Beechcroft Residential Home is a boutique care home founded on the principle that every resident deserves the same level of care, kindness, and respect that one would provide for their own family members. The dedicated staff take pride in fostering an environment that feels like an extended family, where residents are not just cared for but truly valued.

At Beechcroft, most residents maintain a degree of independence but benefit from the warmth and reassurance of 24-hour support. The home’s small size allows for a close-knit, friendly atmosphere where residents form meaningful relationships with both carers and each other. It’s a place where everyone is treated with dignity and respect, and a sense of community thrives.

Residents are encouraged to participate in daily activities, enjoy nutritious meals, rest comfortably, and maintain connections with their loved ones. The home’s focus is on rekindling a zest for life, ensuring that each resident’s individual needs and preferences are always met with personal attention.

Beechwood has strong connections with the local community, welcoming regular visits from the nearby nursery and monthly visits from the vicar.

Beechcroft offers both long-term residential care and flexible day-care options. Day-care guests are welcome to join for the day and return home in the evening, while shorter visits for a few hours are available for those who wish to enjoy the home’s warm and welcoming atmosphere, whether for a cup of tea, a relaxing bath, or participation in daily activities.

The home is proud to be a winner of the Top 20 Care Homes in South West England Award 2025.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Having attended a daycare at Beechcroft four days a week for several months my mum has become a full-time resident. I'm so pleased we found this lovely home so close by and from day one I have been impressed by the homely friendly atmosphere. I am very happy with the standard of care my mum receives.
I am always made welcome and can highly recommend Beechcroft Residential Home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
There are always cold drinks in the lounge but as my sister is diabetic she prefers water, however the water jug is kept in her room and is glass. We think this would be better kept by her when she is away from her room.

Review from Mark C (Grandson of Resident) published on 28 February 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Grandmother has been a resident at Beechcroft Residential Home for the last few years and is very happy with the service she receives. I always enjoy coming down to visit my Grandmother and I am always welcomed with open arms by all of the staff and offered a coffee to enjoy while having a catch-up.
The facilities are very clean and well managed. There is plenty of entertainment for all of the residents every day and the food is good. My Grandmother, who has just turned 96 always speaks very highly of the team who look after her and we both very much appreciate all of their hard work. I always feel that when I leave the home that my Grandmother is happy and being looked after which is a huge comfort considering her age. Well done Beechcroft and keep up the great work you all do!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has been a resident of Beechcroft for 2 years and she is very happy there. The staff are all extremely professional and very kind to her. They are patient and caring and she loves them all. The manager and assistant manager are approachable and always find time for a chat or to sort out any
worries.
Lots of activities are arranged for the residents who want to take part and my mum always enjoys them. The food is good and they have a choice for most meals. There is always a happy atmosphere and lots of love around. I feel that I can relax knowing that mum is safe and well cared for and that is a huge weight off my mind.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.949)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.949) out of 10 for Beechcroft Residential Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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 4.949 for Beechcroft Residential Home is calculated as follows: ( (225 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 237 Ratings = 4.949
  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 Beechcroft Residential Home is based on 20 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 18 registered maximum number of service users is 3.6, which has been reached with 20 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.
