I am so happy that I can have peace of mind, especially through this pandemic with the way the carers take such good care of my mum. I could not have wished for a better care home to look after my mum, they really go the extra mile and more to keep our loved ones safe, Dovecote Manor is a home from home with their kindness and patience and the staff are so friendly, they work very hard to care for there residents and I would recommend Dovecote Manor to anyone who is looking for a care home for a loved one as they really put your mind at ease and I saw this every day before the pandemic as I was there most days visiting my mum.
Thank you for your kind words for all the staff at Dovecote Manor, they will be very pleased to see this review. I am glad to hear that Mum is happy there.

I can’t put into words how grateful we are as a family for Dovecote Manor. They have amazing and approachable staff and we really feel they care to our nans needs as much as possible. Over the pandemic we know the times have been incredibly testing and tough but feel they have done everything they can to keep the staff and residents safe with what’s in their control. We owe a lot to the staff as it’s such a weight lifted knowing our nan is safe and being cared for. We would recommend this home it has a great homey welcoming feel.
Dovecote is like an extension of our family,...
I would highly recommend Dovecote Manor to anyone, it really is like home from home.
Thank you for your kind words, it's a real pleasure having mum here at Dovecote Manor. We appreciate how hard it must have been to place mum here in such difficult times during the pandemic so it's really reassuring to know and see how well mum has settled here. Your feedback will be shared with the team who work so hard to make this possible.

My mum has been at Dovecote Manor since March 2018. Throughout she has been wonderfully well cared for by the staff, and clearly continues to be settled and feel safe. This includes throughout the pandemic when I and other family have not been able to visit very regularly as we have previously done. Mum was very poorly earlier this year and staff cared for her superbly well, nursing her back to her previous level of health. Throughout the pandemic, the staff have been incredible working through the huge challenges whilst looking to their own families too. The team strive to do the best for residents, and their motivation amazingly remains positive. I have always been clear that Covid guidelines and other standards have been applied well, with a human touch. It's clear that staff are heartened by the positive steps being carefully taken as lockdown eases. Last month I was able to hold Mum's hands during a visit in fourteen months. Lots of very happy tears, and not just from Mum and I!
Lovely care home.

My father came to live at the carehome in Summer 2020. He was well supported for his move as it was during lockdowns. He soon felt at home and it has been fantastic not to worry about his care. He feels at home and comfortable with some of his own things in his room. The care is exemplary and every member of staff are so polite and caring to the residents and their families. A real home from home. Despite restrictions, during covid this place has been there evolving in a seamless way keeping us in touch.
Always welcoming, both my parents looked after well with respect. The staff take time to talk to residents and family members. I always feel happy to leave my parents as I know they are cared for.

My mother has been a resident for nearly five years and she has been cared for extremely well. I have no concerns about her welfare when I am not there.

P.S. I do think the office in the Bluebird cupboard is a mistake. The residents used to like the stimulation of office comings and goings and the reception area feels empty and cold now - boring even.
