Larkswood Residential Home

and go far beyond the call of duty, always welcoming and obliging. Larkswood is always kept clean, the food is plentiful and when we visited today the Dining Room had been decorated for St Patrick's Day.
Our Brother has many Medical needs but this is supported by the manager and all her staff. My Brother and Sister in Law are regular visitors and they endorse everything we have said. We came to the Christmas Fair in December, so many staff on hand to assist, such a lovely atmosphere, lots of prizes, and wonderful food. Well done Larkswood. You are doing an amazing job!

is welcoming and homely with many of the building’s original features, which makes it feel like a home and not a clinically disinfected care home!
The management took time to listen to our concerns and understand our emotional distress at the decision we were about to embark on.
It turned out to be the best decision and our mum is happy and feels at home in this safe environment.
The staff are caring, and welcoming and feel like an extended family.
They’re helpful and approachable and nothing is too much trouble.
Mum has settled and made friends there, she enjoys the food and all the little treats.
Thank you Larkswood for your dedicated care, not just for Mum but for her family too.

supportive and knowledgeable, as is the deputy manager. My dad commented on how all the staff were friendly and helpful and that nothing was too much trouble for them. He also told me how homely it felt to be living there.
I visited frequently and I was always greeted with a smile and offered a cuppa. I always felt welcomed.
During his short stay at Larkswood, my dad enjoyed sitting in the garden which is well-kept and has a very nice seating area.
I can't recommend Larkswood enough. It can be very difficult when a loved one goes into a care home, but knowing my dad was so well cared for put my mind at ease.
Finally, very good value for money for an excellent service.

caring environment and I would recommend it to anyone.

pleased we chose Larkswood to look after Mum.

welcoming and respectful atmosphere with an essential element of fun and humour!
My ongoing thanks and admiration.

the essence of this particular home because they do care instead of pushing bits of paper around to fill a quota). Thank You

years ago when her needs increased to the point where it was no longer tenable to live at home. She loves it. The staff know her routine and cater to it. All dietary needs are met and nothing is too much trouble. Birthdays are made a huge fuss of and a personalised cake is produced with the Chef ensuring she makes a cake based on the resident's interests.

The Manager and Deputy are experienced in all aspects of care as are the staff. Nothing is too much trouble.

I really cannot fault them and as a retired nurse of 37 years with the NHS who has encountered many Care Homes during my career, I am quite confident in saying this home is outstanding.

pressurised. Her room was kept clean. I really can't fault this home.

advice on clothing needs.

The building is attractively furnished and spotlessly clean. Our first impressions were very positive and we felt confident leaving her in their care. I had phoned a few times before we visited and each time the opportunity to speak to my aunt was readily offered. As we live a four hour journey away all these positive vibes are so important to us.
