Lovely place, very homely. Staff caring and interested in the residents as individuals. Mum settling in well after the hospital thought she shouldn't go back home. Lovely quiet location and nice garden for the summer.

Dad is receiving real person centred care based around his wishes and not the care homes . He doesn't eat a cooked meal at lunch so he has his around the time he has always had dinner .
The home is always clean and well staffed , there is always a member of staff in the day lounge .
Having worked in a care I had high standards but from the first visit prior to dad being admitted I was really impressed and knew dad would be well cared for , I really can't
fault them at all .
Thank you very much for your kind words. It is an honour and a privilege to look after your Dad - he is such a character!

We was recommended to the home by one of my customers his wife spent 3 years at Boars Tye we was initially shown around by Jenny who talked us through the whole process of caring for our Mum
we didn't hesitate in choosing Boars Tye for Mums care.
The care home felt like a home from home. We had the use of the staff kitchen so we could help ourselves to drinks always welcome to have meal with mum.
My family can't thank them enough.
Thank you so much for your kind words. It was a pleasure looking after your mum.

Mum spent 6 weeks at Boars Tye on temporary care after a hospital stay. The staff were absolutely wonderful and friendly. They couldn't have done more for her. She was incredibly happy during her stay and we were all very grateful. It was sad that there wasn't a permanent place for her available as we would have loved for her to have been able to remain and continue the fantastic care she had been receiving. We will miss everyone and couldn't recommend them more.

Always kept me informed of mums Drs/medical visits or appointments. So I was up todate and any concerns dealt with straight away health or otherwise.
Food was good the chef made everything from scratch and if you didn't like any of the days choices a substitute was sought.
I can remember on one of my visits arriving to find my mum being given weetabix with cream and sugar mid afternoon at her request, I couldn't belive it. Staff always strive to accommodate residents were possible.
Plenty of interaction and activities going on also staff would sit and chat to residents on a one to one basis daily which I know my mum really appreciated.
A clean and caring home were my mum was treated with kindness and dignity in her last days, couldn't ask for more.
Would definately recommend
Thank you for your kind words. We will miss Mum and yourself dearly.

My mum has very special needs after she suffered from a Brain aneurysm when she was only 47. I needed to find a very special place where she could not only be kept safe but also a place that could handle her demands. This includes having lots of attention, keeping very busy, managing her hygiene and medication. Mum has no short term memory and a very short attention span. She forgots what she has done or eaten and is on the go all of the time. I needed to find somewhere that mum could go gor a weejs respite. Over the last four years we have tried around ten carehomes, none were able to cope with mums behaviour. We tried one more after some recommendations. We hit the jackpot. Thet care for mum as well as if she was a loved one and go above and beyond. She is well looked after, clean and happy. I can relax when mum is there. So happy to find this gem.
Thank you so much for your kind words! Your mum is a delight, and such a character!
This is the second close family member who has been a resident at this care home. Both times the staff showed excellent care and compassion to the resident and to myself and other family members. Nothing was too much trouble and they were very supportive and flexible when our family members...
The staff show patience and courage in what is a a very difficult job.

My sister has been at Boars Tye for just one week's respite care. I visited on day six and was so impressed with all that I saw. My sister was very happy to be there and had no complaints at all. It was so apparent that ALL the staff are fully dedicated to the care and needs of the residents. All residents looked good, relaxed and well looked after. I have been to many retirement homes and in my view none of them match the care and support that Boars Tye provides to those in their care. The staffing levels are good and time is taken to really interact with the residents and visitors. It is a credit to the staff and management to achieve this, and several members of staff told me how they just love working at Boars Tye. It's a very happy place. The premises are not ultra smart, but it is the care that matters and that is achieved in spades. I hope to be visiting my sister again in a few weeks if Boars Tye can have her for another spell of respite care. Thank you so much.
Thank you very much for your kind review. We loved looking after your sister!We are always decorating the home with the input with the residents opinion as it is there Home too.

Mum has only been at Boars Tye for a few weeks but our initial impressions fill us with confidence, they have already done so much to help Mum and everyone has been so welcoming. When we had our original meeting, we were very impressed and overwhelmed with the kindness, understanding, knowledge and their approachability. All of the staff are a credit to Boars Tye, they really care about the residents and know them so well, they are always happy to update us regarding Mum, we feel so confident and reassured by their care. Everyone has so much dedication to their roles, they always have a smile and no matter how busy they are, they always have time for a friendly chat with the residents and have time for us too. It is also lovely to see nice home cooked food, a traditional variety of meals too.
Thank you so much for your kind words.Mum is such a character and we love caring for her!

Although my husband was only in the home for six days before passing away I shall be forever grateful that he made it here from hospital. The management and staff were so helpful and friendly. They had organised a Valentines Dinner while he was there with each resident receiving a card and rose which was a lovely gesture. The home is an old farmhouse and is like a big family home with lovely gardens.

When visiting, the first impression every time was that you were entering her home -albeit, the extended family home in this case. A warm atmosphere and friendly greetings from those staff members we talked to. We were truly fortunate in finding Boars Tye and thank all at the home.
Thank you for your lovely words. We have thoroughly enjoyed looking after your wife.
Even on our first visit before we had made a decision, we were welcomed warmly and it felt like home! All the staff are amazing and friendly. It feels like one big family being at Boars Tye.
