Ashlands Residential Care Home

My father just couldn't live at home any more. I called Ashlands and they had him within 4 hours of my initial phone call. I'm incredibly grateful for their care and efficiency. They seem to exactly understand what we were going through. Since then I've seen Dad settle into his surroundings. He doesn't find it easy being away from home and his wife (my mother) but everyone seems SO kind and gentle. Thank you.

Star team!! My life long pal is now a resident, & he is well looked after! Lovely homecooked meals, lots of care at his beck & call!! The rest of the residents seem well looked after, the only downside I can possibly mention is not much car parking space when you call at a busy period, but, plenty of street parking nearby!!

My aunt went into this care home after suffering a stroke in Dec 2025. Because of her stroke she has been left unable to use the left side of her body so her care needs couldn't be met at home. Since the very first phone call with the home to discuss her needs everything has been done in a fantastic caring way. The managers and all staff have made us feel very welcome and all her needs are being met in a kind and respectful way. She is now making friends and is enjoying all the activities that are put on for her. I personally feel so much better and less stressed knowing that my aunt has 24 hour support. The home has good security for the residents, a signing in and out book so they know who is visiting, is clean and the gardens are well kept. They have notice boards with information for you to read and are available for you to ask any questions that you may have. Overall I recommend this care home, both myself and my aunt are happy that she is here.

My husband moved to Ashlands recently for respite following a crisis. I phoned Ashlands as it is new and has a good rating, and was immediately impressed by the manager. She obviously cares about the residents and, where possible, enables them to live as they want while being honest about what is possible. Importantly, she confirmed to me that where possible, they will keep residents to end of life if at all possible. The staff are polite and calm, helpful, and caring to residents and visitors. The rooms are light, and residents have a choice of where they sit as there are 4 dining areas. The food is plentiful and looks appetising. Requests are responded to promptly where possible.

Great nursing home kind and considerate staff nothing to much trouble safe and secure. For my dad who has got dementia they have gone above and beyond to help him with his needs. It's not just a business they really do care about the residents.

From the first moment my mum entered Ashlands Care Home, she was immediately made to feel completely at home. Her room is clean, cosy and fitted with everything she could possibly need. Mum was welcomed with great enthusiasm by all staff and made to feel part of the family immediately, she loved it. The dedication and attention to detail by all staff is outstanding, and they are all committed to ensuring the happiness and wellbeing of the residents.

My Mother has been with Ashlands for two weeks respite. I found the home to be clean and comfortable. My requests were followed resulting in a positive stay for my Mother. Meal choices were good with drinks and snacks readily available. Staff were polite and friendly across all areas. Thank you for peace of mind.

My wife has been a resident of Ashlands Care Home for the past four years; she has dementia. The care she receives is excellent. I do feel that since the new management team has been in place, the care she receives has gone up another level. All the staff are pleasant and caring and do an excellent job. She is always clean, and the meals are excellent. I am kept informed of any issues that arrive.

The new manager has made a lot of improvements over the last few months. More robust procedures as required by the CQC, staff training is up to date. A big bonus is the recruitment of an activity coordinator who is encouraging the residents to get involved. Mum seems happy and well looked after by the care staff.

Couldn't wish for a better place for our mam to stay.

Mum has been a resident for over four years and the care & understanding of all the staff is second to none. I have seen a great deal of improvements over the years which is continuing both in the structure of the home and the care provided. The home is clean and any issues are dealt with in a timely manner. The food is of a very high standard with choices given at each meal time. Daily activities are continuing to improve. Mum being a resident in the home means that I can rest assured that she is safe & being well looked after.

I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Ashland's to others wanting a care home for their loved ones.
