Staff always smiling and patient with residents. House clean and tidy. Staff always ready to listen and answer any worries or queries of relatives. Nothing too much trouble for them.

Mum has only been here since the beginning of July but in that time she has become one of the Norton House Family. Mum has Alzheimer's and so unfortunately I had to make the decision for her to go in a Care Home as she wasn't able to look after herself properly and I think I made the right choice.
Because Norton House is a small Care Home, the staff work hard but still have time to spend with the residents, they are so friendly and careing, with plenty smiles and hugs for anyone that might be needing one that particular day. The food is good, lots of activities to keep everyone occupied and mum is no longer lonely. Unfortunately because of the nature of her disease she doesn't remember a lot of what she has been doing, but I know she is living her best life and have no worries recommending Norton House to anyone looking for somewhere to place their loved one.

Nothing but positive experiences every time we visit mum. The staff are all excellent, well trained, welcoming and friendly. I was dreading my mum having to go into residential care, but Norton House has made the whole process easier and provided great piece of mind. Thoroughly recommend.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Genuinely amazing!


My grandma had been living at home alone with carers going in, but it got to a point where that wasn't manageable anymore for anyone.


Norton House were welcoming and accommodating from the off.


The thing that I personally liked the most though was how straight forward they

felt, no pushy sales pitch, no promising the world, which was refreshing in the middle of running around care homes and trying to get a solution together.


Also there were (and are now) a few rooms being refurbished, which was nice to see.


The whole building has nice homely feel to it, not clinical.


My grandma raves about the food and staff, and her quality of life is night and day from how she was at home from my point of view and hers.


I can even visit with my grandmas dog too.


Its obvious the staff genuinely care about what they do and why they do it.

She has been with Norton House for 2 years, and has been so very well looked after. The staff are so caring and loving and have made her feel very special as a valued resident. The home is a pleasure to visit and we are always offered a drink and a smile. Her needs and safeguarding are very well met.
The staff, systems and support network appear very well thought out, and give confidence that her health and welfare needs are continually being assessed and delivered. Her room and the communal areas are always clean and recent refurbishments have resulted in high quality communal living space.
We know that she is in very good hands and fully enjoys her Norton House experience in all respects.

The staff at Norton House are really excellent. And I think that's what makes the home so special. Everyone is kind, caring and they go the extra mile for the residents, however challenging their needs. And always with a smile. The home itself is well kept, with a beautiful new extension and living
areas for the residents to sit and socialise, together or with relatives. As a family we have real peace of mind that my Dad is well cared for and happy at Norton House. I recommend the home highly!

I can't rate Norton House highly enough. They take time and effort to get to know each resident individually and care so much about their welfare. It's more like being part of a family. I can visit my mum and enjoy our time together without the worries I had before she went into Norton House. She is
so well looked after by such a friendly and caring team. All the rooms are kept clean and tidy and nothing is too much trouble. I am also kept well informed of how my Mum is doing.

My aunty has been in the home for four years and every visit is a pleasant one. The staff are very accommodating and the surroundings are always comfortable. My aunty is active and suffers from dementia, but she freely roams in a safe, secure environment. The meals are made fresh and eaten in a lovely
dining area. Overall, as a family, we are very happy with her situation.

My uncle recently had to leave Norton House Care Home as they were unable to meet his needs. A new setting was found as quickly as possible, but there is a process to go through. The staff cared for my uncle to the best possible standards, even though it was difficult for them. His transition to his
new home was well organised and they ensured his safety at all times, for which I am extremely grateful.

We needed a place for Mum at short notice and these guys pulled out all the stops and got her a place - Thank you!
She was well looked after, well fed and all her personal needs tended to.
The staff regularly checked in on her and made sure she was ok, they kept her company. Their attention to detail
and routine checks proved invaluable.
We were regularly updated on her condition and we were listened to/helped with Mum's 'individual' needs. I've nothing but good stuff to report about Norton House, you have my thanks.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.763)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.763) out of 10 for Norton House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 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 4.763 for Norton House is calculated as follows: ( (236 Excellents x 5) + (64 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 304 Ratings = 4.763
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Norton House is based on 26 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 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    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 27 registered maximum number of service users is 5.4, which has been reached with 26 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.
