My mother was in respite care for 17 days. My two brothers visited each day, they praised the whole experience. The carers went above and beyond, mum bonded with every carer. Mum enjoyed all the food, not one complaint. She also enjoyed all activities at 95 years old, that is amazing. Everywhere was immaculate thoroughly cleaned every day. Mum would definitely stay here again.

This is an excellent care home with great activities that staff make so much fun, always finding time to sit and chat with the residents. Every effort goes into Upton Grange to ensure the best care is given at all times, when I visit every member of staff from management to house keeping makes me feel so welcome. The place is pristine and very comfortable. I have made the best choice for my mum she is so happy here.
My mum moved into UG 4months ago after a difficult hospital admission. She had lost much of her mobility and faced a long wait for rehabilitation at Catterbridge. UG were keen to have Mum return and reassured us they could help. They have been true to their word: Mum has regained her previous...
The care is outstanding. Staff genuinely care and go above and beyond, taking the time to know residents as individuals and their families. Quizzes, memory games and chair exercises are enjoyable and keep residents active and engaged.
UG has a real family feel, with lovely residents, relatives and staff and a wonderful sense of community. One resident's relative helped create a little garden outside Mum's room, with a trellis and flowers, because she loves gardening. Such kindness sums up UG.
Every time I leave, I feel happy knowing Mum is safe, cared for and, most importantly, happy.

My mum recently moved from respite care into a long term stay at Upton Grange, and the experience has been outstanding. The staff are excellent - warm, engaging, and genuinely empathetic. It's clear they take real pride in the care they provide and build meaningful connections with the residents. Upton Grange itself is bright, clean, and welcoming, and Mum's room is always well looked after. The food is very good, and it's been wonderful to see Mum putting on weight and enjoying her meals again. One thing that truly sets Upton Grange apart is how the team also treat my Dad when he visits. They look after him with the same kindness and respect they show Mum, which means a great deal to us as a family. Any questions or concerns are responded to quickly and thoughtfully, and we feel completely safe in the knowledge that Mum is being cared for and very well looked after. We're incredibly grateful for the compassion and support shown every day.
My mother is very well looked after which makes it easier for me to fill another role in my life 'being a grandparent'. It is also great that there is a weekly GP visit as there ahs just been a chest infection and antibiotics have been administered. The staff are very friendly and I trust them.

We have been very pleased with how well Wendy has settled in to her new care home. All the staff have been very friendly/helpful in allowing her to settle in. She is gradually making friends with the existing residents and enjoying her new 'home'.

Staff are so friendly & welcoming. They have not only helped & supported my mum settling in quickly, but they also supported us as a family to navigate things practically & emotionally. Thank you so much. Mum has settled in really quickly & she appreciated so much the effort staff put in to making Upton Grange feel like home, especially with her garden area. Thank you for everything.
Mum aged 91 (a reluctant resident at first) has settled very well into her new surroundings. This has been largely due to the emathetic, friendly, efficient and experienced staff. As a family we have been hugely impressed with level of care and communication.

Lovely place to leave my mum to stay for a 2 week respite stay. First person I met was Carla, who right throughout the stay was always happy to help with any questions. Also Sue one of the carers was so good at putting my mums mind at rest. The home ran smoothly and always helpful staff on hand.

Mum has recently moved into Upton Grange and is settling in well. She has been welcomed so warmly by all members of the staff. They have all shown such kindness and empathy to mum and are willing to help her with any of our needs as well as mums. She always looks well cared for and her room is spotless. Mum is always been to get back to the home for her meals if we have taken her out anywhere. It's lovely to see and such she is getting in to Upton Grange so quickly. Thank you.

I will be forever grateful to the manager and deputy manager for their guidance, warmth and professionalism when it came to finding somewhere for mum. From first enquiry I knew I was in safe hands. The atmosphere at Upton Grange is like a warm hug as soon as you step inside. Superb staff throughout, every visit it feels like one big happy family. I leave knowing Mum is happy, safe and secure. Speaking to other families, they all resonate the same "wouldn't leave our loved one anywhere else". Upton Grange was a beacon of light at a dark time.
During an extended stay in hospital it became clear that our Mum would no longer be able to live independently. My sister and I had no idea what to do for the best but on a friend's recommendation, we called at Upton Grange in the hope of a little guidance, if nothing else. We were totally...
During an extended stay in hospital it became clear that our Mum would no longer be able to live independently. My sister and I had no idea what to do for the best but on a friend's recommendation, we called at Upton Grange in the hope of a little guidance, if nothing else. We were totally unprepared for the superb support that we received on that day which subsequently led to Mum moving into the most welcoming family environment. After 93 years of total independence, we fully expected a lengthy period of adjustment however the friendliness and professionalism of the whole team means that Mum (and we) now see ourselves as part of the family. The expertise and good humour of every member of the team from carers, cleaners, cooks, team leaders and management contribute to this home-from-home atmosphere. We are grateful that Mum is in the care of these very special people.
