High Brake House provides a safe, friendly and homely environment assisting people entering a new chapter of their lives. A journey undertaken together with compassion, dignity, friendship, support and laughter, they aim to improve a person’s wellbeing physically and emotionally in a family setting.
High Brake House is a family-run concern and has been operated by the same people for 21 years. Since then, the home has grown and expanded and now has the capability to look after 35 residential people.
The home offers state of the art facilities, all bedrooms are single en suite, many with full wet rooms, and gardens are easily accessible and can be enjoyed by all. Fibre broadband and CCTV are also available. With a variety of choices for meals and snacks, food is prepared and home cooked in-house in a state-of-the-art kitchen.
Residents are welcome to bring their own items into the care home, this can include pictures, chairs, televisions and items they have cherished in their own home, ensuring their space feels personal to them. Green fingered residents are also encouraged to bring their own flowers for the garden. You are not just a ‘Room Number', you are a person in High Brake House.
Residents are offered regular stimulation, this can vary from a one-on-one chat to a person with limited mobility in their own bedroom, chatting to them about their achievements, past interests and their family, to outings out from the care home to local eateries and shops for the more able residents.
The home also offers services such as the ‘fine dining experience’. This allows a private table to be booked once a month for a resident to use, they can invite friends, family and other residents if they wish to enjoy a meal of their choice in a beautiful, quiet setting. They dedicate a member of the staffing team to serve you the meal and address any help you might need. There are also regular parties in the home.

The long-term care my Mum has received over several years has been outstanding and I am always confident that she is well cared for and living in a wonderful environment. Even during some of the most challenging times with Mum, they have always been willing to work through the issues in partnership.
The management team and all the staff are wonderful and, even through the challenges of Covid, were exceptional.
Mum's accommodation is modern, clean, and spacious with great en-suite facilities and feels very homely. The house in general is meticulously clean and inviting. There is always a warm welcome for visitors too.
I would have no hesitation in recommending High Brake to anyone.
Nothing is too much trouble and everything is done with a smile on the face.
It's a tough job but they all do it brilliantly.
Thank you.

The home is...
The home is clean and inviting, rooms are a good size, the garden is a lovely sun trap, and the food is great.
There are activities to join in if inclined, and there is a regular hairdresser and chiropractor.
Each room has a direct dial phone so I am able to speak with Dad at any time which really is a bonus.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend High Brake House to anyone.
I’ve thought long and hard before writing this review because, let’s face it, nobody will ever care for your loved one as well as you would if you were able to do so. That said the management team at High Brake House will do their very best to do just that! The first time I visited it immediately...
I’ve thought long and hard before writing this review because, let’s face it, nobody will ever care for your loved one as well as you would if you were able to do so. That said the management team at High Brake House will do their very best to do just that! The first time I visited it immediately felt like “home” and not “a home”. Visitors are free to come and go just as they would were the person in their own home. Rooms can be personalised with décor, bedding and small furniture, nothing was too much trouble to help Mum feel settled very quickly. All the staff are friendly and know all the residents by name. Management takes onboard suggestions and any concerns and are very hands-on in delivering care. Mum deserves the best and I made the right choice.
Thank you for your review it is really appreciated and we will pass it onto the team.
