Bluebells Care Home

My mum sadly passed away last week after living at Bluebells for nearly two years and being poorly the last three weeks. The care she received for the whole time and, in particular, the last few weeks was incredible. All of the staff - carers, managers, activities, chef, housekeeping, maintenance - are genuinely caring and compassionate and went out of their way to keep my mum comfortable and safe. They also looked after our family who spent a lot of time there and were always offering us drinks and covering us for time out. It was the best decision when we chose Bluebells for the last years of her life. Thank you for everything.

Thank you

The staff at this home are exceptional!! We have recently lost our mother and as awful and sad as the experience has been the staff went above and beyond to look after her and also the family. I'd find it impossible to identify one staff member in particular as they are all exceptional. We can't thank them enough for all the care and kindness they have showed us. I would recommend this home to anyone and would be happy to spend my last years in their company.

I can't fault the care she has received so far.

My lovely wife went into Bluebells Care Home in October 2025, her Alzheimers was starting to take a big part of her life away. I was struggling caring for her at home. Being a carer 24 hours a day, 7 days a week dealing with everything thrown at you is hard. We stated looking for care homes in our area, we contacted several. We knew Bluebells and contacted them, they have been brilliant in every way. I am her husband again, not her carer. Thank you Bluebells Care Home. Thank you.

The Bluebells team led by Joanne looked after my dear mother brilliantly until her recent passing .All the team from the Nurses to the carers the kitchen and the cleaners are so helpful and lovely.We moved mum from a home in South London to Bluebells and quite honestly the comparison is like day and night.The home is very clean and we all felt very welcome .

good care home my mum is well looked after great staff food is good do anything for her very clean care home plenty off drinks when required and fresh fruit go above and beyond to help the residents to injoy there time there

Staff are friendly, helpful and attentive. I have no issues with my mother's care and trust the team in looking after her.

This is not just 'a care home' - it's my mother's home. She is treated with respect, dignity and a great deal of care and love. The place is always bright and cheerful. They have an open-door policy and I always feel welcomed. All the residents have 'needs' of their own and they look happy and content. I know my mother is well looked after in their care and kept safe.

My sister and I are delighted to have found Bluebells Care Home and couldn't imagine a better place for our dear mother to be now that she is too frail to live independently.

Thank you to you all.

Since Mum moved in two weeks ago, after spending months in hospital, she has improved so much, especially her mental capacity and recall. A big thank you to all the staff for their kindness, care and building her confidence. They have gone above and beyond to find out what makes her happy and how she is feeling. It is such a relief to know she is so well taken care of. If I were to summarise Bluebells Care Home in one word, it would be "kindness". Thank you.

Kind and understanding staff.

My mother has recently moved to Bluebells Care Home. After an unexpected, complicated hospital visit, she has become more medically challenging than anticipated. Not an issue for the wonderful staff. Nothing is too much trouble. I, for one, am very grateful. 10/10.

Visited Mum on 05/06/24 as it was Mum's birthday. Staff went above and beyond to make Mum's birthday special. All the carers are brilliant. I can't fault the care home at all.

Dad was in st Martins for over 3 years. Unfortunately, he passed away very recently. Dad had been to other homes before for respite and never settled. Within days Dad settled here and respite became full-time. Over time they have adapted his care to meet his needs. The last few months for us as a family have been hard. But we have never had to worry about Dad's care. The staff have always gone above and beyond for Dad. Not only have they done this for Dad but also for us. Keeping us updated and showing us so much love and compassion. And continue to do so. The home has a wonderful team of staff that keep the residents safe, extremely well cared for and stimulated depending on their needs. The food is of a great standard, with extras offered throughout the day and night for those that want it. The home is always well-kept and clean. The atmosphere is one of love and kindness to all.

The experience of my husband - I think, must have been really normal. Just the longing to come home, but within a month, he settled and now is full of praise of his care, carers and food. For my part, I am grateful for the fantastic care of everyone at St Martins for my husband. Long may it continue.

St Martins is a very happy and well-run home. My husband is very well looked after and there are always members of staff if you need to ask a question and they will always give you an answer. All in all, St Martins is a care home that I would recommend to everybody.

All staff are so friendly and helpful. They have a good rapport with my mother. I am confident that she is being taken extremely good care of.

My mother moved into St Martins in March from her own home. I have been delighted with the care and attention she has received and have not seen her so happy for a long time. She was lonely at home, but the staff at the home are so creative, that she is active most of the day! The outdoor garden is amazing, as is the seaside lounge and all the activities they do for those with dementia, from skittles to balloon volleyball, from singing to darts (soft darts!). My mother likes to help, and the staff also involve her in day-to-day activities such as watering the plants and clearing the table, which makes her happy. Her speech has improved since going to the home, and she laughs all the time. It is a fantastic place!
