses. to telling jokes. We all had an enjoyable morning and lots of laughs. It was a pleasure to be part of it.

Today my mum and I visited my nan along with other family members and it was so lovely. Seeing how happy and well she is, thriving within the surroundings and environment is just amazing. We booked the summer house and all enjoyed a yummy lunch together before joining in on their weekly chair exercise class. The lady teaching the class was absolutely brilliant. Keeping all residents and our family members there well entertained with 100% compassion and patience with the residents. It was so lovely to see. We stayed 5 hours with our nan today. The staff are incredible and you are made to feel welcome at all times. Such a beautiful home with excellent staff and amazing service. Thank you for taking such great care of our gorgeous Nan!

All the staff treat the residents with such kindness, care and respect. It has a lovely family atmosphere. Visiting Great Grandma was the highlight of my children’s week! My grandmother was so happy here, we are very grateful to have found such a lovely home for her. We were made to feel so welcome by everyone at Culwood House.
