With beautiful gardens and communal areas, spacious bedroom suites, a library and bistro café, Basingfield Court has some wonderful spaces to enjoy. But it’s the team which makes this home special.
Devoted to enriching the lives of their residents, activities are a huge part of life in the home, where the team provide residential, dementia and pre-bookable respite care.
The home has magnificent large gardens. With new furniture, these have just been revamped with the help of community volunteers, who have also created a pond. The residents are nurturing their own herbs and veg from seed, as part of the home’s gardening project, which will then be used in the kitchen.
The residents enjoy seated yoga, visualisation and meditation classes every week, as well as Zumba and dance. There are also twice weekly visits from a mobile hairdresser, who has been pampering residents in the salon for 30 years!
There are monthly cultural days, where the residents learn facts about different countries and the chef creates authentic cuisine, with everything from Spanish and Greek to Italian, where residents helped make pizzas. The chef makes home-cooked meals every day and is a talented baker, with freshly-baked cakes for afternoon tea. The residents often get involved in baking activities. And new to the menu are the cheese and pâté suppers.
The home has a beautiful bistro to relax in with loved ones, who are welcome to visit at any time. It also has its own private family and friends Facebook page, filled with photos and videos of what the residents have been enjoying.
The home is very much part of the local community, with school children visiting regularly for crafts and bingo.
Animal visits are also popular at Basingfield Court, from guinea pigs and rabbits to Shetland ponies.

My husband went into Basingfield Court for a week's respite, when putting the wheels in motion I received every courtesy & help and being the first time of him being away I was reassured that he would be safe & well looked after which was confirmed after his week's stay. He has mobility issues and every available help was readily available they offered all sorts of activities and stimulation, which is a must for mental wellbeing. We were both very happy and would not hesitate to use Basingfield Court again
Thank you for sharing such lovely feedback. We're pleased to hear the respite stay felt reassuring from the outset and that the support for mobility and wellbeing made a real difference. It's wonderful to know the activities and stimulation helped him feel safe, engaged and well cared for.

That's wonderful to hear. Thank you for sharing your feedback, this means a lot to us.
I am very appreciative of the staff care and pleasant attitude to some of the great difficulties experienced through lack of water and heating. Hopefully they are near the end of the great improvements and just maybe my towel improvement meets with my satisfaction!

My mum entered Basingfield Court Care Home with symptoms of Dementia & falls. From her arrival she has been welcomed and treated with the utmost respect and kindness from all the staff across the home. To see her smiling from ear to ear every time we visit is heartwarming as we initially felt guilt at placing her there but I can honestly say she is happier there than she was living with us. I wouldnt hesitate to recommend Basingfield to any potential residents. Thankyou all for giving us peace of mind
Thank you for sharing such a heartfelt review. We're delighted to know your mum feels happy and cared for, and that we've given you peace of mind. Your recommendation means so much to us!

My mother was a resident for 6 1/2 years. Especially in the last 2 or 3 years her care has been good. She was treated as an individual and given careful care as she weakened and eventually became bedridden. Activities were varied and imaginative and although she did not participate in many, she enjoyed most of them.
Thank you for sharing your experience. We're honoured to have cared for your mother for 6 years and glad she received the attention and support she needed. It's wonderful she enjoyed the activities, even as an observer. Your feedback means a lot and will be shared with our team
I need 2 carers to assist me with bathroom toilet etc. a long wait for this service. Bad language from carer on night shift, have complained no different at all. Up to 25 minutes wait for bell to be answered at times. Had to wait up to 30 minutes for pain killers during the night shift.

My mother came to Basingfield Court for 6 weeks of respite after a period in hospital. The difference between when she came in to when she left was amazing! She was brighter, more alert and more able and independent both physically and mentally. The home has a nice atmosphere with incredibly caring staff. Mum loved the food and even put on some much needed weight.
Thank you so much for your kind words, we will be sure to share them with the home manager and her team. We're delighted to hear that your mother had such a positive experience at Basingfield Court. It's wonderful to know that she left feeling so much brighter. If you ever need the team again, please don't hesitate to reach out. Thank you for sharing your experience.

Basingfield Court Residential Care Home is a very ideal place for my mum-in-law. The staff are very warm and welcoming. Everyone is very friendly and my mum-in-law was very comfortable with everyone in her three-week stay when she was there. She cannot speak English so she was given a sign chart to be able to express herself which was very good. I will definitely send her again for her respite. A big thank you to all the staff members for taking care of her.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We're delighted to hear that your mother-in-law felt so comfortable and well cared for during her stay with us. It's wonderful to know that the sign chart helped her communicate and that our staff's warm and welcoming approach made her feel at home. We look forward to welcoming her back to Basingfield Court for her next respite stay.

My husband, who has Lewy body dementia, recently spent two weeks respite care at Basingfield Court Residential Care Home. The manager is very caring and professional and the staff were friendly and helpful. My husband had a lovely room on the ground floor which gave him easy access to the communal/dining room. The staff ensured that he attended the entertainment and was not left on his own in his room. I was happy with his care and have booked another respite stay later in the year. I would rate the home good but with a couple of improvements, it could be excellent. 1) Offer male residents a daily shave. 2) Implement a process to monitor residents' fluid intake. 3) Ensure a member of staff is in the dining room during mealtimes, encouraging to eat more.
Thank you for your wonderful review for Basingfield Court, we are delighted to hear that you were so pleased that you have already booked another stay for your husband and look forward to welcoming him back. Please rest assured we are very proactive about monitoring fluids and ensuring staff are...

I am so happy that we chose Basingfield Court Residential Care Home. The staff are incredible, it really is like being at home, friendly, happy and cosy. I couldn't be happier.
Thank you for your review for Basingfield Court, we are delighted to hear how well your father has settled in. The team work so hard to create a homely feel and of course, loved ones are always welcome.
Very welcoming tea, and a beautifully laid out home. The manager was wonderful and my aunt never thought she would be happy in a care home. Cannot recommend enough, clean and hospitable with a good menu and varied activities provided. We are a very happy and grateful family.

Dad has been a resident of Basingfield Court since April 2023. It was quite a wrench leaving his own flat to move to a care home after independent living. Since arriving, he has been shown nothing by kindness from all the staff at Basingfield Court. I cannot praise them enough. Nothing is too much trouble, and I feel Dad is treated with the utmost respect. He chooses to spend most of the time in his room as he's not the most sociable of people, but the staff make a point of going to sit with him regularly so he can chat with them about anything he wants. They give him time and the opportunity to engage. They actively encourage his hobbies and try and find occupations for him to fill his time. I find all the staff and management to be very warm and friendly, always a welcoming smile to greet me when I visit and a quick chat, which is just lovely. Dad has told me he is extremely happy there, and that's the best result I could possibly ask for.
Thank you for your wonderful review of Basingfield Court, the team will be delighted to read your comments. The staff certainly are devoted to enriching the lives of their residents with truly person-centred care.

I joined the team at Basingfield Court as a deputy manager last year, before becoming manager earlier this year. As a team we deliver great care for our residents, working closely with professionals and supporting residents’ families and loved ones.
My career in care started over 10 years ago, working as a carer alongside studying. I have recently completed my level 5 Management in Health and Social Care and will continue to study and learn in my role.
Caring for people is very important to me. I enjoy doing things that will either help someone or change someone’s life, even in a small way. Here at Basingfield Court, our wonderful team supports in enriching residents' lives every day. It makes me feel that I am a part of something very special.
