Meteor Rest Home

I can't fault this care home, my mum was very well cared for, all the staff and management, treated us as friends, everything I needed to know about my mum, I was told as soon as I went in, I totally recommend this care home.

From the day Mum moved into Meteor House in 2021 we knew she was in safe hands. It had such a calm and welcoming atmosphere, a home from home. Mum settled quickly due to the care and kindness shown by everyone. As a family we were always kept well informed of mum's situation and we could visit anytime. This made it easy for everyone to visit any day of the week. Mum's great grandchildren loved visiting and especially loved the biscuits and Anita's fabulous home-made cakes. Jigsaws were mum's 'thing' and she enjoyed participating in the afternoon activity sessions when she was able to. Every christmas all residents and their familes enjoyed partying and even Father Christmas came! Mum was provided with outstanding medical care for her whole five year stay. My family would like to thank Anita, Neil and Ash and every single member of staff for the wonderful care they provided for Mum. I would have no hesitation in recommending their care home for your loved ones.

My mum was admitted to Meteor Rest Home straight from hospital, she stayed here for 18 months ,she had vascular dementia and her needs were very high and she needed care with everything. The staff and owners were amazing they kept mum very safe, the home was always clean , home cooked food every day, her bedroom and bed was always clean and mum was always dressed and taken downstairs every day so she could socialise with the other residents. 5 days a week from 1pm-5pm they played games, done puzzles, painted listened to music to keep them entertained , we was able to visit mum whenever we wanted to see her with no restrictions, which as a family we found very helpful , the staff were always very welcoming and friendly. I would recommend this care home to anyone looking for a safe and comfortable home .

second to none

I cannot speak highly enough of this home and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone with a relative needing 24-hour care.

My friend was admitted to Meteor House because her dementia and poor eyesight meant she was unable to care for herself following the death of her partner. As her guardian, I was going to move her to a home closer and more convenient for me. However, she had settled in Meteor House very quickly and it was felt moving her could be detrimental to her well-being. It was a good choice. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The residents are not left lying in bed. She was always clean and her clothes co-ordinated, which is how she always was. I could visit her at any time without giving notice and the property was always clean, unlike other care homes I have visited. She had regular visits from a hairdresser and chiropodist organised by the home (payable by me) and I arranged for a beautician to visit her every couple of weeks. The Managers are always very welcoming and they and the home are to be recommended.

My mum was transferred to Meteor Rest Home from hospital 6 years ago after frequent falls and increased dementia in her assisted living home. During this 6 year period, I have been overwhelmed by the care and attention given to my mum from all the carers at Meteor. A good example is that prior to her move there, she experienced frequent urine infections and I can honestly say that she didn’t experience one again during her stay at Meteor. My mum had many forms of dementia and could be aggressive at times and we can have no complaints on the way the staff dealt with her and looked after her needs. My mum recently passed away at Meteor following a stroke and I feel it necessary to give an honest assessment of a very well-run care home.

I have recommended Meteor to many of my friends who have elderly parents who may one day need what I regard as a very good care home.

Meteor care home is a very efficiently run care home. The staff work very hard to provide an excellent level of care to the residents. It is a family-run home and the staff who work there have built up a trusting relationship with the residents, meeting their every individual need. The food is home-cooked and the home provides a good variety of healthy meals. Every week they have activities which include singing, dancing, cards and bingo. The care home is very clean and secure with a lovely garden which the residents and visitors can both enjoy. Overall, I was very impressed with the care home and felt it was like a home from home for my dad.

I still keep in touch with the owner to see how he and his family are doing.

The staff go out of their way to make you feel welcome and safe in this difficult time. My relative always talks about how happy and comfortable she is too. It's clean and feels like home and one of the better homes in the area.

I am very happy with my mother's care.
