Overall Experience
After 2 years at Springwood House my 103 year old mother has sadly passed away.
My everlasting thanks go to the wonderful staff there who gave her the very best care possible. In her early days there, Mum was able to enjoy the beautiful grounds looking down the Amber Valley and feel so grateful that she was in such a cosy, warm room.
Management and carers liaised with me
When toiletries etc. needed to be ordered online as I was not local to Derbyshire.
I will never forget the Vintage singer who had been requested to sing at Mum's last

Birthday and the lovely cake baked by the kitchen staff.

Springwood worked very well for dad. He was not very easy in his later months, but they displayed great patience and understanding. It's a lovely setting with a nice garden, visiting hours were flexible and the staff were good. I am glad dad spent his final year there.

Springwood House were fantastic at supporting and looking after my grandparents during their twilight years. They gave them a wonderful final chapter which saw them embrace each day and live to the fullest. We took great comfort in knowing they were so well cared for and will be forever grateful for the teams hardwork and dedication.

It has such a lovely and homely feel with warm and caring staff offering personalised care.

Overall Experience

My Dad was a part of the Springwood family until his peaceful passing in May. The staff at Springwood are caring, compassionate, professional and supportive of all residents and their families & friends. Activities on offer are frequent and varied if residents wish to join them. The food is excellent. Having visited most days, I was very happy with the care Dad received throughout his stay and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Springwood. Our family will always be grateful for the care and support we all received from the whole Springwood team when Dad passed away earlier this year.

Overall Experience

My mother has been a resident at Springwood House for 18 months, and I have been a regular visitor. From the first days of her residency, I have been so impressed by the professionalism and friendliness of the management and staff. She is so well looked after, and we appreciate how the staff have got to know her and support her despite her awkwardness at times. Springwood is an excellent care home. I am so glad that they were able to find a place for my mother.

The staff at Springwood House are all very kind and caring and the support my husband has received to help him settle in to living in a care home has been fantastic. I couldn't have picked a better place for him, as I couldn't have put him anywhere I wouldn't want to stay myself.

Review from Jill W (Daughter of Resident) published on 27 August 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My mother was looked after in the home for 8 months until she died. The staff were compassionate and cheerful in looking after her, despite her sometimes being stubborn and appearing to be unappreciative in the early months. For the last week of her life they were exceptionally kind, attentive and showed my sister and myself great care and support too. Thanks to their care, Mum died peacefully and comfortably and because we were kept informed throughout, we were able to have a last visit with Mum before she died, which meant so much to us.

I can't thank the staff enough for looking after us all and being so supportive when we most needed it....and it's so comforting knowing that Mum couldn't have been in a better place during her difficult final months.

Overall Experience
As a family, I feel that we are receiving an exceptional experience at Springwood House. The activities are stimulating and help to keep my parents physically and mentally active as they get older. The warmth and professionalism of all the staff is wonderful. They treat each resident with great respect, dignity and care. The owners of Springwood House continually go above and beyond to meet the needs of the families they take care of. I cannot recommend Springwood House more highly to anyone! The attention, care and trust people receive is second to none and I trust them implicitly with taking care of my own parents so well.

It's a home-from-home!

Review from Maria B (Daughter of Resident) published on 25 June 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
During 2021, I was faced with the dilemma of trying to find the right home for my 93-year-old mum, which was daunting, particularly when Covid was still around! I had visited many homes within Derbyshire, but each one I was disillusioned to find the right one for Mum, as I said that my mum wouldn't be going anywhere where I wouldn't go myself. When I visited Springwood Care Home and was greeted by the owners/directors, who are the third generation family running this beautiful home, I knew I had found the ideal place for Mum!
My mum resided there for two years, and the management and staff were amazing. Nothing too much trouble, always caring, kind and willing to help in every way.
The many varied activities that they organised were amazing; exercise classes, cooking, gardening, singing, and poetry. The food was all home cooked and delicious.

My mum loved it there; she loved all the staff and particularly enjoyed the rapport with the boys serving tea. A first-class home.

Review from Rhiannon R (Daughter of Resident) published on 16 March 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Springwood House is a wonderful home for the residents. My mum moved in a year ago this week and loves it. It’s not a big home, and it has a lovely family feel. The owners and staff care so well for the residents that it feels more like a country retreat! It’s situated in wonderful grounds with fantastic views, and the garden is perfect for the residents to enjoy - they also do a little gardening and growing of plants with the staff. There are daily activities on offer ranging from chair yoga, baking, crafts, and quizzes, right up to concerts and visits from children from local schools to some rather interesting creatures that sometimes visit to cuddle.
The rooms are lovely with individual characters, and the food is cooked in-house from scratch every day (always wish I could stay as it smells so good).

Great care is taken of all residents health-wise, which has been wonderful in these difficult times. I would strongly recommend Springwood House to anyone looking for a home for their loved ones.

I cannot compliment this team enough. they look after our grandmother so beautifully. I was so stressed every day she was living at home because she wasn’t safe or healthy, but within two weeks of her moving into Springwood, she was happier and healthier than she had been in years. The girls that run Springwood are wonderful and are starting to feel like a part of our family. I would recommend Springwood to absolutely anyone.

Overall Experience
The main, out of many, best thing about Springwood House is its management and carers. They are all knowledgeable, well-trained, caring, kind, and lovely. I’ve yet to find a below-par, or even just average one.
They look after/ care for the residents so well, so thoughtfully and so kindly.

And this is in spite of how phenomenally difficult this line of work has been since March 2020.

Overall Experience

As a working GP, this is the best home I have ever visited - we were so lucky to find it for our mother. It is exceptional - like an old country house hotel with wrap-around care. She had her own furniture and possessions, so her room felt like a capsule of her own home. The food is top-notch on home cooking. The care is respectful and dignified. The owners and staff became ours and our mother's friends. Ultimately, our mother had a very dignified death. She could not have been supported and looked after better.
