Limegrove

My mother-in-law has been living with us and recently went to Limegrove (in East Horsley) for a three week respite, but has ended up staying. We can't thank the staff, every single one of them, enough for their support at a very difficult time for us. They have all been so amazing, so a massive thank you to every one of you for making the transition that much easier.

Hi, we looked at many care homes for my mum and we have been through this process before with my father, but Limegrove stood out from all the others even my fathers one, it was not just the actual site, layout, cleanliness and organisation of the home, it was the staff, and not just one or two it was everyone from finance to admin to carers, laundry and reception, they were all very friendly and kind considering we took so long in making the decision to putting my mum in a home, we hesitated over months in doing this but they were very kind and patient with us, you can see how happy my mum is with all the activities and people around to interact with, so we know she is safe and well cared for, I do not normally do reviews but I cannot recommend these guys highly enough.

My wife was taken ill and had to go to hospital, she had to stay there for a week. From the outset of her going to hospital, I was kept informed by the home. All of the staff were excellent in her recovery. I would not hesitate to recommend Limegrove Care Home to anybody. The activities are good, even I have joined in the activities. It is very clean and the food is good, I have eaten there. I cannot fault this place. I am very happy for my wife to stay there.

We really landed on our feet when we found Limegrove three and a half years ago. From the outset Mum has been well looked after and encouraged to join in the many activities on offer. Mum is now ninety-nine and on her Birthday, chef had made her a beautiful cake and threw her a little party with balloons and music that she could share with other members of her unit. Following lockdowns, Mum had chosen not to participate so much in activities, so as an encouragement to engage Limegrove arranged for her to receive library story discs and an MP3 disc player so that she could listen to them in her room and this has been very well received.

Our Mother went to stay at Limegrove Last October. The care of the staff has been absolutely amazing. Mum settled well due to the friendliness and professionalism of everyone there. Unfortunately, Mum's health declined, and she sadly passed away a few days ago. This was a very difficult time for us as a family, but the journey was made less painful due to the wonderful staff who cared for Mum in such a gentle way. The staff have all been so supportive of us.

I have visited Limegrove a few times, and am very impressed with the building, the decor the furnishings and the cleanliness of the entire place. The staff are welcoming, friendly, charming and very attentive. They deal with the patients in a caring and dignified manner.

We couldn't have hoped or wished for a better home for are dearly loved family member.

My aunt has been in Limegrove since January 2018. The staff are always very friendly, caring and welcoming to myself and my aunt. Limegrove is very clean and tidy. The home is always organising activities for the residents, whether offsite or within the home. The garden has had a makeover and looks very pretty for residents and their families to enjoy in the summer months. I would thoroughly recommend Limegrive to anyone.

My mother moved into Lime Grove for respite care in October 2022. We found the staff to be most welcoming, everyone went out of their way to make mum feel at home and settled. Throughout my visits to Lime Grove, I have been greatly comforted by the professionalism, care and kindness that the staff have shown to my mother and other residents. Mum is now permanently living at Lime Grove and is very happy. My family have great comfort knowing that mum is being so well looked after and safe.

The place has a bright welcoming entrance. The staff are very professional, friendly and caring. I feel my sister is in good hands.

Visiting is always a pleasure.

My partner was admitted to Limegrove Care Home on the 28th of March 2022 and seemed reasonably content during the five months he was there. I was sad when he had to move to a nursing home as he needed one-to-one care. I was very impressed with the staff who were always kind and helpful and felt the home generally was well designed, comfortable and well run. My partner was a difficult and restless patient who needed almost constant attention but the staff coped admirably with him. If at any time something happened (such as a fall) they informed me and the authorities straight away. I will close by thanking everyone at Limegrove for all their care while my partner was residing there and if I ever need to live in a care home I could do a lot worse than choose Limegrove to end my days.

The overall feeling of reassurance that my mother is being well looked after.

I have been reluctant to place my mother in a care home for as long as she was able with the help of daycare visits to look after herself independently. Following several falls and wondering outside the house, it was necessary to move on. Limegrove provides 24-hour care and has proved themselves to be the ideal local solution with great staff.

Went on my weekly visit to see my cousin. She was waiting to have her Covid booster with other residents. When the staff saw me arrive, they immediately ensured she was next so I could continue my visit with her. The staff are always friendly and helpful and care for all the residents equally. At times I visit with one of my dogs, which both she and the other residents and staff enjoy. Looking forward to a future visit when he comes to sing for the residents, which she really enjoys, and I am becoming a fan too. The home is always inviting, and they provide lots of activities for the residents as well as providing them with a great variety of delicious food.

I was extremely worried about mum having to go into a home but her dementia made it impossible for me to look after her anymore. Limegrove felt like a safe happy space the moment we visited and they confirmed that they could meet mums needs. They were patient and empathetic during the time needed for mum to settle in and she is now happy and at home feeling safe. The staff are so patient and kind taking the time to really get to know each resident.

As a family we are delighted with the care my mother is receiving at Limegrove. The staff are an utter delight; they always have time to help, are so kind and caring and happy to talk with me at any time. The Home feels like a warm, friendly and comfortable place to be.

Our family would recommend Limegrove for their care, attention and efficiency.

My mother became a resident at Limegrove - East Horsley in March 2022 at the age of 101 years old. Having looked at several homes Limegrove stood out for us, partly because of the warm welcome we received the day we visited, plus it was a lively atmosphere and staff are very attentive to the residents we saw. Being able to take pieces her furniture and ornaments made her room cosy and very welcoming. Impressed with the variety of activities on offer and understand she likes "chair yoga" and a singalong. It is everything we had wished for mum.

During the most recent lockdown when visiting ceased, my father became seriously dehydrated and lost a significant amount of weight. Only when visitors were allowed back to the home was this escalated by us and he was submitted to hospital immediately but sadly passed away days later.
