Overall Experience

Our Aunty was admitted as an end of life bed ridden resident in February of 2022. Thanks to the dedicated, caring and compassionate care team, she enjoyed a dignified quality of life for a further 8 months. Our family will always be grateful for the sensitivity and support they provided for her and

us in these last precious months. They really are angels in disguise.

Overall Experience

My Mum receives the best care possible at Highcliffe. The staff are always on hand to ease any worries I have. Their dedication, love and care have nursed my Mum back to good health and she is so happy here. I am always made welcome and the peace of mind I have is wonderful. I can not thank all the

staff enough.

Overall Experience

A lovely independently-run home with caring staff and management who treat the residents and their loved ones with unlimited care, empathy and love not just another number. I would not hesitate in recommending Highcliffe to friends and family.

Review from Dave S (Son of Resident) published on 8 July 2020 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Is this care home perfect? No.
Is it as close as I’ve ever found? Yes.
My dad lived at Highcliffe for a little over a year before his passing. In that time the standard of his care was consistently good. Like any care home, there is room for improvement but one thing that can be of absolutely no doubt

is how much the owner and every member of staff care and try their best for both residents and family. We managed to get dad home to Highcliffe when the time came for him to pass and within minutes the staff had done more for him than they had in a week in hospital. They also sat with him when we couldn’t be there so he was never left alone. Some staff even came in unpaid to spend time with him. As a family, we couldn’t ask for any more love and care for my dad and we will be eternally grateful.
Highcliffe is a homely home. It isn’t part of a chain and the owner who has many years of experience lives on-site and interacts with the residents. They’ll always welcome visitors.
