Icknield Court

Very pleased with the overall care and communication with everyone at the home. Mum is very settled but still confused which is normal. I believe that her eating habits have improved.

My father enjoys the activities very much along with the food! He receives good care tailored to his specific needs. The regular family meetings are very useful and suggestions are actioned upon. The staff are very friendly, and professional. They show how well they know my father and how much they care. Thank you.

My husband spent 4 weeks here everyone was good. The only problem I had to ask after nearly 3 weeks was for him to have a shower and to empty his bin with stoma bags - very smelly.

I am very pleased that I chose Icknield Court for my parents' care. The care staff are kind and understanding of their care needs and are friendly and approachable. The rooms are clean and bright. There is a good choice of activities and visitors are made to feel very welcome. The atmosphere is homely and relaxed. I am happy to recommend Icknield Court.

I cannot fault the care and love shown to my mum's recent death. She loved the carers, I had no worries about her care, I was always kept up to date with any issues. She was so happy, always looked cared for, even to her nails and jewellery and regular baths which she loved. Thank you so much.

My sister has been here and is very happy, feels safe and well cared for. The staff are so kind.

An excellent day. The entertainers were outstanding. The food provided was first-class. The care provided by the staff to the residents was excellent.

My mum has been a guest of Icknield Court Care Home since February 2023. At first, she was her grumpy self but in the last five months, never seen her happier, she is really settled which is great as she is a good mum. So thank you Icknield Court.

From the moment I first visited to explore Icknield Court Care Home as a suitable care home for my 94-year-old mother, throughout the time she was resident to the sad time when she passed away just four months later, the welcome and care all of us received was exemplary. As an ex-headmistress, my mother was a fiercely independent and intelligent lady who had exacting standards that her family and those around her could find tricky to meet! So once her frailty meant she was no longer able to safely live alone, we worried that she would find it difficult to settle into life in a care home. However, the caring, friendly, social, energetic atmosphere throughout the whole of Icknield Court meant that she immediately felt at home and threw herself into life there, particularly enjoying the wide-ranging activities. It was always about her as an individual and nothing was ever too much trouble for any of the staff who were always flexible to any request. And critically, always kind, caring and respectful.

My mother has been here now for two weeks and I have found the care home excellent. It is clean and well-maintained, food looks good and facilities are excellent. I find the staff very pleasant, helpful, polite and respectful. My sister and I feel that we could not have found a better home for our mother.

He said the food was great, he enjoyed every meal, and the rooms were bright and clean, but I would suggest taking your own TV in if your loved one is in respite. He loved the activities, said one lady and the team were fantastic and made him feel very welcome and part of everything, so a huge thank you to her for doing such a great job. You even had him singing, which he has not done since my mum passed away. The manager was also very helpful, as I had never put Dad into respite before; he was very helpful with all my questions. I would recommend this home to anyone in the future.

A lovely afternoon spent celebrating the Queens Platinum Jubilee. All staff are very welcoming and attentive to the residents. Everyone seems happy and well cared for.

Thank you to everyone there. It is truly appreciated.

I would like to thank the staff and team involved in caring for my husband so well while he was at Icknield Court. A really dedicated team of good people.

This care home provides excellent daily care to my mother-in-law. My husband and I are very very pleased with all aspects of the service provided.

Activities are very good. The staff are extremely good.

The staff and carers are lovely, caring and always talk to us when visiting mum.

I have been living here for almost 2 months. You will note from the options that I am entirely satisfied with this care home. You will be aware of the friendly reception you receive from the staff. This continues through your stay and to all parts of the home and gardens.

We attended the exhibition at Icknield Court. It was a lovely evening, the staff are so welcoming and friendly. The food and drink were lovely. My grandad seems very happy and I always look forward to visiting.

Thank you Icknield Court! The Art Exhibition was a lovely evening.
