My father celebrated his 100th birthday in March 2026. A small family party was arranged by Southlands Place staff throughout the process from the initial enquiry to the event on the day, nothing was too much trouble. Management and reception staff were supportive and efficient, care staff were friendly,
caring and professional, and catering staff produced a buffet and cake of very good quality and suitable for the occasion. On the day the room was decorated brilliantly and arranged in such a way that conversations could be had and photographs taken. All in all a great day. Thank you Southlands.
Reply from Rhiannon Freeman-Gray, Review Team at Southlands PlaceWe really appreciate you taking the time to leave us this lovely review. It was a pleasure to help your father celebrate this very special milestone, and we're delighted to hear how much you enjoyed the birthday party. It's great that you and your family enjoyed the food and decorations. Thank you!

Southlands Place has all that you would expect from a very good care home facility, but in my short experience so much more: A welcoming, open atmosphere with plenty of light, airy space. Celebrating Christmas, Chinese New Year, Mothers Day etc with cheerful decorations and activities, bringing the
outside in. This is outstanding and unusual to find in my experience. Found resident/relative meetings for suggestions are a breath of fresh air. Good team work creates a calm atmosphere in often challenging times. Impressive attention to care and detail, involving family to resolve difficult issues at a sad and difficult time, is very welcome.
Reply from Stuart Lamacraft, Reviews Team at Southlands PlaceThank you for such thoughtful feedback. We're delighted to hear that the atmosphere, celebrations and family involvement at Southlands Place have made such a positive impression. Your kind words about the teamwork, care and support during difficult times mean a great deal to us all.

I have been in Souhlands Place for two weeks and have met with nothing but kindness from all the staff. The room is lovely and everywhere is spotlessly clean. The food is very good and although I have a liquid diet there is not much the chef doesn't manage to puree. All in all this is a very comfortable
place to be.
Reply from Stuart Lamacraft, Reviews Team at Southlands PlaceWelcome to Southlands! Thank you for sharing your first impressions of life within your new home, especially the kind welcome from the staff.

I have been at Southlands Place for just over two years. I find the staff very helpful and willing to assist when necessary. It is of great comfort to me that staff are on hand to assist 24 hours a day if I need them. My son and daughter were able to accompany me to a lovely mothers day lunch, which
we all enjoyed. There are lots of different activities laid on. I particularly enjoy the musical ones.
Reply from Stuart Lamacraft, Reviews Team at Southlands PlaceThank you for sharing your experience. We're so pleased to hear you feel supported by the team and enjoy the activities, especially the musical ones.

I would like to thank the wonderful team on the ground floor for their superb care of my mother. At a recent hospital appointment the consultant was very impressed by the comprehensive notes and information I was given to take to the appointment by the team. It appears this is not what they normally
see, but it is standard practice for Southlands Place. The consultant also commented on how well cared for her skin is. "You are somewhere very special" were his words to her. We know that. My mother is cared for so well and not just physically as her emotional wellbeing is just as important to them.
Reply from Rhiannon Freeman-Gray, Divisional Marketing Manager at Southlands PlaceThank you so much for your kind words! This lovely review really means so much to our whole team. It's great to hear how impressed the consultant was with the care your mother is receiving, especially her skin. If there's ever anything more we can do for you or for her, please don't hesitate to ask!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My husband was admitted onto the 2nd floor, very much mentally alert but in reality at the end of life, and I was unable to continue looking after him at home. Not only were the staff professionally competent and personally engaging with him as the resident, but I feel that that they all equally supported
me and my emotional needs at such a challenging time. The environment of the home is light and bright, for residents able and inclined to take part in activities there is plenty to occupy them, the food is plentiful and generally of a high standard, and the flexibility of visiting second to none. In my husband's last week on a syringe driver, I was able to stay in his room overnight, and was able to feel a part of his life closing down, in a very comfortable and compassionate way.
Reply from Rowen Campbell, on behalf of the team at Southlands PlaceThank you for taking the time to write us a review and for sharing your story on this platform. It was an honour to be able to care for your husband during that time, and we're glad that you were able to be such an important part of it too. We're glad to have been of support to you as well, and if there is ever anything more we can do, please just let us know.

