Review from Debrorah H (Mother of Resident) published on 12 June 2026 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
My son has been staying at Tamar House on respite at weekends for a year and a half. I am a single parent and need a break from my caring role. The residents and the staff have been fabulous in looking after my son. I would recomend Tamar House to anyone its a great home.

Review from Jenny W (Sister of Resident) published on 19 May 2026 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
I cannot praise the management and staff for the dedication and care they gave my brother throughout the past five years. Unfortunately he has now passed away, but was cared for at Tamar untill he passed away. He was cared for as an individual and this gave his family so much comfort. Not only did they support him, but also myself and family. Thank you once again everyone for your kindness and care.

Overall Experience
The only thing I would like to bring up is my own opinion, there should be more than one staff on at night.

Review from K G (Aunt of Resident) published on 8 April 2024 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
I have found the staff and manager to be very professional and 1st class to the service user.
My nephew has gained confidence and learned to be more independent since he came to the home, I couldn't wish for a better place for my nephew. Staff are very friendly and approachable. First class to this home and staff.
