I visit my mother in law twice a week and she is always clean and well groomed. I cant praise the staff enough for managing to keep our loved ones cool and comfortable during this extremely hot weather. The summer fete was wonderful, and a great success. Praise again to the management and staff for their hard work and dedication. The home is very clean and 'homely' and feels like a community - nothing at all like I imagined a care home to be. Its lovely to see her taking part in the activities. She's had a few minor issues (health) which have been dealt with promptly. well done Seale Pastures!
Thank you for your wonderful review and kind words about our team, these will be shared with all our Seale Pastures House Colleagues.
All staff treat visitors with respect. We are made welcome on every visit. A lot of care is put on all the residents.

Excellent communication about my mum's care, always keep you updated. Mum is treated with care and compassion, and her care is proactive as her needs have changed. Her room is exceptional, clean and tidy, with appropriate facilities. Food variety is great, catering for a smaller appetite. Craft activities are many and varied, which enjoyed by my mum. Mum took a while to settle, but she has always felt safe and secure.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback, we are delighted to hear that your mum feels safe, secure, and well cared for. It's reassuring to know our team's communication, compassionate approach, engaging activities, and attention to her changing needs have made a positive difference. Your kind words mean so much to us, and will be shared with our team at Seale Pastures House.
Our mum recently moved into the care home. At the time she was extremely nervous and didn't want to go. However she settled in immediately. She feels very safe in here and finds all the staff caring and compassionate. Our mum always speaks extremely highly about the food and now looks forward to...
As a family we feel she is looked after well, is always clean and tidy. The bedroom is always clean and tidy.

My mother was finally moved to Seale Pastures Acresford in May 2026 following a short period in another home in Leics. What a breath of fresh air it has been for me and my sister to visit her in Seale Pastures. It is a relaxing environment for both residents and visitors. The staff are very attentive and approachable. The home itself and my mum's room are very clean, and so far mum's laundry have been freshly cleaned and haven't yet gone missing. Keep up the good work Seale Pastures

Room is good + spacious with ensuite toilet + sink.
Mother has been settled in very well & we can already see good improvement in mothers health + wellbeing, as it's only been 6 weeks. The team @Seale are very nice, mother is well supported by all. Overall a great start to what was a stressful period in all our families lives.
I have no doubt at this time mother will thrive at Seale pastures.

After visiting several homes, we chose Seale Pastures House in Acresford. The bright environment, comfortable en-suite rooms and outdoor areas immediately stood out.
From the moment Mum arrived, the staff helped her settle in with patience, kindness and genuine care. The carers, nursing staff and management team took time to understand her needs and have supported her with dignity and respect throughout.
In just five weeks, Mum's wellbeing has improved significantly. She has regained weight, her confidence has grown and she has made new friends.
Most importantly, Mum feels safe, happy and cared for. After completing her D2A placement, she chose to remain at Seale Pastures House as her permanent home. That says everything about how comfortable and supported she feels there.
We would highly recommend.

My mum was admitted in February because the family were unable to keep her safe in her home due to dementia. Mum was very resistant at first. The manager and senior staff put us all at ease from the start, reassuring us that we made the best choice for Mum's safety. Mum has settled in incredibly well. She always looks clean and well groomed. She's putting on weight each week and looks a picture of physical health. Mum has made friends and enjoys her food, and takes part in activities. Mum being in Seale Pastures House has enabled us to sleep at night with the knowledge that she is safe and well looked after, thanks to all of the carers!
Mum has been a resident for nearly 3 years now. She has mobility issues and worsening dementia. The staff are caring and patient with her and deal admirably with her over changing needs.

Always kept informed about Ivy. Staff are 1st class and go the extra mile to make sure Ivy is well looked after. The one little thing is I would like Ivy to have some help in organising her clothes for the following day. Ivy is a early riser and sometimes puts the wrong type of clothes on in the morning before she is taken down to breakfast. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for your wonderful review and 5-star scores for Seale Pastures, we will certainly ask the team to speak to you about your request .
Excellent care home staff brilliant very caring and family oriented would highly recommend.

Mum is very well cared for. She is generally well presented and all staff treat her with a friendly, caring manner. When there is an issue I am contacted and consulted about the best approach to be taken as necessary. The staff go above and beyond to offer a happy and joyful approach to Christmas with an early Christmas dinner with family and Christmas tea party with entertainment. My only concern is the lack of appropriate day to day activity for my mum who has limited vision and lack of mobility- word searches and crafts are inappropriate for her.

Mum was discharged to Seale Pastures after a few weeks in hospital as she had been neglecting to care for herself due to her dementia. It was a confusing time but the staff were wonderful, very caring and helped her to settle in really quickly. There was always activities to engage with and the staff took time to chat with the residents and make them feel at home. They encouraged her to shower, get her hair done and change her clothes and she did put on a little weight, she was much calmer and contented after just a few days. The home is clean and warm and she had a nice room with its own WC. The food was good (we attended a family Xmas dinner, which was a lovely occasion). There were plenty of drinks and snacks between meals too. Staff always answered my questions as to how she was and what she had been doing and rang me if there were any issues. I was very happy with the care Mum received and my only reason for moving her was due to the distance I had to travel to visit.
The staff at Seale are all so friendly and welcoming. My daughters, husband and brother all feel very comfortable when visiting.

The staff at Seale are all so friendly and welcoming. My daughters, husband and brother all feel very comfortable when visiting.
Liaison is great and I feel fully informed regarding Mum's welfare. I know that Mum feels that Seale is her home now and as we are only 10 mins away we can visit often.
I am very thankful that we found Seale (after visiting a number of placements) Mum's room is lovely, nicely decorated and spacious.
But it is the staff, carers, cleaners, kitchen staff and admin that make Seale such a lovely care home with such a warm, friendly atmosphere.
Thank you for such a lovely review for both our home and wonderful Seale Pastures House team. Your fantastic 5-star review, positive feedback and kind words will be shared with all our Colleagues.
