Meadowcroft have really looked after my mum since she moved in during April 2025. All the staff are very caring and supportive, not just to my mum but to us family too. They encourage my mum who has Alzheimers to take part in activities which they hold every morning and afternoon. Mum especially loves
the singing activities. The home is very clean and the garden is beautiful. The residents can help in the garden if they enjoy gardening. It's lovely that Meadowcroft take the residents out on visits too. Mum loved going to have tea and cake.

Meadowcroft is a really lovely home to all the residents. My mother was wary of moving into a rest home permanently, undertstandably as she has alway been very independant.
The Manager was and is very supportive of all the family .
Mum had three respite stays and enjoyed each stay, and then the time
came when she felt she could no longer be independant and was becoming lonely. She made the decision to move in permanently and is very happy.
The staff are all very efficient and kind. There is always a happy atmosphere when I visit Mum.
It is very clean, the food is good and the gardens are beautiful.
There are lots of activities and entertainment, if you want to participate.
All the family are very pleased and happy that Mum has now moved into Meadowcroft, and we all enjoy visiting her.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Mother came to Meadowcroft in difficult circumstances, as my father had passed away, and she was unable to live independently. Prior to her going there sisters and I looked around the different care homes in Shoreham By Sea and Meadowcroft shone out as a nice, friendly place where my mother would
feel comfortable and be safe. In making the transition to staying there, the staff were very helpful and friendly, making her feel welcome and part of the care home family. Mum moved there in April 2025 and has settled in nicely now. Mum has been diagnosed with Alzheimer's and has short term memory problems. The staff at Meadowcroft are well aware of this and are able to assist with her needs. Before moving there she sometimes would not get dressed or washed, now though she has got into a nice routine takes a certain pride in her appearance, which I think is indicative of how well she has adjusted to living there.

Very friendly and approachable staff and very attentive. Nothing is too much trouble for them if my grandmother would like or needs something. I feel she is safe and being very well cared for here. They are very friendly, caring and competent staff. There is wide range of options for meals available.
The building is kept very well, clean and smelling great; plus the upkeep of the beautiful gardens surrounding the home too. I feel very comforted that my grandmother is very safe and being very well looked after there.

Mum has been living at Meadowcroft for just over a year and it really is a home from home for her.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I first visited Meadowcroft in the summer of 2024 and immediately felt it was the perfect place for my mum to move to once she was no longer able to stay at home independently. It's so friendly and homely, the staff are all really kind and thoughtful and it is managed really well. The rooms are characterful,
spacious and bright. One of the most important things to me was to find a care home for mum which genuinely had a lot of activities going on for the residents, as I knew mum would not settle well otherwise. Each Sunday a new activities timetable for the week is delivered to the residents rooms so that they can choose what they would like to join in with during the week ahead. Singing sessions, exercise classes, visits from the children from the nursery next door. And much more. It's such a relief to know my mum is being so well cared for.
Reply from Susan Briggs, Home Manager at Meadowcroft

Located in an old house Meadowcroft has a homely atmosphere. Its kind and attentive staff are always ready, and have time, to assist. Home and/or hospital visits are arranged and managed for the residents as required. Visits by the local school, singers, a local dog, hairdresser, podiatrist & others
along with a varied selection of activities keep everyone occupied. With friends & family encouraged to visit whenever they are able it seems more like a large family home than a residential care establishment.

Early days yet but my brother-in-law was admitted after a short stay in hospital and for a temporary stay which could become permanent.
The process of viewing the home and deciding on his admission was friendly and easy.
On admission, the staff were welcoming and accommodating. The manager was flexible
and helpful in discussing his needs.

A care home can never replace anybody's forever home, but Meadowcroft, staff, management carers etc. provide a class alternative, short-term or long, for those requiring an alternative to their home.
The building is impressive, located in a lovely part of Shoreham, and its interior doesn't disappoint!
Rooms are light bright airy and inviting, mirroring the atmosphere within and its residents that earn a similarly glowing description.
We were unsure about placing our elderly mum into a home, whether for respite or for longer. But worries were soon dispelled as we arrived for an assessment visit and were totally alleviated after Mum was accepted into the home, settling in perfectly thanks to her staff, and the general openness of the residents. The rooms are fine rooms and the food good! There are also many activities, which one may or may not wish to join in.
A wonderful place! They have helped us in making decisions, and have been brilliant for our trying, but wonderful mum.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.831)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.831) out of 10 for Meadowcroft is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 42 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 42 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 4.831 for Meadowcroft is calculated as follows: ( (413 Excellents x 5) + (71 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 490 Ratings = 4.831
  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 Meadowcroft is based on 42 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 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 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 20 registered maximum number of service users is 4, which has been reached with 42 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.
