My mother was in the home from April 2022 till she passed away in December 2022. You could not wish for any more love and care that all the staff gave to her. Nothing was too much trouble if you asked them to do anything for her. She really settled at the home, and the home gave a warm and caring feel.
Thank you for your lovely review - your amazing feedback will be passed on to the Seale Pastures team.
My mum has been a resident for over three years, the staff have been really good, cannot fault them. It has improved a lot just lately and I can’t thank them enough for looking after her, they are all very friendly and nice.

Mum had to come for respite for two weeks. What can I say, the staff go above and beyond, and my mum was looked after. The staff work very hard and are on the go at all times, but their time and care are excellent. Thank you to all staff who have taken care of my mum these past two weeks.

My father had to come into the home for respite whilst my mum had an operation. He was very nervous as he had never been in a care home before and has Huntington's and Lewy Body Dementia. All the staff have been amazing at settling him in and making him welcome and comfortable. The care he has received has been second to none, and I cannot thank the staff enough. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff, and I can not recommend the home enough.

My mother initially went into Seale Pastures House for an assessment after spending 5 weeks in hospital. My mum had a fall and also has vascular dementia. All of her life she had said she would 'never' go to a Care Home, so I was very nervous about how she would react to spending time there. I needn't have worried. From the very beginning, the staff made her very welcome and treated her with the utmost dignity. She was deemed to need 24 hour care and is now living at Seale Pastures House and I have to say is thriving. She is happy, relaxed and has already made several friends. Everything about Seale Pastures House is 5 star, from the amazing staff to the lovely food and cleanliness. It always feels fresh and clean and all the staff really pay attention to each resident's needs and care. They have all now been trained to administer my mum's insulin too. Mum is happy and I'm happy.

Our mum has been a resident here for almost 2-weeks. From the moment she arrived, she was made to feel welcome and was immediately involved in the denim for dementia cake decorating activity. She was a little reluctant to be left, but my sister called the home later, and Mum had settled in well and was really happy. After a recent visit yesterday, she'd had her nails painted and was very happy and chatty. Thank you to you all for taking care of our precious mum.
Thank you for your lovely review. We will pass on your kind words to our Seale Pastures care team.

excellent with the standard of care. They are very friendly and polite. My mum has settled very well. The atmosphere there is home from home. They keep me well informed as to medical issues with Mum and also her general wellbeing. You are always made welcome and feel you are involved with everything. I just can't thank them enough.
Thank you for your lovely review - your positive feedback is fantastic to hear and will be passed on to our Seale Pastures team.
I can’t praise all the team at Seale Pastures House enough for all her help, knowledge and persistence in sorting out my cousin after being discharged too soon from the hospital. It is much appreciated.

Thank you for your kind words and support, which I will pass on to our care team - we are more than happy to help!
I'm absolutely shocked at the difference in my nan since being a resident here for only one week. Eating and drinking well, socialising with others, which she hasn't done in such a long time! The managers and staff are absolutely phenomenal and are working wonders with her.

The staff have always been very caring, respectful and welcoming. Over the recent few weeks, I have seen Seale Pastures improve up to another level in many ways. One of these is that the residents are engaged in many activities, including games and music, gardening and pampering sessions - (my mum loves having her nails painted). All of this, and more, in a place with a happy, welcoming atmosphere where staff and residents have smiling faces. If staff and residents are happy, then so am I.
Thank you; you are all wonderful! Onwards and upwards.
Thank you for your lovely review - your positive words and support are fantastic to receive. I will pass your wonderful feedback to our Seale Pastures team.
This home is just recruiting its eighth manager and fourth administrator in five years! There also seems to be more agency staff than employees. I've had reason to make several complaints.

All the staff are lovely and very caring. The residents are treated with respect and dignity. Keep up the good work.

We can't thank the staff at Seale Pastures enough for looking after my mother, who was a reluctant resident at first. With respect, care, patience and a happy atmosphere, she soon came to call it home. Her final days were made so much easier by the understanding staff, especially with family members coming and going on a regular basis. The family thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

My mother enjoyed three years of loving care and attention during her stay at Seale Pastures, during the final days of her life the team was exemplary in looking after and easing her through. I cannot speak highly enough of the attention to detail and thought that was ever-present including the parties for her 101st, 102nd and 103rd Birthdays, she was always warm, comfortable and made to feel at home - thank you.
My experience of Seal Pastures is generally good, but I do feel at times they seem to be understaffed. Also, I would like to see a more hands-on approach with the residents as they spend many hours with no conversation at all.

Further to our meeting at Seale Pastures House where your concerns were all addressed with the Home Manager we understand that you are more than happy with the care that we are providing. If you do need to speak to the Home Manager again about anything at all, please do not hesitate to contact her.
Many thanks.
Fantastic.

Wonderful staff, home from home atmosphere. My mum has only recently moved in but already we have seen her do a range of stimulating activities. Thank you Seale Pastures.

A beautiful residential care home in a rural setting. Wonderful garden to sit in with a shop and hairdressers. The staff are genuine people, caring for the older generation, with each individuals best interests at heart. My mum was transformed in three weeks respite and came home happier and healthier. Seale is a clean, attractive,'homely' home, great cooking and not in anyway austere or intimidating.
