Review from Teresa C (Daughter of Resident) published on 12 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My father spent 2 weeks at Westfields while work was being carried out at his home. He enjoyed his stay at this time, being able to chat with other residents, spending time in the garden and communal sitting rooms watching TV.
He said the food was good and the staff looked after him very well, getting a shower every day and having his clothes all laundered ready for his return home
A lovely clean place for the residents.
I spoke with a few of the residents and they have so much praise for the staff and the care given over their years living in Westfields.

Thank you to all involved with looking after my dad.

Overall Experience

We were always happy with mum's care; she was always kept clean, tidy and very well fed, her room was always kept clean, tidy and fresh, as were her clothes. At the end of her life, we were informed about how things were going and at the end, nobody could have been more helpful.

Review from Jill H (Sister of Resident) published on 13 October 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My sister was a resident at Westfields care home, Swaffham, from May 2024 until September 2025, when she sadly passed away aged 91. During her stay, she was always treated as an individual with courtesy and respect. Nothing was ever too much for the staff and there was an excellent choice of daily activities. Her medical needs were well looked after, with the local GP matron called in if there was any concern. I was impressed with the standard and choice of food, and cups of tea were always available. Her room was bright and cheery, as were her carers. The management team and admin staff were extremely accommodating, always ready to help. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Westfields. Well done, Westfields!

Reply from Matthew Anthony-Knell, Manager at Westfields

Westfield is the most wonderful home, the care and attention is outstanding. My mother has been in the home now 3 years, always well fed and beautifully clean. The staff are fantastic, so friendly. Staff goes above and beyond entertaining the residents. This home is a 5 star.

Review from Sandra R (Daughter of Resident) published on 26 November 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My Mum was a resident at Westfields from January until October 2024 and the care she received during this time was second to none. All the staff (from the Manager down to the Handyman) are all caring compassionate people. Having been discharged from hospital for end-of-life care she was treated with dignity and respect and various family members visiting in the final few weeks and days were treated with the utmost kindness.

Reply from Claudia Maranu, Deputy Manager at Westfields

Thank you so much for your kind words. It was a pleasure to care for your mum and we're glad we were able to make her passing as peaceful and pleasant for everyone. Our condolences, again, to you and your family, and our gratitude for your generous gifts. Everyone here at Westfields wishes you all the best.

I have visited Westfields a couple of times since the ladies I looked after were moved to this care home for 24-hour care which I couldn't provide, I am delighted that they have both settled so well, the staff are lovely and welcoming, the home is so clean and well-organised, the manger has been a godsend with these ladies, she goes above and beyond not just for them but every resident, I would highly recommend this home to anyone, care here is top class.

Review from Doris W (Resident / Service User) published on 5 June 2024 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I recently moved into Westfields following two falls at home. Initially, I intended to stay for two months in respite care. All of the staff have been so kind and caring and my room is bright, clean and freshly decorated with personal possessions around me. The meals are very good and cups of tea are available at any time. We have different activities organised every day to keep residents stimulated. I have quickly realised I am much safe here and intend to continue my stay after the respite period.

Review from Chris N (Son of Resident) published on 5 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The CQC rating for Westfields was “Excellent,” the description I would say was “Bang On.”
Westfields was home for my mum aged 96 from July 2023 until January 2024. In her time there she received brilliant care situated in her own en-suite room. The biggest asset to this home is the people who work there from the management team, care team, admin team (even the maintenance man would pop in and have a chat with Mum which she loved).
The building is immaculately clean, and resembles a boutique hotel full marks to the housekeeping team.
Early in the new year Mum was taken ill with sepsis, which after a brief stay in hospital she was returned to Westfield for palliative care to be nursed by the care team until her death, in this time she was treated with reverence, total respect and calm sensitivity something we observed and will never forget.

This home and its excellent staff, I would highly recommend to anyone.

Review from S C (Daughter of Resident) published on 24 November 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
My mother went into Westfields for a week's respite in June 2022 and then said

"I love it here I don't want to go home"!. I had cared for her for 10 years and after another heart problem, it sometimes took two to get her up. Mum (then93) flourished. She enjoyed the company, the activities and her room. Mum became ill in October 2023 the care was excellent. The staff went the extra mile to make sure she was comfortable and they supported the family too!

I cannot thank Westfields staff enough for the care and support they have given to my grandmother over this past week. As a family, we have absolute piece of mind knowing she is in the best hands and receiving the care she deserves. Nothing is too much trouble, when we visit we are made to feel welcome and everyone is very friendly. We visited during the coronation and the staff were engaging and created a fun atmosphere. Activities had been well thought out and it is apparent that the resident's wellbeing is a high priority.

From all the family, thank you so much!

Overall Experience
We would like to thank everyone at Westfields for the care and attention given to our brother-in-law in the short time he was in their care.
The care he was given was, in our view, outstanding.
From his initial assessment by the Westfields manager at the hospital through to his admission, everything was explained and went smoothly.

All of the staff we had contact with were very professional and kind, thank you all.

Reply from Jack Anthony-Knell, Manager at Westfields

It was a true pleasure to have your brother-in-law stay with us at Westfields. We are all honoured to have met and cared for him. You are always welcome at Westfields and we hope to see you in the near future.

Review from J H (Daughter of Resident) published on 20 May 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I cannot praise the care and service provided by this exceptional care home highly enough. Westfields is led and managed by a very strong management team who go the extra distance to make sure that their resident's needs are fully catered for by their caring and helpful team. My mother has now had her third respite placement at Westfields and that in itself speaks for itself! It is undoubtedly a difficult time when decisions on care and placements have to be made, from both the individual and family’s perspective, but the care and detail that the Westfields manager and team have placed into supporting us through this is something that we are incredibly grateful for.

Reply from Jack Anthony-Knell, Manager at Westfields

Thank you so much for your very kind words, everyone at Westfields always extends their efforts to ensure that any visit to Westfields is a pleasurable and welcoming one. It has always been a pleasure to have Mum visit. We are looking forward to her to visit in the near future.
