Every single one of them are wonderful and work very hard to ensure our relatives are looked after with the best possible care. The life style team create a fantastic atmosphere where every resident is encouraged to participate in the varied, stimulating and fun activities. It's very inclusive with something for everyone and ever changing programme with old favourites to keep residents engaged, happy, stimulated and valued, It takes a special team to pull all this off ! Everyone is engaging and often going above and beyond to help our families. Their every need is catered for and we are kept fully informed.My Mum is always happy and more engaged, her dementia is the same but Mum is living her best fulfilling life. It's wonderful to see and such a relief. She even 'helps' in the office with clinical team ! Huge thanks to all involved in her care
Thank you so much for your kind words, Mum is amazing and is truly part of the team!
All staff involved in looking after mum give absolutely superb care and individual attention. Despite being in the home for over ten years they are always looking at ways to improve her life. i cannot fault anything. i recommend Davers to everyone i speak to about care homes.

I needed help for dad full time & went to Davers Court for respite care when I went on holiday last year. I was very pleased with the care at that time so knew, when the time was right, this was where I wanted dad to go. When I enquired about the process to move dad in permanently, a room had become available, so we decided the right time was then. I met with Hayden, and Sophie. Both were helpful with everything I needed to know. They accommodated me with when I moved dad in, which was a massive relief to me. Tara, Maintenance, was on hand all day to help when dad moved in, eg, she helped me set up the room with dad's furniture, so when we brought him in, the room was all ready for him. Dad has struggled to settle in but, absolutely nothing to do with the care he is receiving. He likes all the staff as everyone chats to him. The home itself has lots of areas to mix with people but also quiet areas. The food is lovely. No visiting restrictions. The staff and place are great!!
Thank you so much for this lovely review of our home, we are so proud and the team will really love hearing this feedback, thank you!

I had 2 weeks' respite at Davers Court after an operation. The care was excellent. Nothing was too much trouble. The atmosphere is happy and relaxed and all residents seem to enjoy being there, for whatever reason. Activities each day were great, especially the chair exercises. I have come home feeling so much better and able to continue to recover after the great care I have had in the last two weeks. It is a great place.
It was a pleasure to have you with us, so pleased you have recovered well, you are welcome back at any time.
I cannot praise the staff at Davers Court highly enough. They cared for my mother from September 2025, during what turned out to be the last few months of her life. They were never less than accommodating and attentive, going above and beyond to do their best to make mum feel at home and looked...
I cannot praise the staff at Davers Court highly enough. They cared for my mother from September 2025, during what turned out to be the last few months of her life. They were never less than accommodating and attentive, going above and beyond to do their best to make mum feel at home and looked after. Not only that, but they took time to look after me too, and went out of their way to make sure I was coping too.
Thank you so much for your kind words, I shall ensure this is passed to all the team. We miss Mum so much, she was such a character and made us all laugh daily.
Davers Court in Bury St Edmunds is such a kind, caring place. We could not have found a nicer place got our mum.

Davers Court in Bury St Edmunds is such a kind, caring place. We could not have found a nicer place got our mum. Everyone always has a smile on their face and all staff quickly got to know mum, making her feel 'at home'. A special thanks to Antonio and Sam on Meadows suite who have gone above and beyond to help mum settle in during such a difficult time in her life. We can't thank you enough.
Thank you so much for sending such a kind review, I have passed this onto the team, we are delighted to have Mum with us

