Bryony House

My mother has stayed at Bryony House several times (for respite care) sometimes it has been at short notice. On every occasion they have been very accommodating and has always made my mother very welcome. Many staff know her name and greet her with a smile! My mother (who has dementia) is always quite happy to go to Bryony House and we feel lucky to have found such a place

I have always found the staff helpful and welcoming. When I visit, they have always made the person I visit available. They have always answered questions and kept me informed when I visit regarding my friend's situation. I have not visited when activities are being undertaken but have been welcomed into some entertainments. The residents have certainly enjoyed the entertainments. I would recommend the home to others.

The staff at Bryony House are fantastic - kind and caring. They do everything they can for the residents to make them feel at home. They went above and beyond to get my mum to eat when she had not been eating before she went to live there. My mum could not be better cared for anywhere else. When I see her she tells me how lovely all the staff are and how she likes living at Bryony House. I don't worry about her all the time anymore because I know she is being well looked after.

Above all, he is happy which is important to all our family.

I used to visit this home in a professional capacity so had no doubt that when my mother needed care this was the place!

He loves the activities especially when have a singer and music.

My mother has been at Bryony House for nearly ten years and thinks of Bryony House as her home. She is always complimentary about the food and looks forward to the many assisted activities that are offered.

Father-in-law has only praised his care with everything at hand, lovely room, wonderful meals and staff always have time for a chat as well as caring.

Bryony House is a lovely home for my dad. He has a warm, cosy room, overlooking the garden. The food is fantastic - he loves it. The home is always clean and smells nice. The staff are friendly and helpful. Can't thank everyone enough, always something going on to keep him happy. Thank you.

Visited my mother who is very well cared for and happy. Staff were very helpful and accommodating as usual, not to mention friendly as well.

It was my mother-in-law's 94th birthday and a beautiful day. The staff were extremely helpful in supporting us to take her out into the gardens. A wheelchair was provided and a tray of tea (teapot, milk jugs, napkins etc.) brought down to us. It made the day special and enriched the birthday for all concerned.

Her room is kept clean and tidy, enjoyable food and mid-morning tea, afternoon tea and cake. Entertainment is there if you want to join in.

Staff were very welcoming and helpful at sign-in. My aunt was comfortable and happy in her room. Her birthday being acknowledged by everyone gave her pleasure. Our request to take her into the garden for tea and the cake my cousin had brought was enthusiastically received and the whole operation smoothly facilitated. A well-presented tea tray was brought out and my aunt chatted about memories and contributed to general conversation happily. The whole visit was very successful and a memorable family occasion.

After being here for nearly three years, we are still more than happy that my husband is having the best care and he is happy. On the odd occasion we've had a query, it has been dealt with promptly.

Overall, this home is excellent and it would take a lot to beat it, my mom is very settled and happy here.

My brother has been at Bryony House since Sept 2019. He is very contented with the way he is looked after and that as a vegetarian they have gone out of their way to meet his needs. As a visitor, I have always found the home to be clean and tidy and the staff most helpful, though as with most homes, they work very hard, because of staff shortages. This is a well-run home with activities for the residents to do throughout the week and has a cheery atmosphere. My brother loves the outdoors and takes full advantage of Bryony's beautiful and extensive garden, weather permitting. During Covid, we were able to talk with him over video calls, as the home was in lockdown and all residents were kept Covid-free. It is good to know that my brother is in a good and pleasant place, run by kind and caring staff.

I helped an old friend move into Bryony House, some nine years ago. Right from day one, he has received the very best of care. He is kept very clean at all times, nicely dressed and has more than enough of the well-cooked and well-presented food. Whilst he is not always ready to join in with all of the activities, the staff always make sure that he is comfortable. His room is always clean and tidy and the staff are always on hand if he needs them. The management and staff are always very welcoming and keep me informed of any relevant details. My friend, who is in his 90's, could not be in better hands and I would recommend this home to anyone.
