Moat House has provided the safe and nurturing environment that my aunty needs. She moved in needing a bucketful of TLC and this is what she has received. It can be difficult to balance the emotional and physical support that a new resident needs and Moat House staff have achieved this.

Reply from Maree Leadbeater, Marketing Manager at Moat House Care Home

Thank you so much for your kind words. We're delighted to hear that your aunty has found the care, compassion, and support she needed at Moat House. It's a privilege to be part of her journey, and we'll be sure to share your lovely feedback with the whole team.

Really felt I needed to submit a review after visiting a friends relative in the last week.
I have to say I was completely bowled over when entering Moat House. I felt I was in a luxury Hotel, the quality, style and ambience was second to none. It really does have the wow factor. I was greeted by
a professional reception/ Team who booked me in for my visit.
I then went through the corridor to find my friends relative and was able to see some of the rooms en route which were spacious, bright and immaculate.
I was able to wander around the kitchen garden, with tables, sitting areas and is clearly tended and loved.
It was an enjoyable and refreshing visit to be in this lovely place.
Hats off to the team who were friendly and professional.

Having to place my dad into respite care was one of the most difficult decisions I've had to make, especially given how poorly he has been. However, from the very beginning, the team at Moat house have made an incredibly hard situation so much easier to bear.
Every member of staff we've encountered
has been nothing short of wonderful-caring, compassionate, and genuinely dedicated to ensuring my father's needs are fully met. They've taken the time to understand him not just as a patient, but as a person. His medical and personal care have been handled with professionalism and real kindness, which has given us such a relief.
What has truly stood out, though, is the way they've supported him socially as well. They've made sure he stays engaged and connected, and that he never feels isolated or left out. That kind of attention to emotional and social wellbeing is something you can't put a price on.
I'm deeply grateful to everyone at Moat House for the respect, dignity shown to my Father

Reply from Maree Leadbeater, Marketing Manager at Moat House Care Home

Thank you so much for your heartfelt review. We understand how difficult it can be to make the decision to place a loved one in care, and we're truly honoured that you entrusted us with your father's wellbeing. It means the world to us to hear that our team's compassion, professionalism, and dedication have made a difference during such a challenging time. We're especially pleased to know that he feels supported not only medically but also socially and emotionally - that's exactly the kind of care we strive to provide every day. Your kind words will be shared with the whole team at Moat House - thank you again for taking the time to share your experience.

Moat House are wonderful. They are very caring and helpful. Two staff members stand out in particular. I cannot thank the staff enough for making a difficult, emotional decision to trust care to strangers.
The open air spaces with the garden and aviary make Moat House more like a park than a care home.
I would definitely recommend Moat House if you have to make this difficult decision.

Reply from Maree Leadbeater, Marketing Manager at Moat House Care Home

Thank you so much for your kind words and thoughtful review. We're truly touched that you felt supported during such an emotional decision, and we're so glad our team could help make the transition a little easier. It means a lot to hear that our garden and aviary brought comfort too - we'll be sure to pass your lovely feedback on to the team!

We were looking for a care home for our mum who was relocating from North Devon and from the moment that my sister and I walked into the Moat House, we knew this was the place for mum. As we were shown around all the residents we saw were greeted by name with a "hello" and "how are you" and were treated
with respect. We were very lucky that mum actually wanted to be in a care home to be looked after, and have company. All the staff are fantastic, positive, caring and encouraging. With so many activities including outings mums days are full and happy. Mum has compared the Moat House with a warners hotel which is where she will be happily spending the rest of her days! Thank you all.

Most of the staff are very good with my mum but on occasions, she has looked dishevelled, hair not brushed and her fingernails dirty. I wonder then whether she's had a wash, shower, etc. Also, her room on occasion has looked unclean stains on the carpet including urine on one occasion. Also, her commode
was soiled on toilet seat. Also mum is paying a lot of money, it should be better.

Overall my experience has been disappointing. My wife comes home from seeing her mum and she has had to complain to staff and management. Moat Hours seems to be reactive as opposed to proactive when her mum first went into the home 2 years ago.
In December, she complained about the tiredness (lack
of) of her room, the stained carpet and the smell of urine (twice). When you complain something is done. There is a noticeable lack of staff compared to 2 years ago.

My dad (an amputee) has been a Moat House resident for 18 months now. His needs can be complex and I feel the staff have taken the time to get to know him and deal with his care requirements with care and compassion, he has good banter with them and It really is home from home for him. nicely decorated,
a delicious daily menu ( we say 5 stars all-inclusive) and the most fabulous activities team organising daily activities and entertainment. I visit most days and always walk away knowing he is in the best place for him. Lucky to have the moat house on our doorstep.

My dad lived in Moat House for six years and sadly passed away in March last year. He liked his own company and was very happy to stay in his room reading his daily newspaper, listening to his radio and watching TV. The staff at Moat House respected his decision and bought his meals to his room and
kept him regularly supplied with cups of coffee! Dad didn't really want to move into a care home, but he was impressed with Moat House and we both felt all his needs were met, he received the best care and more than anything he was treated as an individual.

Management was very accommodating during the period that my husband was there for respite following a stay in hospital allowing me to increase the length of time he was there without fuss. The staff are all friendly and treat the residents with dignity even at difficult times. My husband has Parkinsons
which can be a roller coaster illness but staff were always patient even when he had an off day. Management always available which was a plus.

Excellent talk by three members who shared kit, footballs, book etc - football going back to post WW2. Very informative and entertaining especially as a former player's wife of 97 years old was present plus a resident who has supported them for 70 years. Very informative, lots of fun especially the
anecdotes of a former player. A Slideshow brought back happy memories of the football care in the community.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.755)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.755) out of 10 for Moat House Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 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 4.755 for Moat House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (256 Excellents x 5) + (32 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 306 Ratings = 4.755

  • 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 Moat House Care Home is based on 24 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 101 registered maximum number of service users is 20.2, which has been reached with 24 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.