I want to take this opportunity to thank the team for excellent help and advice in restoring my sister to much of a level of function of which she had become deprived following a stroke. The staff are extraordinary; well-selected and attentive, and, at times, required to carry out tasks which cannot be pleasant, yet they are unfailingly caring. It is an impressive performance. Staff, including administrative staff, are always available to assist visitors as well as residents. Davers Court is truly a very pleasant and welcoming place. To conclude, I had no conception of what care home life meant and what such an environment might entail, I have not been disappointed.
I cannot fault the care and compassion Davers Court has shown mum in her first month living in care. Mum has dementia and moving her into care has been one of the hardest things I've had to do. The staff at Davers have truly supported her every minute and the holistic care they provide is...
The activities on offer to residents is very inclusive and well thought out. Mum loves music and there is often live music on the week, which is encouraged to attend. Mum can be shy to join in; yet staff hold her hand and help her to feel at ease and safe enough to participate. It's so wonderful to see her smile and laugh and dance!
Mum's bedroom is warm, clean and well decorated, and can be fasioned as you want it. There are lots of areas mum can go, aside from her room - lounges, the coffee shop (with amazing cakes every day made by the wonderful chef!), and the gardens.
Everywhere we go, we are met with smiles, care and kindness. I would 100% recommend Davers Court.
The stunning facilities shine too:...
The stunning facilities shine too: award-winning gardens, a cinema for movie nights, an on-site café and salon, home cooked meals plus engaging daily events that keep life vibrant yet gentle and inclusive.
The team are always welcoming, enthusiastic and supportive - answering any questions whilst ensuring we're kept up to date through an app and on social media as well as face to face.
Dad's confidence and communication has soared, and our family's peace of mind is priceless. If you seek a warm, supportive community, look no further-five stars
I just want to thank staff at Davers Court for all their wonderful support over the last few days when my 97 year old mum fell and hit her head. All the care staff on Orchard suite were so kind, sitting and holding her hand whilst waiting for the paramedics and welcoming her back and helping her to...
Similarly both mum and I were well supported when mum became very poorly a few days later and we were all very concerned about her. We were both helped by the kindness and care we received from staff throughout this difficult time. Since mum has been able to walk and eat again whilst remaining very confused, we have been grateful for the help and advice from the Residential lead, Deputy Manager and Manager who are great role models and lead a very good team. A big thank you to you all!
Since moving to Davers Court mum has received excellent care from all members of the staff. There is a wide range of activities including many live music events and trips out. Special national celebrations are always made more special in the home for example VE day and a beach party in the...
Most importantly the staff communication with families is exemplary. We are included in conversations about care, promptly updated about changes in our mother's condition and always made welcome on the wings and joining in activities. I would recommend this home to other people.
Davers Court is an outstanding care home. My mother has advanced dementia and has been a resident since 2019. She recently had a stay in hospital and returned to the home unwell and confused. The excellent care she received from the Davers Court staff when she returned to them has turned her...
Davers Court is an outstanding care home. My mother has advanced dementia and has been a resident since 2019. She recently had a stay in hospital and returned to the home unwell and confused. The excellent care she received from the Davers Court staff when she returned to them has turned her condition around. She is well, happy and engaged. They pay such attention to detail and take such good care of the residents, I simply cannot thank the staff enough for everything they do.

I want to thank the care team of Orchards suite as they worked diligently to find a precious item of my mum's that helps her to recognise her room. It had been missing and as soon as it was brought to their attention the team leader found it and put it back into the room. The Activities team are just excellent people in their job and bring a happy smile to mum's face when she sees them. It's always a happy home when I go into visit mum. I would highly recommend this care home.
Thank you so much for leaving this wonderful review and for recommending us, the team will be delighted

I cannot think of a better place for my brother to be. He simply could not cope on his own at home. All the staff have been extremely kind to him to ensure he is well looked after and supported for all his needs. He told me "they feel like part of the family".

The home is warm, inviting, stimulating for all the residents.the food they have is amazing, always a selection on the menu.
The staff could not be more helpful, always willing to chat, sort out any queries we might have and go over and beyond their duties.
We are kept informed via the app on what is happening, together with an email each week of the activities on offer.
We are very happy with the care our mother is getting.
Mum has been in Davers Court for four weeks respite care and we have been very happy with her stay. We have found all staff to be friendly, caring, professional, approachable and helpful. Lovely comfortable clean facilities, the coffee shop is a lovely area to spend time with mum when visiting....
Mum has been in Davers Court for four weeks respite care and we have been very happy with her stay. We have found all staff to be friendly, caring, professional, approachable and helpful. Lovely comfortable clean facilities, the coffee shop is a lovely area to spend time with mum when visiting. Very good menu choices, good variety of activities and entertainment. Most importantly mum has been safe, happy and very well cared for. Thank you.
The care home was very welcoming and the staff were good at introducing themselves and making sure my father was settled and happy. There was a good range of activities to attend and the staff seemed to actively encourage attendance which made for an enjoyable stay.

Since April 2023 we continue to be impressed by all aspects of Davers Court, especially the varied daily activities offered to the residents. The care givers are exceptional, friendly and respectful. We see them encouraging the residents to partake in the social life of Davers Court. There is excellent two way communication between our mother and family members. The atmosphere in the coffee lounge comes across as a very happy place to relax in. Thank you to everyone.

From the moment she arrived, it was clear that the facility is dedicated to providing a nurturing and supportive environment for its residents, especially those living with Dementia. The staff are remarkable. They are not only highly trained and professional but also genuinely compassionate and attentive. The atmosphere of the care home is warm and inviting. The common areas are bright and cheerful, filled with art and decorations that create a home-like feel. Communication has also been a strong point. The management regularly updates us on my mother-in-law and is always available to discuss any concerns. The activities offered are diverse and engaging. There's always something happening that brings joy and social interaction to the residents. The welcoming environment have made this transition much easier for us and, most importantly, for our mother-in-law. We are grateful to have found such a wonderful place that prioritizes the well-being and happiness of its residents.

I have over 14 years’ experience in the care sector, working my way up from a Care Assistant, and I joined Care UK in 2016.
I’m passionate about working with the team to make Davers Court the very best it can be. Residents are happy and well cared for; it’s great when one of them wants to tell me about something they’ve enjoyed doing that day, because if they’re happy, we’re happy.
I love leading the team to provide the best possible care and support colleagues internally to be the best they can be and develop in the same ways I have over the years to reach their career goals.
It takes the right people to make a house a home, and the Davers family are a true family home.
