My Mother in law needed respite care after having a fall at home after being discharged from hospital. We looked around a few local care homes and was impressed with Dryclough. My MIL settled in fairly quickly and made a few friends which she would be sitting and chatting with on all my visits which was so nice to see, as she was starting to isolate herself. The staff are lovely, nothing is to much trouble and really supported my MIL in getting back on her feet and helping bring her confidence back. My MIL is now back at home, but already planning her next stay when we go on holiday in a few months.
Thank you for taking the time to publish your very kind review it is very much appreciated.

We moved Grandad into Dryclough Manor after Gran passed away and he was struggling at home alone even with a care package. We knew this was the perfect place for him as soon as we viewed the home. He loves the activities and there is something going on everyday. There is so much choice at meal times and I'm certain he has gained a few well deserved lb's. We would like to thank each and every one of you for the care and compassion shown to our Grandad after the loss of his beloved wife. It's rewarding to see him happy again.
Thank you for taking the time to write such a kind review. Your Grandad has settled in well and has made lots of friends which is so lovely to see.

If I could give more than 5stars I would, The care my dad received was amazing I could not fault the staff at all, any information I needed to know i was informed straight away.

Mum enjoyed the food and activities but the best was that she made friends and wants to keep in touch with them.

My sister moved into Dryclough Manor after a short stay in hospital for respite. The care, professionalism and knowledge has been out of this world. My sister loves all activities and we visit weekly to join in with the quiz. Nothing is ever too ,much trouble and the staff always go that little extra mile to make the residents smile. All I can say is please book a visit to go and view this lovely home.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such kind comments - your sister was a pleasure to care for. I will pass your kind review on to the staff.

After viewing several homes we decided on Dryclough Manor for my wife, my daughter and I settled for this lovely home. My wife is very settled and content there, she has made friends with a group of ladies who welcome us each time we visit and share stories of their day. I always find the staff friendly and approachable each time I visit. My wife's room is a good size and always smells clean. The managers have shown professionalism whenever I have approached them for advice. As my own health is failing rather quickly I would most certainly consider a room for myself in the near future.
Thank you for taking the time to share such wonderful feedback and we appreciate your kind words about our team. If there is anything further we can do to support you or your family, please don't hesitate to get in touch. Thank you again for your lovely comments.

Dad moved into Dryclough Manor from another care setting. The progress he has made in the past few weeks has been phenomenal. He is happy, eating well and back up on his feet, he was even spotted having a little dance with one of the carers. Dad's room is nice and bright, and the decor is clean and neutral, so I have been able to personalise it to suit his taste. There are plenty of food options and alternatives, Dad can be a fussy eater; however, he has never gone hungry. I will certainly consider this home for my mother in the near future.

My sister moved into Dryclough Manor in January 2024. Although we had looked around several homes, we did not feel as welcome as we did as soon as we stepped into Dryclough Manor. We were able to see first-hand the staff interacting with residents and how attentive they were. There was a music quiz in the main lounge when we visited and we could see how happy and cared for the residents looked. My sister recently celebrated a birthday and the cook made her a beautiful, personalised cake, she still talks to me about this weeks later. I feel welcome when I visit and the staff are quick to update me of any changes, the home is warm and bright and no odours. My sister is very happy and that is all that matters to me. I would give this home ten stars if I could.

My mother has settled into life at Dryclough Manor extremely well. The staff have been our guardian angels, and knowing Mum is receiving the very best care is comforting to us as a family. We see regularly how well the staff interact with service users, each other and also us visitors. We never feel like a hindrance while we are there and can ring for updates anytime we like. I chose Dryclough Manor as we felt the friendly atmosphere as soon as we walked in. We witnessed the activities and how happy everyone appeared. I would certainly recommend Dryclough Manor to anyone looking for a carehome.

He was very well looked after and I was never made to feel like a hinderance when I phoned everyday. The staff are very proactive and understand their residents' needs....
My husband, who has dementia, was admitted into Dryclough Manor for respite while I recovered from surgery as I am his main carer. He was very well looked after and I was never made to feel like a hinderance when I phoned everyday. The staff are very proactive and understand their residents' needs. My husband continues to talk about 'the hotel' (as he called it) and it is warming to know how much he enjoyed his stay. I would certainly choose Dryclough Manor in the future should he require respite again or possibly a permanent placement.
