Review from Sue B (Daughter of Resident) published on 17 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My dad was adamant that he didn't want to go into any care home, but had to because of building work being done in his house. Staff and other residents welcomed him and he instantly felt at home. The chairs the residents sit on are fabric, with cushions, the bedrooms have bedspreads and carpets, the dining room is laid out like a restaurant with tablecloths and flowers on the table. After 3 weeks he had to return home, but after just two weeks he asked to go back and stayed for a further 18 months. During that time the staff treated him with kindness and compassion and they became like his family and he was always having a joke and a laugh with them. He was much more content than when he was living on his own with carers coming in. He was always thanking the staff and he enjoyed the weekly activities. I will be eternally grateful to all the staff and fellow residents for making my dad's last months such a happy time.

Review from Gill S (Daughter of Resident) published on 3 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The care my mum receives here is exceptional. The staff take a genuine personal interest in every resident, and it's clear that what they do is far more than just a job. There's a real family warmth to the home and the atmosphere is calm, understanding and consistently kind, with a lovely sense of humour in the mix.
They look after my mum with patience and compassion, always treating her as an individual and supporting her in a way that feels both respectful and thoughtful. The team is remarkably stable, with little to no turnover, which creates continuity and trust.
Music sessions, activities and gentle social opportunities are organised regularly, but residents seem to be free to be themselves and do what they enjoy, with encouragement offered only when it feels right for them. Visiting is never rigid or restricted, family can come at any time, which makes the home feel open and welcoming.

I couldn't ask for a better place for mum.

Overall Experience

My husband visited The Grange for 2 weeks respite care while I had to go away. He enjoyed his stay even though he was reluctant to go. He praised the staff for their kindness and care and said he was very well looked after. He is happy to go back if I have to go away again.

My dad has lived at the Grange for 3 years and was made to feel welcome from his first day. All the staff are very caring and compassionate and treat all of the residents with dignity and respect. There are regular activities for residents and their families. The home is lovely and clean and looks nice from the outside. Whenever I visit I am always greeted by the staff in a friendly manner and know I can approach any of them if I have any concerns

Review from F S (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 17 September 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The care that my mother in law has received at The Grange is excellent. Every member of the team is friendly and welcoming to us and go the extra mile to make sure that my mum in law is happy and settled.
The Grange has a lovely atmosphere and the residents all seem happy and extremely well cared for.
A particular strength is the attention the team pay to each individuals needs. My mother in law has dietary requirements which the team go out of their way to not just accommodate but exceed.
The personal care is timely and thorough and I feel very confident that my mum in law is in safe, knowledgable hands.

It is always possible to speak to a member of staff in person or on the phone.

First impressions as soon as your walk up the path to the care home that the garden is well maintained. Being met at the door, all the staff have been very friendly and helpful. You always see the staff being attentive to the residents. Mum loves the food and wide selection on offer to eat.

Overall Experience

My mother has been in this care home since May 2025 and I have been very impressed with the cleanliness, the organisation and the layout/facilities. Her room is compact with tv and day chairs, and also its own toilet and sink ensuite. I have observed the caring way the staff help people and my mother has told me herself how well they look after her. The food looks good and there is a choice of dishes at every meal. I observed live music on regular occasions and there are facilities to sit and read, do puzzles or just relax. I am very glad my mother is there!

Review from Toni B (Daughter of Resident) published on 20 May 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My mum has now been a resident at The Grange for 6 years. In that time she has received amazing care, the staff are always polite and friendly and keep me well informed on how mum is doing.
Whenever she has needed medical attention they are quick to respond and always phone me immediately to let me know.
The home is well run and every member of staff provides mum with the level of care I would expect and they all genuinely seem to care about my mum.

I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone who finds themselves in the position I was in 6 years ago.

Review from Jayne W (Niece of Resident) published on 16 May 2025 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My aunt sadly passed away in March 2025. She had been a resident at The Grange since early December 2023 following a fall at home when she broke her hip. My husband and I and family visited her regularly. I am pleased to say she was very happy and well looked after by all staff at The Grange. In my estimation The Grange is extremely well managed where key issues are regularly addressed to make the residents' stay a happy and comfortable experience. At all times when we visited her we were met with a warm welcome by all staff. Thank you so much! In fact we believe the excellent care she received extended her life expectancy.

Overall Experience

My mother died at The Grange on 20 April. Throughout her stay there we were pleased with the care she was given. In the days before her death, a senior carer did her paperwork in Mum's room to make sure she was not alone when the inevitable happened. So kind and thoughtful. We were always kept informed of any problems. The manager and senior carers were all excellent.
