My mother was a resident in The Corner House care home in Clacton-on-Sea for approximately 3 1/2 years. She was extremely well cared for by the dedicated team of staff, who attended to her individual needs. I always found everyone approachable and had time to discuss any issue that may arise. There was a wide range of activities organised to suit all residents, my mother enjoying the musical events. During her final weeks, she was made as comfortable as possible, being treated with dignity and respect. It gave us all a great peace of mind to know that Mum was being kept safe and happy.
Thank you so much for taking the time to give this lovely review. It was an honour and a pleasure to care for your mother during these years. We are so pleased that you have happy memories to treasure forever. Your praise will be passed to our wonderful staff.
My uncle was quite poorly and lonely when he entered the care home, within a few weeks the change in him was remarkable. We were always welcomed into the home on visits and special occasions, the Christmas party was amazing, plenty to eat and drink and always an entertainer and very often reindeers...
The staff are so dedicated! They work so hard, I wouldn’t hesitate to go into the home; it’s smashing.
Thank you so much for taking the time to review our Care Home. It was a pleasure to care for your uncle. He was a lovely gentleman, well-liked by everyone, and he will certainly be missed by all his friends here at the Corner House.
I was here on respite for three months and I loved my time here. I was treated with dignity and respect. The food was lovely.

I have been a volunteer to the home for a few years. I have found staff and management very friendly and caring. My husband has spent two weeks in the home as a respite resident and was impressed with the care he had. Recently, I have been administering communion to the residents and some staff and I have found the activity coordinator to be most helpful and polite, also other care staff.
Many thanks for taking the time to review the Corner House Care Home. All feedback is welcome and we continue to use this information to enhance and improve our home. We are all extremely grateful for the vital contribution of all our volunteers and indeed the wider community, who have given us a huge amount of support over the past few months.
Excellent initiative by the manager that residents now have a regular one to one with a support staff member, with feedback being given to the next of kin (thank you). This combined with the recent opportunity of a video call with my mother has helped to reassure me that Mum is content and well...
To the manager and her wonderful team - well done, you are all very much appreciated and valued.
The school where I work has a lot of dealings with the care home. I helped out at last years summer fete and was made so welcome. Staff are amazing and do so much entertainment for the residents to make them happy. I would recommend this care home to anyones relative, as they would be very happy...

My dad came to Corner House back in November and his care has been exceptional. All the staff from senior to kitchen staff are very friendly and very helpful, nothing is too much trouble. I can only thank them for their hard work and effort.

Staff and facilities generally good but I would prefer to be able to cope at home and not need to be here.
