My father has now been a resident in the dementia unit of this home for five months and I cannot express how delighted we are for his care and well-being since his arrival. The decision to leave the family home, as many know is such a hard one for all concerned and I can truly say Barlavington have
been there for everyone, every step of the way. Every member of staff is kind and considerate to each individual needs. I know my father's care is in safe hands.
Thank you.

Barlavington Manor Residential & Dementia Care Home & Assisted Living Village is a wonderful place that really does feel unique. My mother spent three and a half wonderful years there and I only have good things to say. The staff, environment, gardens, food and activities are all top-notch. You can
really see that everyone goes out of their way to make the residents feel cared for.

It was almost two years ago today that we discovered that my mother was not coping well at home. She had had a couple of falls and it was clear she was finding it harder and harder to take care of herself. Since she came to Barlavington Manor Residential & Dementia Care Home & Assisted Living Village,
she was like a different person. For my sister and I, it was a huge weight taken off our shoulders. Everyone has been amazing and she adores the setting, food and activities.

My mother has been staying at Barlavington Manor for a period of 16 months. Over this time period she has flourished and rebuilt her confidence after my father passed away. She is treated with love and kindness, and the team are wonderful across the board. The location and setting is absolutely stunning
and cannot be beaten.

Mum has always been very happy at Barlavington. It fills us with a lot of reassurance that she is in good hands, especially since we are based overseas. Whenever we come and visit, we are greeted by lovely staff, and Mum always sings their praises. Thank you.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother is a resident of Barlavington as Alzheimer's made it impossible for her to live unaided. We looked for a care home that shared our values. I liked the Barlavington team on my first visit. The team is friendly, professional, and understanding. The care home is very well organised, and immaculately
clean. The residents are comfortable and reassured by set routines and are encouraged to participate in the numerous activities that are organized to provide stimulus. We decided on a respite stay and the Barlavington team was really supportive of the transition. Mum settled in and we knew this care home was the right permanent decision. Mum's Alzheimer's has progressed so she has moved into the dementia wing. All the team are really wonderful; they are caring, respectful, and know the needs of each of their residents. As a regular and random visitor, I see that nothing is too much trouble to ensure each resident is safe, clean, and stimulated whatever their dementia condition.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has been a resident at Barlavington Manor for fourteen months, initially in residential, but very soon after moving in we were advised that she would be better provided for and happier within the Dementia Unit. I was initially unsure, but it proved to be the right decision and my mother is
very happy and contented. The level of care is exemplary; the carers are so patient, so kind and indeed loving towards the residents, and from what I observe they treat all residents with equal care and attention - although their individual needs differ. The activities coordinator does a great job in facilitating both relevant and clearly enjoyable activities and visiting family members are both encouraged and warmly welcomed. The staff bring as many of the residents together in the main room during the day and the atmosphere and spirit engendered is wonderful. The home is kept spotlessly clean and tidy at all times, both communal areas and bedrooms. I cannot recommend Barlavington highly enough.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Following the passing of our mother in 2021, it became apparent that care and support would be required for my father and we started looking for alternative accommodation with appropriate care locally in West Sussex.
Several local authority homes were viewed and purchasing a flat with warden support
was considered.
We eventually found a wonderful two-bedroom bungalow with assisted living at Barlavington Court, Barlavington Manor Residential & Dementia Care Home & Assisted Living Village.
My father has spent two wonderful years there.
In January 2023, my father had a serious fall in the bungalow and was hospitalised.
On return to Barlavington, it was recommended that he move into the main house to recover and where 24/7 support could be provided; he remains in the house today.
I cannot praise the staff enough for their dedication, professionalism, care and compassion for all the residents in Barlavington. The accommodation and facilities are second to none.
This facility is highly recommended, well done Barlavington.

Whenever we went to visit granny she seemed very happy and comfortable. She made a lot of friends with both the residents and the staff. Granny always lived in the area, so it was so nice that she did not have to go far. It was very reassuring to all of us that we could visit her whenever we wanted,
and that we felt she was in the best place to accommodate her needs. We did originally start with home care, but we found that she had become very isolated. When we moved her to Barlavington Manor she started smiling again which was so heartwarming to see.

My father spent 2 years at Barlavington Manor and we have nothing but good things to say about the premises and the team. We were recommended them by the local doctors' surgery and they have a great reputation in the surrounding area. Each resident is very much treated as an individual and with immense
respect. We are just so delighted that my father's final years were spent here. We will very much miss the manager and everyone that we built close relationships with while dad was with them. We wish you all the best.

The most tranquil, peaceful and glorious place, with fantastic activities and beautiful surroundings. Such friendly and accommodating staff. The manager made a very positive impression on us. You can tell Barlavington Manor is well run. It was very hard for us to make the decision to put Mum in a care
home, and we looked at so many. As a family, we were so happy with our decision. Thank you to the whole staffing team.

From the moment you step into Barlavington Manor, you are greeted with warm hearts and big smiles. The gardens are stunning, and the care is second to none. You can really tell this is a family-owned care home where both the staff and the owners are very passionate about what they do.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
In the 4½ years of Mum's and my Aunt's occupancy of the home, all aspects of care have been 5*, both in the main home and the dementia unit. The staff always goes that extra mile with a smile on their face. It is a happy home and that energy transmits itself to the residents.
The end of life care
offered to Mum most recently will always stay with me in a heartfelt way. The loving care was exemplary.
That level of care continues for my aunt in the dementia unit. I'm always kept informed of her circumstances and therefore feel totally relaxed about her situation. Couldn't possibly ask for more.

I came here 6 months ago and am still active enough at 103. To live in a bungalow with my own furniture, a cleaner comes weekly and my washing is done.
A staff member calls every morning to check on me. I go to the house for a main meal and for activities and company at any time. The staff could not
be kinder or more helpful even though short-staffed. I find it a happy and comfortable place to live.

  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 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 4.958 for Barlavington Manor Residential & Dementia Care Home & Assisted Living Village is calculated as follows: ( (274 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 286 Ratings = 4.958
  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 Barlavington Manor Residential & Dementia Care Home & Assisted Living Village is based on 24 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 57 registered maximum number of service users is 11.4, which has been reached with 24 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.
