A family environment. Care staff are very responsive to the needs of residents. My aunt is always very well dressed and her personal hygiene is excellent. I have observed the meals being served and they are of good quality with several choices offered. The staff are always visible, complaints (if any)
are discussed and rectified immediately. Staff always willing to discuss family needs.

Review from Sarah G (Wife of Resident) published on 11 April 2019 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My husband, who has a diagnosis of Alzheimer's (confirmed diagnosis 2013), had been attending Beeston View for daycare 2 x weekly since September 2018. He became more troubled and psychotic around Christmas, and after a month of trialling different doses of medication and lots of visits to the psychiatrist,
I was offered a respite bed for my husband at Beeston View. The family and myself were concerned he would not sett, but the staff were amazing, and by the end of the first week he surprised us all. He was made permanent after 2 weeks and he has settled so well - all down to the care and attention of the wonderful staff.

My father has stayed here for respite on a couple of occasions and has settled well which is a great comfort to me. The staff are always happy to help. My father enjoys to walk and his mobility is not the best but he loves the garden and also can view it from the room. It's clean and the food is good
and he is always complimentary about the place which speaks for itself.

I have been extremely impressed by the care provided to my mother in law who suffers with advancing Alzheimer’s. The location, its design and layout along with the exceptional staff have provided some peace of mind to my wife and family during a really difficult time. Thanks to all.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Excellent care. Carers always visible and helping residents with daily tasks. They sit and eat with the residents at meal times, giving help when needed. They encourage everyone to eat together and socialise in the lounge. My mother-in-law is treated with respect and always clean and tidy, as are all
the residents. The rooms are spacious and have en-suite facilities. Carers are always willing to sit and speak with you regarding your relative and are very knowledgeable of dementia care. The whole atmosphere is very transparent from the management down to the carers. Visitors are welcome anytime. The place is very clean. The dining room has lovely linen tableware with napkins - a nice touch.

Review from J I (Daughter of Resident) published on 2 January 2019 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
A very caring environment. My mother has been in Beeston View for over two months. She is kept safe and receives excellent care. The carers are attentive, polite and exceedingly kind to all residents. The rooms are large for residents and have en-suite facilities. You can bring in your own furniture
to ensure familiarity. The meals are varied and residents offered a choice. Food/snacks/fruit on offer all day, plus tea/coffee/fruit juice/water. Medical staff are on call and they have connections with a local doctor who visits each week. The open plan dining and lounge area is good and staff are always visible in these areas. Residents are encouraged to eat and socialise together. Activities are arranged. My only criticism is that towels are not always available in ensuite but are supplied immediately if you ask a carer. In-house hairdresser.

I have just visited my mum and want to say a huge thank you to the manager and her team.
Mum is flourishing and every member of the team deserves praise and thanks. Mum is treated with respect, dignity and they help her maintain her little garden outside her patio door. This has been such a difficult
year for Mum and all of us. With the support of Barchester Iddenshall Hall, we are building happy experiences each time we visit. Mum adores the staff and above all the manager. Thank you for your compassion, understanding and support to the family.

My husband has been spending one day per week in daycare. The staff have been extremely pleasant and helpful. We have looked for a slightly cheaper option for full-time care, we found the commitment for his years off-putting.

Review from D M (Daughter of Resident) published on 14 March 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother was a resident at Beeston View for the last four years. During that time she received excellent quality care and was always treated with kindness and dignity. The behaviour of residents in the dementia unit is often quite challenging and yet throughout that, the staff are able to relate to
and to treat the residents in a friendly and caring manner - never losing sight of the human being trapped inside.
The environment is pleasant, with enough space and the food is good. I am very grateful that my mother was able to have such good care during this last phase of her life and I could not give Beeston View a higher rating for the service it provides. If asked to give a score, it would be 5/5.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My mother is well cared for and is safe which is a comfort to us as a family. Staff are on the whole lovely. We have had one or two issues but these were quickly addressed when raised.


Food is good. Cold drinks are available in rooms and hot drinks brought regularly.


Rooms vary- mum has a small

window which she has difficulty seeing out of. She has some of her own furniture and cleaning could be a little better.


Although mum is given an all over wash daily and is bathed, I would like the latter to be more often.

I find it a good stay on the whole. The staff on night duty were really good, bringing me cups of tea when asked for one.


One or two of the carers were a bit unhelpful and impatient but on the whole, I would rate it excellent with good food. Plenty of choice as well.

My 95 year old dad has just spent his first two weeks in his first care home. He was anticipating that moment with dread. But he seems to have enjoyed it. This is because of the amazing care staff who with a blend of professionalism, good humour and dedication make what my dad thought would be a terrible
experience into - really - quite a good one.
Well done all of you.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.371)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.371) out of 10 for Barchester Iddenshall Hall and Beeston View Memory Lane Community is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 8 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 4.571 for Barchester Iddenshall Hall and Beeston View Memory Lane Community is calculated as follows: ( (81 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) + (13 Satisfactorys x 3) + (4 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 105 Ratings = 4.571
  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 4.8 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Barchester Iddenshall Hall and Beeston View Memory Lane Community is based on 8 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 = 3.8
    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 39 registered maximum number of service users is 7.8, which has been reached with 8 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.
