Chestnut House

I love it here at Chestnut House. We get treated like family.

When I first arrived I was terrified I would not fit in but the staff have been amazing and made me feel so welcome and at ease. There is not a bad word I can honestly say about Chestnut House, they should be commended for the work they do for people like myself with mental health. Thank you to all the staff for being there and just listening, you truly are brilliant.

Very pleasant staff. Good banter.

I am getting used to my stay.

My time here at Chestnut has been excellent. I think the staff are excellent. I think they do a very good job. The care they give us is the best. We get good meals, we are definitely well looked after. There are some residents who I think shouldn't be here because of the seriousness of their behaviour, but overall Chestnut House is a very good home.

I am the latest resident. July 2020 I was discharged from a Local Low Secure Unit where I felt almost abused but now, thank the Lord that I was sent to Chestnut House. I wake up every morning and pinch myself, just in case I am dreaming. I live in one of the ground floor, self-contained apartments with patio doors opening on to the private garden (in this weather it feels just like a Spanish holiday apartment). In under a month, I am already starting to feel human again which is all down to the superb environment and support, even during all the challenges of Covid. Everything is very well maintained, with a dedicated maintenance team. Every member of staff is professional in their approach whilst being approachable, friendly and supportive. The manager is beautiful on the inside as well as the out, however, the real star of the show is Jessica. (The love of my life, athletic, beautiful kisser, beautiful eyes and four legs). The residents also make you feel very welcome.

The team, especially at present, he has praised and appreciated their support.

Staff at Chestnut House are very friendly and go above and beyond. They care and look after our son extremely well and he is the happiest he has ever been since residing there, with a fantastic manager at the helm.

I came here as an emergency placement on respite, and became a full time service user and supported in all aspects of daily living to enable me to now be a tenant with minimal support from staff. I have improved a hell of a lot as I could not look after myself safely.

It's really good they make the home really homely, and the staff are polite sometimes. The staff have organised the colour run and the UB40 concert at the Lincoln castle. The staff helped me do a hair and beauty course.

Since living her and I feel still in one piece. My parents have peace of mind. Meals are good and so are the staff.
