It has been such a pleasure to visit my Aunty at The Laurels, Huntley, the staff are just so kind and lovely. Nothing was too much trouble for them and always so happy in their work. The home is just so clean and a very happy place. I would recommend this home to anyone.

Mum moved to The Laurels at the beginning of June after careful consideration amongst the family. Mum was frail, lonely and underweight, and had lived on her own for 12 years. Within 6 weeks Mum's health has improved and she is putting weight on and looks so much happier than before. This is a lovely, homely, comfortable environment and the staff do their utmost to care and nurture all the residents. Having spent so much time worrying about Mum prior to her moving in, we now feel so reassured and confident Mum is having the best care possible and enjoying her life once again. Thank you to all the staff.
We are very lucky to welcome this lovely lady into our home! She came for day care to get used to us all and has settled in really well. She joins in all activities and likes to keep busy so she is involved in light housework, drying dishes and goes up to the pub with staff on Fridays.
Lovely to come and see my friend. Everybody is so kind. Just like visiting her in her own home.

The Laurels staff have been excellent with my mother. She moved into her room in May after a spell in hospital. She is a very independent person and I worried how she would settle in, but I should have had no such worry as all the staff have time for her and made her feel so welcome. My mother has improved no end since moving into The Laurels after living alone for two years after my father's death. Cannot recommend the Manager and her staff enough.
This lady came in for some respite from The Dylke Hospital, she liked it so much that she decided to stay! We are delighted to support such a lovely lady who has fitted in so well with the other residents.
The Laurels is a quite splendid residence in every respect. I could not be more content at the bright, sunny, airy room I have with all facilities.

It is a pleasure supporting this lady to rehabilitate with a view to returning to her bungalow following hospital admission. She is improving in her confidence and health everyday.
The owner does her best to please us, She is also a very generous person and we only have to ask if we want anything special.
Her aim is to please and take care of us, the residents.

There is a safe and sunny courtyard where the residents enjoy their morning coffee and afternoon tea and my dad has really taken to helping with minor tasks in the garden.
The home offers regular accompanied walks to the local shop to get a daily paper and I am constantly kept informed of my dad's progress and health needs.
I feel very pleased with the care The Laurels is giving my father and I would recommend it.
It is a pleasure to support this gentleman who is very happy at The Laurels. He is occupied daily with meaningful tasks in the garden and maintains my courtyard beautifully. He has also been helpful in planting the hanging baskets and painting bird tables. He attends the local rambling group in Huntley every week and is also escorted to a day centre in Cinderford on Thursdays.

I really cannot stress enough how pleased I am with every aspect of The Laurels. All staff are outstanding and care given is second to none! It;s a great comfort to know my step-father is being cared for in such a respectful way. His Key worker, in particular, goes out of his way to keep my step-father entertained; he is my step-father's favourite person.
It is an absolute pleasure caring for this gentleman - he helps to maintain the courtyard at The Laurels on a daily basis and also enjoys getting out and about in the local area.
My mum is very happy at The Laurels, it is very "homely". The staff are very caring and treat mum with great dignity. The food is excellent and tailored to the residents likes.

My father lived at The Laurels for six years. He was really happy there and very well cared for. The staff are all fantastic, making the effort to really get to know their residents. The manager was particularly helpful during my fathers last few weeks and I felt terrifically supported in this respect.
It was a pleasure caring for your father and working together with your family to ensure that all of his needs and desires were met.
I have travelled around a bit and this is one of the nicest places I've stayed in, and the best food I have ever had. A really nice and relaxing place to live. The staff and management are really good.

Our two cooks ensure that all food is cooked from fresh produce on a daily basis with lots of food options to suit individual tastes. The home made sponge cakes and puddings are delicious.
The service of this home is excellent in many ways. Friendly staff, wife range of meals to suit the individual, all needs are met. People are treated with respect and dignity, very homely. It has recently had a new manager who has peoples interests at heart and very approachable.

The ethos of The Laurels is to treat each person as an individual and with dignity and respect at all times.
I often turned up at odd times to collect or deliver items and was always helped. I would recommend to families with relatives at all stages of care needs.
