  • Sutton Manor Residential Home, Sutton-in-Ashfield
Sutton Manor Residential Home is a lovely welcoming home well suited to the needs of forty-five residents, with some dual occupancy rooms also available.

Carers look to maintain a good social atmosphere while encouraging residents in the pursuit of an active and fulfilling lifestyle, with all dietary needs met and evening events that relatives and loved ones can join in with. The activities coordinator offers a wide programme ranging from gardening either outdoors or in the greenhouse, knitting, sewing, craft, games and movement to music. Should residents require a little pampering, there is a hairdressers and chiropodist.

Pets are welcome in the home. Current pets include Snowy & Lilly the rabbits.

Shorter respite care requirements are also handled by skilled carers, while Sutton Manor is an excellent environment in which to feel at home throughout a retirement.

My aunty has been looked after really well and recuperated well. She's been looked after with respect & dignity. All the staff are very friendly & helpful & have good banter with the residents. She likes it so much that part of her doesn't want to go home. The actual building & outside decking area
is lovely, clean & modern.

Review from C B (Daughter of Resident) published on 4 July 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Mum spent 8 weeks at Sutton Manor, whilst she recovered from surgery. We, as a family had no experience of Care Homes, so our expectations were modelled on what we thought they were like.
We were all blown away with the care, consideration and compassion that was shown to my mum. She had a great
time, and loved her time there. The food was great, and as my mum is a fussy eater, she asked them to cook different meals for her. This was done without hesitation. All the staff went the extra mile daily, nothing was too much trouble, they work so hard. One particular staff member encouraged mum to join in the activities, she loved it, and her confidence grew to the point she has come home a different person.
I can highly recommend Sutton Manor to anyone, whether it's for long term or short term stays. It's a happy Care Home, where staff clearly adore the residents and want the best for them. I hope my Mum will be able to go back to stay for respite in the near future.

Enjoy all the care and social side of life here. Mum has made an effort to mix and join in all the activities and has made her feel happy and give her some focus and joy. You have given my mum, good positive outlook and more choices. Her meals have been enjoyed and she's been encouraged to eat more!
Thank you and all our love x

I am really happy with the way my friend is cared for here. She is far more alert and engaged and now moves around without mobility and whilst in the home. The atmosphere is friendly and helpful. Entertainment throughout the day is great and my friend freely joins in. I wouldn't have my friend anywhere
else. Thank you to all the staff.

Review from Steven S (Son of Resident) published on 25 April 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
We've seen such a positive change to dad's demeanour since he moved into Sutton manor. Despite not being able to see & being hard of hearing he has quickly fitted in to the social life of the home. He joins in & enjoys most of the activities arranged with a bit of help & loves a good sing song. Dad
looks well looked after & eats well.
There are a couple of things would make life even better for dad; firstly, if more carers could learn how to attach his prosthetic leg effectively (it is difficult), this would give him more confidence & secondly ensuring that dads skin is thoroughly creamed every day to combat his dry skin.
Notwithstanding these comments, we are happy & more importantly dad is happy in the home.
Reply from Claire Sharpe, Partner at Sutton Manor Residential Home

Firstly may I thank you for such a positive review. We are going to look into a training course on prosthetics to be able to improve our care. Thank you for your suggestion.

On arriving at the care home, I couldn't even walk more than a few steps- they had encouraged me to do better which I have. The staff have been very helpful and kind. The entertainment during the day cheerful and happy led by a pleasant gentleman who must have an active mind to come up with some of
the things he gets us to do.

My father has been with you for only 4 weeks for respite care after a hospital visit. I have witnessed nothing but total care and compassion for my father at all times. I would have no hesitation in recommending your home to anyone.
You have all been superb, thank you.

Review from Deb W (Daughter of Resident) published on 28 January 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum was transferred to Sutton Manor straight from hospital for rehabilitation after having a hip replacement operation. From the moment that Mum arrived, she was welcomed really warmly into the Sutton Manor family and so was I and my brothers. We were always greeted by name, which was much appreciated
and invited to join in with the many activities, if we were around. The activities were very varied and good fun. The carers were compassionate and very hardworking. The manager and deputy manager always made time for a chat and always did their very best to respond to any requests, despite their demanding workloads. The rehabilitation co-ordinator was very efficient, supportive and encouraging. We knew she shared our goals. The meals were all home cooked and looked delicious.
I would certainly recommend Sutton Manor and applaud the leadership team for creating such a caring and stimulating place for their residents. We are very grateful to everyone who works there.

This is her second respite care visit. I would not take her anywhere else. She loves it here—the company, the care, the stimulation, the food, and her room. I have total confidence in this care placement.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.955)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.955) out of 10 for Sutton Manor Residential Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 43 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 43 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.955 for Sutton Manor Residential Home is calculated as follows: ( (485 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 507 Ratings = 4.955
  2. 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 Sutton Manor Residential Home is based on 43 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 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
    2. 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 45 registered maximum number of service users is 9, which has been reached with 43 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
