Review from J W (Daughter of Resident) published on 22 June 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
Food - variable - sometimes good, sometimes poor - meat can be chewy.

Lack of variety and interesting dishes.

Reply from Virginia Hyde, Manager at Millbrook House Residential Care Home
I am very sorry to hear that you are not happy with some areas. I would be more than happy to discuss this in person with you, and maybe we can look at the menu choices.
Please do not hesitate to give me a call anytime.

Regards.

Review from Nick S (Son of Resident) published on 8 April 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our mother was a resident at Millbrook until she passed away two weeks ago. My sisters and I could not speak more highly of Millbrook and all of its staff. They combined compassion and skill with extraordinary patience and kindness. Our mother was made extremely welcome in her pretty and clean room. She enjoyed good wholesome food in the bright and airy day rooms.
However, it was particularly towards the end of her life that we all came to appreciate their incredible commitment to their work and our mother despite the pressures of end of life care. The manager and all of her team are incredibly professional and will have our eternal gratitude for the way they managed our mother as her life ended.

With sincere thanks to them all.

Review from Corisande G (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 12 December 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My mother-in-law has been made most welcome during her stay at this care home over the last 6 weeks. The staff have been very caring towards her and she often comments on how kind and friendly they are. The beautiful old Georgian House is full of character and the home itself is kept immaculately clean. It is set in a picturesque village with views across the beautifully kept gardens towards Hambledon Hill. There are a variety of activities for the residents and my mother-in-law has particularly enjoyed visits from the local school and nursery children who have entertained the residents with their singing and nativity play. She has also enjoyed trips out for lunch at the local pub, as well as Garden and Christmas parties. There is a choice of food on the menu and my mother-in-law has particularly enjoyed the delicious homemade soups and hot dishes, many made from vegetables seen growing in the garden. Visitors are made very welcome at any time.