A lovely setting, with a very caring and kind nursing team. Southlands has a calming feel to it, and I always feel welcome when popping in to visit.


I am very grateful that my father is able to be a resident and receive the care he needs, to support with a nasty degenerative illness.

Mum arrived in a poor state of health after 16 weeks in hospital. Slowly but surely and with great kindness, care and expertise, the staff helped her settle and rest relax and repair giving her a wonderful last year of life. She had company, fun activities, parties, entertainment- a full social calendar!
As her life was drawing to a close the care was sensitive as were the meetings with family. She was at peace, looked beautiful and we were so touched. Thank you.
Reply from Rowen Campbell, on behalf of the team at Southlands PlaceThank you for your kind words - we are all so sorry for your loss.

Southlands Place provides outstanding person centred care, treating clients with dignity and respect. Staff put all the residents first, and nothing is too much trouble even when they are busy.
As a personal assistant to a resident whom I take out on a weekly basis, I liaise with activities assistant,
nurse practitioners, incl. care staff, all of whom are kind, friendly and approachable.

I am so pleased with Southlands Place for my elderly 103 year old friend. He initially came in for respite yet after a short while we came to the conclusion that he would be much happier and safer at Southlands Place care home after having several falls at home.
He has not had one fall in Southlands
place and I regularly cook him if he is happy and comfortable to which he replies "oh yes I am quite comfy here and the stay are lovely" I never thought I would hear him say that as he never liked the idea of a home yet Southlands Place has stayed up to the mark.

I am very happy with my mum being at Southlands Place. The staff are very friendly and seem to really care about their clients.
The building is bright and welcoming with a bistro area near the reception that gives off a good vibe.
There are activities to do daily if one wishes, singing, arts and crafts,
film afternoons, bingo, music and memories etc.
There is a dinning room if one wishes to socialise. With a lounge and dinner room area on each floor with other rooms to sit in quietly if one wishes.

My father-in-law has now been at Southlands for a year. During this time I have nothing but praise for the entertainments girls. Every month there is a different theme and it is always a pleasure to walk in. Their recent autumn window is amazing from the outside I thought the drawings were stencils,
but no, everything to my amazement was hand drawn! They are a credit to the home.

The staff are amazing, very kind and caring and nothing is too much trouble. Although cleanliness almost everywhere is good, sometimes my mum's room has not been hoovered as often as I think it should be. Food, I think there could be more emphasis put on vegetables and salads, especially in the summer.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.668)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.668) out of 10 for Southlands Place is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 36 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 34 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 4.668 for Southlands Place is calculated as follows: ( (313 Excellents x 5) + (81 Goods x 4) + (15 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (6 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 416 Ratings = 4.668
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Southlands Place is based on 34 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 4
    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 72 registered maximum number of service users is 14.4, which has been reached with 34 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.

I have been at Southlands Place for over four years and am proud to have been promoted from Deputy Manager to Home Manager in that time.


As a registered general nurse, I started out my career at Hurstwood Park Neurological Centre, working in the intensive care unit, specialising in brain trauma and injury, supporting patients with Neurological deficits. From there, I transferred my skills to working with residents living with dementia. I have previously managed Nursing Homes and supported the needs of a diverse range of residents.


It is important to me that our residents receive the care and respect that they deserve and that they see this as their home and family. Every day, my team and I want to make a difference to our residents’ lives, seeing a smile on their face and laughing makes everything worthwhile. I have an amazing team around me, and it is important to me that my team are supported in their roles to assist our residents, as well as giving them the opportunity to develop and learn new skills, as this is what has helped me throughout my career.


I hope to welcome you to Southlands Place soon, I’d be delighted to show you around. Best wishes, Fiona.
