Find overall find the nursing care home adequate, staff seem to be nice, and residents are well looked after. When visiting seems to be quite clean, disappointing for parking, pity there aren't more spaces.

I have been coming to the home for 12 months to see my mate. He seems to love the place and the staff, who all seem to like him. He also enjoys all his meals, and all the staff usually make him special meals, which he enjoys. A lovely place with lovely dedicated staff.

My sister became a resident at Woodlands Court in June 2022, at that time she was fading fast and with dementia was becoming unsafe. Since becoming a resident at Woodlands her improvement is unbelievable - she is now active and as well as she can even joins in all the activities which are too numerous to mention, most importantly, she is safe. The lady in charge of activities is an absolute gem. The staff are kindness itself, not only to the residents but to visitors as well. Nothing is too much trouble. Woodlands Court is a very happy place.
