Review from Trish C (Daughter of Resident) published on 26 March 2026 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My mother initially came for respite in January 2026 but is now a resident here.

The family and I found this a difficult decision especially as she wanted to go home and was quite upset.
However the staff have been amazing in managing this and allaying my worries with regular updates. The staff

all go above and beyond and ALWAYS have a smile and greeting. They have got to know my mum and her sense of humour so there are always lots of giggles. They have made this transition much easier for us to bear. I visit regularly and can now put mum first rather than worrying about appts / cooking meals / getting her dressed etc . I can now be a daughter to her and enjoy her company and laugh as we used to .
The home is extraordinary; a safe and nurturing environment which feels like one big family . Nothing is too much trouble and visitors are made so welcome.
Thank you for caring about my mum.

Reply from Madel Wrobel, Registered Manager at Ashley GardensThank you so much for your kind feedback. We understand how difficult this transition can be, and we're so glad our team has been able to support you and your mum. It means a lot to hear she is happy and that you can now enjoy special moments together. Thank you for trusting us with her care.

Overall Experience

I am very happy with the care my mother receives. I know she is happy, safe and well cared for and mentally stimulated. The staff are lovely, and when I visit, I feel as though I am part of an extended family. It was a massive decision for me to place mum in care, but I know she is in the right place

and that I could never give her the care she now requires; that Ashley Gardens gives her. I am very grateful to all the staff for the love and care Mum receives.

Reply from Madel Wrobel, Registered Manager at Ashley GardensThank you so much for your kind words. they really means a lot to all of us here at Ashley Gardens.

Review from Jennifer C (Daughter of Resident) published on 1 July 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My mother has been in Ashley Gardens since October 2024 and we couldn't ask for better care for her. All the management and staff are very caring to residents and make the families very welcome at all times involving them in regular events and activities. All the residents are able to take part in

activities such as exercise, singing, quizzes and crafting morning and afternoon seven days a week. Families are updated on a regular basis about any health issues. When my mother was admitted to hospital earlier this year the Manager and other carers kept in touch with the hospital to get regular updates on her condition and welcomed her back when she was discharged. Since then the staff have helped her to improve her mobility and health. Residents receive regular health checks. They make sure that residents have healthy well balanced meals, fruit and fluid intake is monitored.

Reply from Madel Wrobel, Registered Manager at Ashley GardensThank you so much for your lovely feedback. We are truly grateful for your kind words and so pleased to hear your mother feels well cared for at Ashley Gardens. We are especially touched that you appreciated the communication during her hospital stay, keeping families informed and involved is so important to us. Creating a supportive, welcoming environment for both residents and their loved ones is always our priority. We are glad to see your mother's health improving and will continue to support her every step of the way. Thank you once again.

My mum has been living at this care home for some time now, and we've been very happy with the care she receives. The staff are always friendly, kind, and genuinely caring - it's clear they treat residents with respect and compassion. The facilities are clean, well maintained, and provide a comfortable

environment. The food is also very good, with a nice variety of meals. My dad visits my mum regularly and is always warmly welcomed by everyone, which means a lot to our family. We feel reassured knowing she's in such a supportive and caring place.

All the staff have a very positive approach when dealing with the residents. They are very attentive of their needs and are very caring.

Review from Tracy M (Daughter of Resident) published on 10 March 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My Mum with Dementia was so unhappy and cried every day until she moved into Ashley Gardens. She is now like her old self again, laughing once more and loves to feel a part of the community they have at the home. I couldn't have asked for a better place for my Mum to live. The staff are all excellent

and go above and beyond for the people in their care and the family and friends of the people in their care.
If you are in any doubt before placing a loved one in care, visit Ashley Gardens and see for yourself what a lovely vibe there is on arrival.

Review from Carol M (Daughter of Resident) published on 13 June 2022 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My dad went into Ashleigh Gardens in February this year, aged 96.
We could not have asked for anywhere better for my dad to be living in his remaining years.
He has settled in without a problem.
The accommodation is lovely, very clean and bright. Dad's room is lovely, everything he could need.
But

above all this the Staff, every single one has been excellent with dad's care, there have been a couple of testing times, but they have excelled, and his medical attention has been top-notch.
His welfare and mental comfort and happiness have been taken care of. My mum and I have been so grateful for the living care dad has been shown.
Highly recommend.
