I have been massively impressed with the quality of care provided by The Stables. Staff are very well trained, kind and organised. I could not ask for better care for my father. The Stables is an exemplary care home, managed and run by a team of caring professionals. The standard of care that I have
seen is outstanding.

The Stables has to be the best in the area! Indeed it has to be one of the best in the whole of the country! As hard as I look, I cannot fault it. The ratio of staff to residents is excellent as are the staff themselves. As soon as one steps through the door, the ambience is one of home, calm and contentment.
A 10 out of 10 from me.

The Stables Care home, is an amazing place with the kindest and friendliest staff, I transferred my mum to the home recently from Great Yarmouth, and before doing so visited around 15 other homes in the local area but when we visited The stables it was clear straight away that it stood out from all
the rest, the family run home had such friendly staff and management and were so welcoming and as it only has 7 rooms the ration of carers to residents is great. The home is cosy and warm and the staff ensure they cater to everyone's needs and wants in foods. My mum has been there now a month and she has felt comfortable from day one and has settled in really quickly and the staff at the home has helped to make a very scary move to be as effortless as they could, knowing my mum is being looked after and cared for so well at the home really takes the pressure off. If anyone is looking for an amazing place to look after and care for a loved one The Stables offers continued 5*.

Having had to put both parents into residential care homes in the past four years, what I and my wife have found is that modern is not always best. This is very much a home from home, the residents are made to feel as if they are part of a family and this also goes for family when you visit. Nothing
is too much trouble for the staff and management. Not having eaten here myself, I am going by what my mother states and that is very good, almost as good as when Mum cooked at one in Hanley Swan. It is good value for money, kindness etc. Large and modern homes are more impersonal.

The Stables care home is a welcoming environment with individualised personal space having good social interaction.
They go out of their way to meet the nutritional needs of individuals while promoting dignity and respect of individuals meeting all healthcare and mental health needs with full support
with personal care.
This is fulfilled by the enthusiastic owners who have created this lovely home-from-home environment brought together with a carefully picked care manager and the team of carers who all seem to work together seamlessly and with the same passion and values as the owners.
It's all down to the above that has made the transition for my mother from living independently to living in a care home go so smoothly for her and us the family, far better than our wildest expectations.

The excellent care my husband is receiving at The Stables Care Home has made a very positive difference in a difficult time when losing his independence. The Stables is a very comfortable and welcoming environment/home to live in. The staff are very professional with a warm, kind, caring attitude. They
are very supportive of residents' individual needs and interests, as well as developing good communication and working relationships with residents' family and friends.

My uncle receives excellent care at The Stables - they know him well and treat him with dignity and I believe they genuinely enjoy him as a person, as well as care for him. They are always open to helping accommodate family visits and give a warm welcome when we arrive. The staff arrange for us to have
space away from my uncle's room - in the conservatory - which enables us to have some privacy and enjoy time with him. We are grateful for their care of my uncle.

Since Mum's first entry into The Stables she has been treated with kindness, respect, and love from the management and staff. Her private bedroom is well-appointed and kept spotless by the staff.
Being safe in the knowledge that Mum is being well looked after has taken a big weight off my shoulders.

When I first learned that my sister was going into a care home, I was terrified but when she was moved to The Stables Care Home I couldn't have wished for a better place for her. Everything about it is first-class which puts my mind a bit more at rest. The staff are excellent in all aspects of their
job caring, patient, loving and understanding. Always there with understanding with relatives and visitors, with a smile and a warm welcome. I couldn't wish for my sister to be cared for at this awful time by any other people. Doing anything and being there for my sister when I can't or able to. I thank them all from the bottom of my heart and hope and pray my sister is always looked after at The Stables as there isn't anywhere else I would like her to be. Thank you all.

Lovely care home whom provide exceptional care, nothing is too much trouble we felt very happy that we could leave mum for respite care in the knowledge that she would be very well looked after. From the managers down to the care assistants the level of care that mum received was just wonderful, the
staff are very supportive and would make time to have a chat and put your mind at rest. We have no worries about mum having a place at The Stables hopefully in the near future.

Mum went into The Stables care home for a two week respite break. Whilst in there the management/staff/carers involved us all as a family and we were always made to feel very welcome and put at ease whilst mum was in their care. It's a lovely professional family run home and only having seven rooms
each resident is treated with care and kindness. Everyone that visited mum commented on how well she looked and was being well looked after and how the staff treated the other residents and commented on what a lovely place The Stables is. Will have no hesitation in using The Stables again or recommending it to others. Excellent Thank you!

A wonderful care home that supported Mum and us from day one. The staff are exceptional and all are fantastic. They have helped Mum settle in so quickly and I can already see a dramatic improvement in Mum. The home itself is a home from home, cosy and safe, and Mum settled within just two weeks. She
feels happy, safe and enjoys everybody's company. The care standards are high and consistent. Brilliant team. Thank you.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.896)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.896) out of 10 for The Stables is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.896 for The Stables is calculated as follows: ( (138 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 154 Ratings = 4.896

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Stables is based on 13 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 7 registered maximum number of service users is 1.4, which has been reached with 13 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
