Everyone is treated with genuine respect, kindness and dignity. There is a welcoming atmosphere, and it really feels as though the residents are treated like this is their home.
Communication with our family is excellent. Nothing is too much trouble, and we are always kept informed, which gives us great reassurance.
Mum herself is thriving, and every member of our family has noticed such a positive change in her since she moved in. She seems happier, more settled and more like herself again.
The environment is bright, welcoming and has lovely views of the outdoors, creating a peaceful place to live.
The staff are simply amazing. They take the time to get to know each resident as an individual and handle even the most difficult situations with sensitivity, patience and professionalism.
To know mum is in good hands is priceless.
Thank you for the review. Its an honour to look after your relative.

Mum came to Millard for six weeks respite in February 2026. She is now a permanent resident. As a family, we cannot thank all members of staff enough. Every single one of them treats not only mum, but us all with the greatest respect. Mum has complex needs, and the care and support she receives is excellent, and she is treated with dignity at all times. She loves attending the day centre and going to the on-site hairdressers. We are kept informed promptly with anything that arises. So across the board with all staff 'Thank You'
Thank you very much for your positive review. We have shared your kind message with the wider care team. It is an honour and a privilege to care for your mother.
Have found the home very welcoming and very caring. I feel happy knowing that my husband is well looked after. I have found the staff very helpful, friendly and caring.

Millard house has been excellent from the very begining communicating with me when ever there was a reason for them to contact a doctor.
My mum took a little while to recuperate from being in hospital but then she started to interact with people and she is now really happy there. There are activities organised daily for residents to join in if the wish to.
The staff at Millard house are always considerate, treat every one with dignity and as individuals, knowing all residents individual needs and preferences.
All staff are friendly and helpful at all times. The carers are always willing to answer any questions that I might have. Nothing seems to be too much trouble for them.
Millard house feels like home from home always welcome.
I would definitely recommend Millard house.

The level of attention and quality of care provided by the team is exceptional. The communication is clear and someone is always on hand to give an update on my wife's condition.

My stepmother moved in 2 weeks ago from another care home and has cheered up! The staff are consistently so kind and caring and look after her very well. They really do have her best interests at the centre of what they do. Thanks to all at Millard home!

She has settled into the home and they understand the problems associated with dementia. The only issue we have experienced is some small items of clothes have been mislaid perhaps due to identity tags coming off. I would highly recommend Millard House to others who need a caring and safe environment. Thank you very much.
Grandma has now reached 3 months at Millard House. The minute I met with Cora to look around I knew this was the place for her. Having been very independent up until a bout of falls we were sad the time had come that we could no longer safely care for her at home. But Millard house has continued to...
The attention to detail of the staff is incredible and on the odd occasion there has been a concern it has been dealt with promptly and professionally.
Selina, Amanda, Cora, Annie (I am really rubbish with names and am sorry to miss so many of you out) but you have all been wonderful and accommodating with your care and support.
If you are looking for a home from home atmosphere with kind, caring and dedicated staff who listen to and act upon any concerns then Millard house is the place.
Thank you all again x
It was a difficult decision to put my friend into a care home but the staff of Millard House are so caring towards her that I am glad we chose Millard House. I am kept updated on all medical matters. The home is very clean and tidy.

My mum stayed at Millard for a period of respite care. As she had not lived in a care home before, she was apprehensive about what it would be like. However, from the moment we arrived staff were welcoming and friendly. By the time I popped in to visit her after a week she could not speak highly...
Staff were always welcoming and provided updates when I visited. If I had a question it was dealt with and nothing ever seemed too much trouble. The home itself is bright with a range of lounge areas. Everywhere always looked clean and tidy.

Very pleased with service provided and communication is excellent. Its such a relief to know mum is looked after so well. I have experienced hospital care and home Carers on more than a few occasions but the service and staff at Millard House have exceeded everything experienced prior to mum becoming a resident. I can only thank you from the bottom of our hearst for the care provided and giving us our lives back.
The home is clean and welcoming. I found the staff to be kind and helpful. They work hard to care for mother who has dementia. Every effort is made to keep the residents stimulated with projects and entertainment. I and my wife are very pleased with home.

My mother’s physical and emotional State has improved greatly even though her dementia continues to deteriorate. She loves the music afternoons and she is keen to join in the singing. I am very pleased with the way the home is caring for her and would recommend this home to my friends who may need a place for any of their relatives.
