  • Greystones, Bath
Established in 1947, Bath Centre for Voluntary Service Homes trading as GreystonesCare has cared with dedication and compassion for those who need care. Run as a nonprofit organisation, every decision and every penny is devoted to the wellbeing of residents.

Greystones residential care home is a welcoming late-Victorian house built around 1900. Once a family home, it still carries its warmth and charm, while being thoughtfully modernised to meet today’s care needs.

That warmth extends throughout the home. Bedrooms are light and airy, many with views of the surrounding scenery, and residents are encouraged to personalise their rooms to create a true sense of home. The conservatory, opening onto the garden, is one of the most loved spaces - bright and lively, a place for music, crafts, and celebrations.

Care at Greystones is deeply personal and built on trust. Every resident is welcomed as part of the family, valued for who they are. Here, traditions endure and connections flourish.

Review from A W (Daughter of Resident) published on 10 April 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
After a short period of respite care at Greystones, Mum realised that she needed full-time care and decided to stay. As a family we were shown great empathy, care and consideration both now and during this transition. All members of the team I have met show genuine interest and respect towards the residents.
The home has an air of calm and peacefulness through a mixture of routines and individual flexibility. I would highly recommend Greystones.

Review from Jo J (Daughter of Resident) published on 15 January 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum was a resident at Greystones for nearly three years and I am so glad that her last years were spent in such a caring home. All of the staff, including the managers, were kind, friendly and helpful to Mum and also to me. They often willingly went the extra mile to ensure Mum was well looked after.
Her practical needs were fully met and staff would frequently take the time to have a chat and giggle with her too. The little touches in the home such as fresh flowers in the communal areas and Birthday and Christmas cards and presents to residents indicated their genuine focus on resident's happiness and well-being. Staff always kept family members informed of any health problems and would frequently arrange doctors visits if needed. I thoroughly recommend Greystones. It is homely and welcoming and not institutionalised like many care homes. A heartfelt thank you to you.
Reply from Marie Perkins, Secretary at GreystonesThank you so much for your kind words. We really appreciate you taking the time out to share your experience with us and thank you for your positive review of Greystones, we will pass your comments on to our staff team.

Review from Rachel C (Daughter of Resident) published on 2 November 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My father lived at Greystones for just over three years. I was always confident that he was being cared for well. The day to daycare was exceptional, the carers looked after him sensitively and with warmth, always making sure his needs and requests were met. He always looked smart and his clothes were
clean and ironed and he was given help to change as often as necessary. The staff and manager communicated well so the manager was fully aware of issues and could decide on a course of action. Outside agencies such as physios were bought in for his benefit. I am happy and grateful that his last years were comfortable and secure.
