My mum stayed at The Spinney for a couple of months.
All of the staff, including manager, care staff and laundry lady have been genuinely kind and caring and making sure my mum got the extra support she needed.

Review from Cathy P (Friend of Resident) published on 14 April 2026 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
My friend and mum in law, a former palliative care worker, spent much of her last two years in The Spinney.
During that time she received excellent care, a custom-tailored diet as she was very particular about her food (oven chips with dinner meant she ate!) and made some very good friends.
It was a great relief to her, and us, that after being hospitalised with a bout of illness she was able to return 'home' to The Spinney for her last few days.

She nearly made it a extra full year on top of her original end of life prognosis. I believe that much of that extra time was due to the quality of the care she received and the company of the friends she made.

Overall Experience
I would like to say how surprised and happy I was to come to the spinney care home as I didn't know anything about it. The staff are wonderful, helpful and lovely. I was very reluctant when I come from hospital to the Spinney and I ]was very well looked after like at Spinney and the service was clean and food great. Staff was very helpful with my recovery and they make me happy at Spinney. My bedroom was lovely and clean. I can't fault the service.

Review from Beverley B (Niece of Resident) published on 13 December 2022 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
My aunt broke her hip and after a two-week hospital stay, needed care home convalescence, which was provided by Coventry City Council at The Spinney Care Home. The first impressions were fantastic and have remained so throughout her six-week stay. Showing and giving professionalism, caring, kind and clean. Should the need arise, I would definitely apply for future accommodation for my aunt, even if we have to pay. Ten out of ten.

Overall Experience
In an emergency, I had to be taken into care. I was unable to care for myself to the point of self-neglect. In five weeks the care has been excellent to the point of getting to what is normal. This is due to the encouragement and gentle care, masses of rest and a healthy weight.

Review from Jackie B (Daughter of Resident) published on 7 October 2020 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
My dad was a resident of The Spinney for over two years and was happy there and enjoyed a good relationship with a majority of the carers. He wasn't always the easiest person to get along with but he was treated with respect and information was shared with me to try and make things easier. There were some minor issues at times but they were dealt with professionally and resolved.

Review from Vanda (Daughter of Resident) published on 4 June 2020 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
My mother arrived at The Spinney just four days ago from hospital and in the most challenging health environment, we have ever known. I was immediately put at ease by the manager, who responded to my first email immediately and then sent a beautiful photo of my Mum. It was so reassuring to see her happy, clean and safe. When I delivered a suitcase of my mother’s belongings, I was met by a most professional care worker who kept to all requisite protocols at the door. I found the notice on the door of The Spinney explaining Covid restrictions reassuring too.
Since then all my questions have been answered and I am confident of the high quality of care my mother is receiving.

What a fantastic care home, with staff who go above and beyond the call of duty. One member of staff has not just provided amazing care for my father, but her support towards myself has been outstanding. The care home is set in beautiful surroundings and is very well maintained. An absolute pleasure to know my father is safe there.

I liked the set up of The Spinney, homely and warm. The staff were very kind, nothing was too much for them. My friend went for respite over Christmas. We felt welcome and liked the friendly atmosphere, meals, activities, especially his spiritual well being. He was ready for church every Sunday, well dressed and smart. Thanks to the manageress and others, you are superb at what you do.
