Review from Richard P (Brother of Resident) published on 19 May 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My brother needed to be looked after in a Care home back in November 2024 and Croft Manor was proposed to us as a possible option.
The manager was brilliant in swiftly assessing my brother and offered a room, which they would refurbish before he arrived. A couple of weeks later he arrived into his
freshly decorated spacious room.
My brother has settled in so well into his new home, where he has a great relationship with the staff and loves the food. He is healthier than he has been in a very long time, with excellent care ensuring he has his medication alongside tasty food and exercises. The home staff take him regularly out into the town which has improved his confidence and mobility.
When asked last visit if he was happy he voted 10 out 10!
And I am really happy knowing he is happy.
Reply from Joanne Cox, Manager at Croft Manor Residential Care Home

Than you Richard for taking the time to review Croft Manor Care Home. I know how difficult it was for your brother having to come into a care home, a decision that he did not make himself. However, since he has been at Croft, he has settled well, enjoys his weekly trips out and the regular visits by staff. It has been a pleasure getting to know him and the support we have received from yourself in making the transition as smooth as possible has been great - thank you again.

My husband was a resident at Croft Manor Care Home for the last six months of his life and he received the best care I could have wanted. I was allowed to visit at any time and was always kept up to date regarding any problems and any suggestions I put forward to help him were acted on swiftly. I was
allowed to stay with him 24 hours a day for the last few days of his life. The food was excellent and tailored to residents' individual needs. All of the carers were extremely kind both to my husband and myself and very professional in their work. I would highly recommend this home.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Overall, Croft Manor is a good care home, very understanding and caring staff, good food, clean and the surroundings are lovely. Communication between care home and family on medical and health issues could be improved. One bugbear is even though Mum's clothes are labelled, every time we go in she has
someone else’s clothes on, her clothes and underwear are nowhere to be seen, we spend a lot of money getting lovely clothes for her to find they’ve disappeared or someone else is wearing them, so whoever does the laundry needs to be on top of this, how hard can it be to read a label and put it in the right pile! Management are always happy to chat and help with any problem and to make things as easy as possible whatever the issue is. All the carers that work here are kind, caring and lovely, Mum is very happy here.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My partner and I chose Croft Manor for my uncle. We needed to find an alternative care home for him because the funding was discontinued for his previous nursing home placement. I was happy with the CQC report, the food hygiene rating and previous reviews. We liked the architecture of the building.
His room was freshly decorated, with a new sink, carpet, furniture and TV. It already had an ensuite toilet. The managers are very friendly and the registered manager visited my uncle to complete an assessment which was very positive. I have received positive feedback from both my uncle and the home who are both happy. I have visited my uncle on a number of occasions and am always made welcome.

My lovely Dad moved to Croft Manor Care Home in July, when his dementia became too much for Mum. Sadly due to Covid-19 restrictions visiting was limited to only a few in the garden. Dad sadly passed away after 3 months. We as a family were very happy with Dad's care, the staff are all so friendly and
caring, due to the lack of visiting they answered all of our many questions over the telephone with empathy and kindness. Lovely home with great caring staff. I cannot comment on facilities or activities as due to Covid-19 restrictions we could not enter the building.

I visited Croft Manor weekly almost without exception for 2yrs 3months - 2018 was erratic due to personal reasons. My day for visiting varied greatly but on no occasion did I find the home or her room dirty or unsafe.
The staff were extremely efficient, friendly and supportive of any need.
The food
was varied and of a high quality. In difficult times they do an amazing job. I would recommend them in an instant.

Mum has now been at Croft Manor for almost 3 years and since my last review over a year ago she has declined due to the progression of the dementia.
However, the care she has received is second to none and has been adapted to suit her needs.
The staff are amazing from the management to the maintenance,
the food and the cleanliness cannot be faulted in any way.


I would and have already recommended Croft Manor to other families.

My husband suffers from Parkinson's, after caring for him for 8 years I was finding it hard and was not coping very well.
Croft Manor was suggested as a home where my husband would be happy and would be very well looked after. We visited the home and were greeted by the friendly staff. There was a
warm, homely atmosphere throughout the home and my husband has settled in very well. Thank you to you all at Croft Manor.

This is my up to date review. Nothing has changed my original opinion of Croft Manor. My mother is very contented in the home. Mealtimes are looked forward to, as the food is first class. I would recommend this home to anyone, it is so homely. Visitors are welcomed by the friendly staff. A hairdresser
and also a chiropodist visit regularly, which my mother takes advantage of, free manicures too.

My mother has been a resident of Croft Manor now since June 2017 and despite her advanced years and having a long-term illness, is still able to enjoy an excellent quality of life with the thoughtful care and treatment received. We have found over the months all of the staff extremely competent and
approachable, enabling us to develop a sound relationship with them. The quality of catering, care and support is second to none and we can always rely on a prompt update if there are any issues with Mum's health and well being, that are not run of the mill. I am really pleased that I chose this particular care home for her, and have every confidence in their continuing ability to look after my mother.

My mum and dad have lived here for 3 years. Mum has received excellent care and support to help her cope with dad's recent death. The home has a comfortable, traditional feel to it and it's within easy wheelchair access to shops, cafes and pubs.
Most of the Carers have been there over the 3 years,
providing personal, consistent care. Whenever medical care is needed the staff arrange it quickly and keep me informed of any incidents. Overall, I am very satisfied with the care provided for my parents.

The stressful and upsetting experience of having to move my mother into full-time care was made so much easier by the professional and caring personnel at Croft Manor Residential Care Home, they could not have been more helpful or kind. This kindness also extends to whoever this family visits, when
a warm welcome is always received at any time of the day with the offer of a cup of tea. This welcoming atmosphere instils a confidence that she is in safe hands and will always be cared for.

My husband suffers with dementia. After 2 weeks in hospital I realised I couldn't cope any more. My husband is 87 and I am 85. My daughter chose 3 care homes and then she took me to look at them. She took me to look at Croft Manor first and I told her I didn't want to see the others, my mind was made
up. It is such a lovely homely place and the staff are wonderful - nothing is too much trouble for them.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.165)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.165) out of 10 for Croft Manor Residential Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 out of 5 from 5 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.772 for Croft Manor Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (45 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 57 Ratings = 4.772
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 4.393 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Croft Manor Residential Care Home is based on 5 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 = 3.5
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 28 registered maximum number of service users is 5.6. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 5.6 = 0.893
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
